Double bubble?

Post by VForcer » Sun Feb 13, 2011 7:28 am

I don't suppose anyone has a picture of a 3TJ/4DX sporting a double bubble screen??

More than likely a silly question (only had bike a day), will a screen advertised for an FZR400 3TJ RRSP fit my 4DX? :oops:

Thanks,
Rob

I got mne from Skidmarx and yes a 4DX screen will fit. The 4DX is the official import whereas a 3TJ is the Japan home market model

Probably be better when it's polished and if your feeling brave paint the inside black like the Yamaha one

The Double Bubble is good for me, I use a tank bag quite a bit so it puts the wind up a bit.

I know what you mean though

I love the look of the standard screen. But for road racing the double is best. You can get behind it with no problems and Im only 5ft 5".

Well the jury's still out for me with whether to double trouble the FZR...

At first i thought i'd be changing it for sure, but i'm not convinced it will acheive the look as i expect it too... When i put one on my blade (it had a horrible flip screen on it when i got it), it made the bike look so much more aggresive up front:

Looking at this pic again (can i just say that i massively regret selling this bike last year :down: ), the shape of the screen suits the bike and the black screen goes well with the black bits of the bike.

Thinking about one on a red & white only FZR, and having seen some pics, i'm not convinced it won't disrupt the lines of the bike :whistle: I think the black screen on the black bike does work though btw :peace:

My screen is a black tint, you can see through it but as you can see it's very dark. Have a look at a grey tint screen (on the skidmarx site) I think it would be fine on a red / white bike
