I am thinking about mounting a windshield on my blur 220. I can feel a good amount of drag on my chest and think that a proper screen would add at least 5 mph I have read what I could find about windshields for the 220i. It sounds like the Prima has some possible drawbacks.
I saw that some used a Puig 992 now called the City Touring.
Is it this one? Any other options? I'm looking for more of a fly screen. It made a huge difference on my Buddy.

Any comments regarding increased top end, buffeting noise or suggestions appreciated!

Re: Windshields...again
When I bought my '11 Blur 220i this past summer it came with the stock Genuine Blur windshield which looks very similar to the one in your picture. I don't have a before and after comparison to go by but it does make for a comfortable ride. While it's on the low side it does deflect the wind over the top of my helmet which probably means I'm getting an extra 1 - 2 mph. My gps confirmed top speed is 67 mph.BuddyRaton wrote:I am thinking about mounting a windshield on my blur 220.

Buy a Puig at an USA Company???
I am interested in the Puig City Touring too , but I only found one place in Canada to buy it.. Did not find another site in USA to buy that particular screen?? I just really do not like the Genuine one if I can help it... What did you find?? I do not know if we can buy directly from PUIG USA???
