Puig Sport Screen

Took a 60 mile ride with the new windscreen. I like it. Less turbulence at highway and highly illegal speeds. Noise is similar but might be a hair less. Looks good too.

Where did you buy your screen? I was literally looking at getting one today and found your thread, perfect timing. Less turbulence sounds good, can you compare how much lower the wind hits you compared to the stock windscreen? Or, maybe, can you measure the length of the Puig?

Also, how was the install? Did you have to pull out the rubber grommets, or was it literally just a swap with the stock one?

I'm also looking at their Touring screen as an option, but I think that one only raises the wind impact "a few centimeters"... so probably an inch. I'm not sure that is any better, though it may still be cleaner air.

I got the windscreen at Motosport, Puig Sport Windscreen | MotoSport

The Puig is an inch shorter than stock and also significantly narrower at the top by 5 inches (see the before and after comparison on this link, Sport Screen for motorcycle SUZUKI GSX-S1000GT 2023 - Puig Hi-Tech Parts ).

The wind hits just a little lower just under my helmet. I think the Puig has less turbulence since it is narrower and has wind deflectors built in. It's not significantly less but noticeable. I bought it mostly for aesthetics and based on my experience with my Kawasaki Ninja 1000 which had an adjustable screen. I rarely raised that screen to the higher settings due to turbulence and noise. I think the touring screen would cause that and from others' reviews on here it appears so.

Installation was simple. Remove screws and washers, remove the screen, pull out grommets and install in reverse order.

BTW, the grommet pulling part wasn't my favorite part. Here's my advice:

Hello. First of all, I want to apologize for not having any pictures available to post. Installing my new WRS touring screen was supposedly an easy project that quickly turned into an exercise in emotional intelligence management. Turns out, I still suck at it. Taking pictures was the last...

I had no issue pulling the grommets out. 3 stayed in the bike and one came out with the screen. Just gently pulled the 3 out by hand.

Thank you for the detailed replies, I didn't realize Puig had that before/after slider on their site, that's pretty helpful. Ok, I'm gonna try the sports screen, I do like how it looks and if it smooths out the air, then even better. I still may try the Puig Touring screen later too (after summer is over), maybe the cleaner and slightly higher air would still be an improvement over stock.

Good deal I enjoy my puig touring immensely myself

Could you summarize the difference you feel with the wind, versus the stock shield? Smoother and slightly higher, or is there more to it?

I’m 5’8 so the stock screen was fine for me. I would just find myself leaning on tank often to avoid wind more on highway. Which is 90% of my commute
I ordered puig, I pretty much can sit up and it feels like it did when I was leaning down. Pretty clean air for me. I wear ear plugs and Sena music, I hear music crystal clear.

feels like a scooter now in comfort lol
