I haven't yet, but probably should sometime soon.

About the only value I can add to this discussion is that Gustafsson made the OE windscreen/windshield on the early S2's (as well as the RS/RSS bikes).

I'm interested in what others have to say as well,

My S2 came with the Zero Gravity windshield and it works well, looks very similar to stock. According to their website they are still available,

I got a Gustafsson a few years back for my S2. Bought the smoked +4", for winter time (kept the stock one for summer). Perfect tint match, great fit, and like Brankin said...they made some of the originals so they make 'em right. bikescreen.com is their website, IIRC.

I have the +4 Gustafsson on the S2t and feel all it does is funnel the air a bit higher which in my case is not high enough...I tried bracing the sides but no help. I have an fairing spoiler add on on the S2 stock windshield and I like it better. The problem is I have never been able to find another one. It is black rubber made by Moto Fizz/ Napoleon.

No reply as of yet from Gustafsson{$120.00 on web site}
Rifle as pictured above in 15" or 18" clear available @ $130 and tinted $140.00
Steel Horse $80.00{appears to be made by Zero gravity }
Zero Gravity..$100.00
Im considering the 15" Rilfe version as it really looks functional.

I have been considering the Rilfe also. Let us know if you get one. I would like to see what it looks like on the bike.

I just bought a Zero Gravity also mainly because they were predrilled and the others you had to buy a plastic bit and drill your self. Fit perfect and that what was on it.

That windscreen looks really similar to the factory screen on my 83 Guzzi SP. I've ridden behind this windscreen for 29 years and I still love it. The wind blast hits me right on the very top of my helmet and I can still easily look over it when riding. I'll bet the screen you have the pics of will give you similar coverage on your S2.

I've ordered a dark smoke ZG for my S2. Should have it in couple more weeks. Put a dark smoke ZG on my S3 and looks nice, fit well, etc.
