Speedmaster Which Screen And Exhaust For New Speedmaster?

Can’t comment on the screen because I don’t want to fit one
But I’m interested in those exhausts
I’ve got some cocktail shakers in the garage which I removed from my BPOS (09 Speedmaster) and gonna look into fitting them if I can
They only cost £100 if I remember correctly

 

They look very similar externally to my Aussie made "Foran" pipes on my 09' America !

 

I have a Dart flyscreen which adds some buffering. Was the biggest i wanted to fit, but if you are doing mainly highway riding, you may want to up it to the slightly larger one.
If tone and performance is what you are after, it would be worth looking at an Xpipe to remove catalytic converter, I installed new headers and cans.

 

Mine is the dark tint flyscreen, Marlin is next size up, great quality and looks like standard.
Xpipe and cat not too much work, especially if you follow the utube video. Cat takes most of the rumble out and throttles the breathing.

 

Mine is the stock screen. Does it work?It's ok....I'd be interested to hear how Dilligaf finds it without a screen though.

That's my experience too, so I got a Dart Marlin screen for my Speedmaster a couple of weeks ago. Not done any long runs on it yet but I can say that with the screen, travelling at 70mph is way more physically comfortable than 60 without the screen, and I'm sure it would work well above 70 if you were that way inclined

There is one big drawback though, the turbulence is very noisy even with my earplugs, and completely masks the engine noise at about 50mph, making me feel less 'connected' to the bike. I'm not sure I would want to use the screen except for long trips where I'm just trying to get somewhere quick rather than enjoying the ride. As the screens is easily removed and attached I'm thinking that I'd take it on tours and only add it when needed, and also invest in some more sound blocking ear plugs (my current ones are Senner MotoPro).

I'm also wondering if the smaller Classic screen would have turbulence lower down away from my helmet. So when I next get out on my bike I'm going to move the screen right down so it touches the headlamp shell and see if I can detect any difference.

One final note, when I bought my screen I found that Dart were selling it cheaper on Amazon than on their own site, which seems like madness on their part being as Amazon take a big cut on top of that too.

 

My previous 09 Speedmaster had a small dart screen on it
Rode it for quite a while with it fitted and when I removed it cos I didn’t like the look of it I couldn’t say that it made any difference anyway
I have had many bikes with fairings but prefer to out in the elements and can ride all day without any adverse effects
My limiting factor is usually my backside and I do miss being able to stand up on the pegs because of the feet forward riding position
Used to stand up on the pegs on my Fazer1000 at any speed
Might look into fabricating some pegs further back on NUDGER if numb bum becomes a problem but so far so good

 

Hi there, I have fitted a dart fly screen to my 2018 speedmaster it’s so much more comfortable at speed and easy to fit.

 

Which screen did you fit? Dart do three: Classic, Marlin and Piranha.

 

Hi I fitted the classic dark tint

 

I fitted the dart classic to mine, a british company, and its fine for me up to around 70-80 even with a shoei open face helmet.

 

I installed the Dart Marlin on my 2016 Speedmaster I’m a shorter guy and i still feel it doesn’t help much with wind resistance. But really like the way it looks!!

 

Madstad 18" windshield. Company located in Brooksville, Florida. Mounted in my 18 Speedy. Asthetics aside, can't be beat it for highway cruising. A couple of options are available too. I won't ride without it. It comes off, so if I want the bike to look pleasing , I take it off.

 

Mirrors seat and stripped back rear are very pleasing on the eye. Lovely ride Orie

 

Thank you.

 

I am in Land O Lakes, maybe I will take a ride up to Brooksville see if I can get them to show me what the different heights would look like on the T1oo?
