I need to replace the windscreen on one of my S2 bikes...does anyone have any experience with a S2 windscreen from Zero-Gravity? my other S2 has one from Gustafsson and they made the originals(?), however, while shopping around I found that Zer=Gravity actually has a few in stock for the S2...

I have used Zero Gravity before, but its been about 17 years or so...

any one have one from them for their S2?

as a point of reference the Zero-Gravity one is about 35.00 cheaper...

My "other" S2 has a Gustafsson one and it seems like a nice piece, though maybe a little thin..?

Thanks

I have a Zero Gravity on my S2 and it seems like it is of good quality, I like the Zero gravity I have on my S3 as well.

Does the zero gravity offer the windscreen in other colors beside gray/smoke?

There are slight differences between the brands. I've got both brands on both S2 and S3 bikes.
The Zero G parts are the best optically, no distortion and I do really like the extended version I've got on my M3T (M2 with S3 fairings and bags). It's a tiny bit off on fit, I needed to file the holes on one side to allow the screen to fit perfectly flush. Less expensive too.
The Gustafasson is OEM on both S2 and S3, thicker, perfect fit and some really wacky optics. The stock S3 screen was really wavy, S2's don't seem to have it as bad. Slightly more expensive, may now be special order part. not stocked.
I believe you can order either in other colors / tints.

I bought a Zero Gravity from American Sportbike around a year ago (OEM tint, looks great) - they had it in stock. Now that they're closing and selling inventory, I would check with them just in case they have another

I call Al for everything! sometimes just to see if I can catch him with a few minutes open and chat about a new bike I bought...

I did not think about calling him for a zero gravity windscreen! DANG!


but I did end up buying a Zero-Gravity direct form the source, already shipped, they had it in stock. now Ill have one of each for comparison!
