After waiting four weeks for a boat to bring this thing stateside, I've finally got it installed. Finish of the parts is fantastic. Fit is not as good as expected. It went on fine but isn't exactly symmetric. But it is a Guzzi, so I'm not that concerned.

Don't get me wrong, I think it looks good too.  Just wanted to share with anyone that might be interested that mine wasn't symmetric. However it could just be bike-to-bike variations.

A brief ride this evening yielded promising results. Smooth airflow with a good reduction in pressure on my chest.  I'll know much more after the ride to work tommorrow.

Fast and smooth, or you will be caught!

Looks good!  Can't wait to see it in person and find out how you think does at 80MPH.  I think it would look good on my wife's Breva as she is wanting a small screen.  Mid 30's this AM, so it will be a good test.

Excellent.  I like the hand-guards, too.  That is a well-prepared V7.  Clap

Mmmmmmm....  I love it when a plan comes together.

Rode to work this morning in about 40 degree temps; 28 miles with about 25 of it at 75 mph.  This is a great windscreen.  The wind noise has increased a little but the airflow is still very smooth.  I still feel some air on my chest and shoulders but it isn't pushing me back nearly as much as without the screen.  Overall, I'm very impressed with the Dart product.  Two thumbs up  Thumbsup Thumbsup

Edit to add: And the Tapatalk app is fantastic.  The first post was done entirely on my iPhone.  Pretty sweet if you ask me.
