just installed short screen ...

ciao a tutti -

just got finished installing the ducati performance short windscreen part number 96769708B.

fit is slightly better than the taller windscreen, so there is not the chance of cracking the plastic when tightening the mounting screws.

looks much better than the taller screen, imho ... so i will most likely be using this short screen more than the taller one. the taller one works nicely at slab traveling, as it really cuts down a lot of the wind in the chest ... but it is overkill for twisty local stuff.

ciao,
johnc

Your pics suck and although I can't see shit in those pics, you're way too tall for any wind screen to make a difference.

and your right about me being too tall for the screen to do any real wind blocking ... but it looks soooooo cool
