Puig 5881F Dark Smoke Rafale Universal Windshield
J**P
Universal - Noun: defined by Puig as; a garbage product we make that looks nothing like its photo description and doesnt work*
Mine came as an obviously returned item. It had its "quality checked" tape on it. After I took it it had scratches and marks all over it. I figured whatever I'll put it on. Then I realized oh this isn't the product I ordered. Instead of being the traingulated bottom as seen in the picture, I received some squid head looking thing that has three triangular flares at the bottom. Okay I thought, that looks a little wonky, but whatever. Then I noticed how large the thing was! The windscreen looks normal on a 300f so I'm thinking it'll be an excellent sized fit for my cb1000r! NNOPE! Its huuuuge! It sits about 12-14" taller than the bars! What did I receive? So I figured, I have it, lets throw it on the bike and see what it looks like.Well the process took 2 hours, the bar clamps, SUCK! they both broke while I was tightening them down, the metal nut, stripped the inside of the bracket that it slides into so I cannot loosen or tighten them, their permanently attached to my bars now unless I cut them off. On top of this wonderful experience, this is probably the most obnoxious windscreen I've ever had the misfortune of putting on.So after all that's said and done ( just in case you're curious i did have to use a hammer to pound the bar clamps on the bar after they broke because I couldn't get them on/off).IT LOOKS TERRIBLE, AWFUL!From the cockpit, not bad, from the front... Lets jusy say, a birth defect.This was an unfortunate waste of my time and money.

Great buy. One of the best investments on my bike.
Man, I love this thing. It works, and make my bike looks bad-ass to boot. I ride a "beginer" bike: CB300F, naked sport. The universal mounts fit great. Just follow the included instruction. I commute 20 miles in 60-70 mph traffic daily, and before I got the screen, the wind was pretty much hitting me square in the chest and peeling me off the bike. With the screen, the wind is skimming off the top of my helmet. I can hear a little bit of buffeting wind noise, but not so much that it's uncomfortable. Keep in mind I am only 5'6", if you are taller and lankier, the wind protection might not work as well. I also have the lowered / shaved Honda seat, so I do sit about 1" lower, at least according to Honda. If I remember, I will update this post with a picture in the spring when I take my bike out of storage.

Good product, slightly misleading listing
Very pleased with buying and shipping experience, arrived before estimated date. I would, however, like to remark on the "Universal" part of the listing. While it's true that you can install this on any bike that has handlebars, I later discovered that Puig makes the Rafale line of windscreens for bike specific applications. The 5881F, for instance, I believe is made for the FZ8. While I still like the functionality and style it provides my Honda 599, I think this fact should be mentioned in the listing title and description. Hence the missing star.

Good purchase
Fits my CB300F perfectly, takes some jockeying to get it lined up just right but looks good and cuts the wind quite a bit.

Small and effective.
A little tricky to install and worth it. works well at all speeds.

Warranty returned product
I got this cause I had a long ride coming up very disappointed when I open the box and all the hardware was assembled and scratched up and the screen had marks on it already from the returnee before me I was under the impression that this was a new product very disappointed with the smoke and mirror trick they pulled I would have returned it but I needed it for my long ride lesson learned for next time

Easy Install!
Love this product! Installed on my 09 ER-6N and it is fully adjustable and really helps reduce the wind drag on the body!

Ottimo, come tutti i Puig
La quinta stella manca solo perché, essendo "universale", l'attacco non è proprio ottimizzato, per cui resta un po'... invasivo.Ad una prima analisi mi sembrava che il sistema non potesse garantire la necessaria stabilità del parabrezza, invece, usandolo, devo dire che è fermissimo.
