That is definitely the best looking adv windscreen.

I had the same issues of being upside down on the Scrambler but not really using it to the potential I knew it had. I went and swapped for a T120 Black since I knew I just wasn't going to make use of the bike, but that 1200XE is such an awesome bike.

Yeah - honestly, it might be a good thing for me. I think the delay needed to pay down the scrambler will let the reviews of the new Tiger 1200 come out and see if that's something I can consider when I'm in a better financial situation.

Great review. ✌🏼

Thanks Erik! Yeah, I really like this screen. There's a decal you can order for the front that hides the speedo and what-not. But I kind of like how it looks without as well. It's very un-intrusive and depending on angle you look at the bike, you can almost not even see it. The more I ride with it, the more I realize how much it's actually doing.

Such beautiful bikes. I use the same trick with the tape anytime I take my handlebars off or want to fiddle around with adjusting levers. If they would put a monoshock on that I may consider it myself. I just don't get the dual shocks anymore it's almost 2022.

Oh, I got them for sure from ajcyclesny . com (just written that way since I don't think YT allows links. But just search by model and then select "Mirrors" and there are quite a few options.

Don't know about the American bike market at the moment but here in the UK there are some really nice second hand Multistrada 1260's for sale. A lot of Ducati owners are buying up the new V4's and part exchanging their old ones. If most of your riding is road that's what that bikes really good at.

Hi.. I’ve recently purchased and fitted the Unit Garage screen to my 1200XE. It does a great job of keeping the wind off my chest but I found the wind noise created by the screen to be absolutely ’ve taken it off unfortunately.

Yes that is the Tec 2 into 1. I love it because as long as you don't take the baffle out, it's not super loud. It's one of those "when you get on the gas it barks" type exhaust.

I did do that at the same time as adding the DNA filter so could have been the combination.

That is definitely a tough one. I will say that the looks of this bike are unique and it is nice to usually be the only person at the local spots with this bike. Having said that though, for confident riding off-road (where the scrambler is one heavy SOB), the Tiger 900 would have been a better choice I think. I can't speak to the t7 since I've never rode one. But, if I was buying new right now and didn't have a bike, I'd probably go with the Tiger 900. I'd feel much more confident off-road when I'm on my own (as far as being able to pick it up if I fall).

That screen was hopeless for me. Caused massive buffeting. Forunately the blade broke in half when I dropped the bike. So it's not a very flexible or robust material. I've recently fitted a Dart Marlin which, for me, works well and is adjustable on it's mounts for angle. It comes up about 12" from the top of the headlamp shell. I'm 5'10" with average proportions. Another thing to mention is that I saw a video recently where the guy had mounted his GPS on the crossbar of the frame and the frame broke. Unit Garage told him that he shouldn't have mounted the GPS there. So they didn't honour the warranty. Not good.
