Dart Screens For 2017 EX & RS

[Mandrau_imp]

My Dart Marlin finally came and as I was installing it I noticed that the brackets that came with it extend the headlamp bucket further forward than the brackets that came with the Piranha flyscreen. Using the Piranha brackets, the Marlin screen ends up resting fairly tightly at two adjacent points on the instrument cluster. It takes a bit of fussing but I nestled a couple of small rubber faucet washers at those contact points and the screen is rock solid.

Now my impressions. There is less pressure on mid torso at freeway speed. Wind is felt more around the shoulders. Wind around my head is fairly clean and unbuffetted. Seems I can relax a little more at freeway speeds. For the record I am 5’7” at about 160lbs. I like the Marlin and will keep it on the bike for my upcoming sojourn to Tofino B.C. But when I want go ‘almost naked’ the piranha screen at least seems to reduce the feeling of being blown off the saddle and keeps the bugs out of the instrument cluster.

Be safe out there...
