Just got the Puig Thunder windscreen. I haven't installed it yet. Anybody else have one and any installation pointers ? The instructions are in a couple diffrent language's an leave a bit to be desired.[attachment=5888]
Two fixation points but what else? Hope you don't have to fool with the turn signals. Major pain.
Pulling the indicators are a PIA yea... I found it really helps if you have one of those allen wrenches that you click into your regular 1/4 socket wrench as opposed to the regular L shapped allen wrenches. They are usually 4-6 inches long and magnetized, at least the ones I have from HF are. They really help
It looks like you do have to remove the signals to put it on. It says it comes with new signals to replace the old ones too. http://www.monsterparts.com/pc/0121/Wind.../0121.html

I changed my 2013 signals to 2014 signals and I could not get them off/on without removing (or just moving i) the headlight shell. Not that it was hard though. Just remember to note/mark the position for headlight adjustment.
Your absolutely correct, the windscreen comes with new, slimmer turn signals with a carbon fiber look. As I said the instructions are poor and it looks as if I am to change the allen head bolts with two hex head bolts but with the confined area I'm not sure how I'm supposed to get a wrench in there.
Hummm, I wonder how it's going to look in real life on the bike, please post some pics when done. I have the older style that just connects to the head light bolts. Doesn't interfere with the turn signals. This one looks pretty cool.

I will post a few pics when I put everything on. I am waiting on my adjustable footpegs to arrive and plan to spend a day tinkering. I want another set of bars with a little more pull back but I want to get the windscreen, seat and footpegs on first to see how it sits and where I want them to be.
Puig offers many windscreens for naked bikes. I ordered a 0869F which is dark smoke and 340 mm high and 320 wide, no need to fool with the blinkers. I should have it next week and willi let everyone know how it works. Wanted more than a flyscreen as in my experience they are stylish but not functional, unless you want to keep insects off the clocks.

Ya'll were right, messing with the turn signals was a pain. Not that difficult, just aggravating as heck. I like we the way it come out though. Not the best pics but here you go.
