Compared to the big touring screen there is no difference in weather protection. When you raise that little spoiler to it's full it is as good as the big screen. I havn't been testing it in heavy rain yet, but in normal rain there is no pobs. The great thing about it is that I don't think it shows that much, and when you lower the spoiler completely it kinda looks like the standart low screen, because I in general think that touring screens don't look that fantastic. another positiv thing is that when you lover that spoiler the windpressure increases and that forces me to drive slower on the highway, saving me a lot of money :-)
Futher more you can adjust the spoiler so the turbulence around the screen fits your particular height.

Wether or not it is ugly is a matter of taste, but practical it sure is.

I looked at your pictures again, and I see what you mean about the touring screen being taller. I didn't notice that the first time. Well... maybe the vario is worth the extra $$ after all. I think I will go with the vario based on what you have stated. Thanks for taking the time to post your comments!

Noe,

I noticed in that first picture, you have a custom seat on your CBR. Where did you find a seat that has that kind of riser for the driver?? Is this a custom made seat and where can I get one being in NY? Thanks.

The seat is costum Bagster from France. It came along with the bike when i bought it, but I know that the previous owner designed the seat himself so it fitted the bikes coloures and shiped a standard seat to Bagster.
I think you also can by a prefabricated seat, but without the CBR sign and colours to match the bike.

Try to look at this websites

Hmmm..... Interesting. I thought I had heard of Cima Int. before. They are the ones that put on the International Motorcyle shows each year. I wonder what other things they do? No web site that I can find.... At least Google doesn't have one for them...

thats a pretty cool idea replacing the blinkers and placing them somewhere else i cant wait to see your pics old1000. i also have a 87 and the fairing area around the blinkers is broken, so thats a real clever thing that you brought to the forum thanks.
