You're killing me guys... you bought a naked bike and then want a windscreen to block wind? 
Perhaps time to get a faired bike?
I'm dying for a naked and they don't offer it in the US as the FZ1. Tell ya what... I'll swap my fairing and essentials for your headlight assembly. Stop over and we'll swap out here in my garage!

I have a better idea, just hack your fairing off and bolt on a pair of bad ass streetfighter headlights!!!

I'd really prefer that clean OEM Yamaha look that the FZ8 has.

the real street fighter look is to have a head light donated from a cage grafted on the front of your bike.

But.... I didn't say I wanted a street fighter. I just wanted a naked FZ1.

Yeah, I've seen a lot of protection, especially in sections of motorway.
The appearance of the bike has changed, but I prefer the comfort, at least in winter ...

Practicality must win out in the end...
I know these windscreens are ugly, but look- the fact is that we have to make our bikes rideable.
On my bike, anything above about 75mph you can't keep up for too long, and anything above 100mph is impossible for more than about 5 seconds. I have to admit however, that it's kept me from getting any tickets.
I like the mount on the Puig windscreen; I like it better than all those bars going to the top of the fork triple tree. Check this:

I'm going to buy that one, and maybe make another plexi shield if I just can't get used to the looks of it.
