I know there are quite a few people that are looking for screens for the 02's and I'm sure there are still some people with 01's and older that are looking for a screen with good quality at a decent rate. From other posts, it looks like the 02 screens will be ready soon, does anyone know anyone that can get us a deal on the powerbronze screens.....if we get maybe 10 or 15 buyers....maybe more? How many people do you think want one?:)

I don't think I am going to change my screen, but I am pretty sure I could get a deal together. Give me the spedifics and what you think you would normally pay for it, and I will figure something out...

I was actually thinking of posting this topic yesterday! I'm down. A colored Airflow goes for $69 from kneedraggers. I think ten of us could get about ten bucks off. Whatever the case, like I said, I'm down.

forgot to mention ... I noticed on an R6 forum that Sam at Kneedraggers seems to deal a lot with group buys. You could give them a shout. http://www.kneedraggers.com/ (302)-655-2540 :thumbup

I found a place online that sells them....http://www.ccpperformance.com/ and their prices include shipping 59.99 for colored standard screen 74.99 for colored airflow screen kneedraggers.com sells them as well for 69.00 and I don't know if that includes shipping or not. Think if we get enough people we can maybe save $10? Anyone know where there are better prices?:cool:

I just talked to my guy....He is checking his cost on that item right now. He told me that we should be able to get a pretty sweet deal together. I should have some figures by tomorrow morning..

Coconut Creek is the city south of Boca Raton, just east of Coral Springs.

I too would like to see a picture of the AirFlow for the '02 before committing. It will be between PB & ZG for me. But at this time I'm willing to give the PB a try if it looks good.:crash Cheers

I got the deal worked out for the Powerbronze wind screens... My guy says we can get 'em for $57.50 plus shipping (he says shipping is a couple bucks). There will obviously be no sales tax for people out of Illinois. Let me know if there is a better deal available. If there is, I will give him hell for it... Call Hammertime at 815-544-5800 and ask for Jeremy. Just tell him that you are calling about the Powerbronze group buy....He knows me as Joe or Joaz

Coupla Things: 1. I met someone at Vanson's this weekend. He said PB had this CRAZY problem of focusing the sunlight onto the dash and melting your guage :eek: Like a magnifying glass burning ants. Anyone ever hear of this? Could be :bs , but he said he saw pictures posted on a forum! (RR forum, I think) At any rate, I seriously doubt this would be an issue with a colored/smoked screen :cool: 2. Jeremy said to just email him - most convenient jeremyhts@yahoo.com 3. Tinted screens are 5 bucks more. He's guessing shipping to be around 5 bucks. 4. New screens should be ready to go in 5 days. Maybe a re-call??? 5. Thanks a million joaz22! The final price (~$68) isn't gonna help me retire any earlier, but we are all appreciative of anyone's efforts. And a coupla bucks is a coupla bucks! :rock I'm gonna go with this if nothing better shows in 5 days cuz I don't feel like waiting around to save another 5-10 bucks. I'm getting antsy for my new screen :yesnod

PB had problem with a Honda screen melting gauges. The problem seems to have remedied by PB, after a little hasstle. I saw a thread on the web about it, can't say it's true.

I bought one of the powerbronze windscreens about a month ago. It cost around 80 dollars. The fit was really shitty and I had to redrill some of the holes so it could fit my '00 R1. I liked it originally because it had a good tint to it and it provided a nice arch for better wind protection without looking ugly like some of the others I've seen. Also the shape wasn't perfectly aligned. I dont know if I received one of the bad ones that come out here and there.I did'nt want to return it and wait another week. It is still one of the best shapes out there still, and if it fits right you'll like it. Now I'm thinking of just buying another one like stock but tinted. Cant send a pic, no means for snapping one. Best site ever!!! See ya....

ExtremeR1der, You stated above that a tinted/coloured PB airflow was gonna run about $68.00 through a Forum Group Buy. upon checking kneedraggers.com's site the PB airflow in tint/colour runs $69.00. A savings of $1.00 is not exactly the deal of the century. I'm not trying to slag you, but whom ever is giving the Forum a "deal" is not realy giving a group discount. Just thought you might care to know, for the good of the Forum.:confused: Cheers

Hey dulci and everyone else looking, yeah, I love kneedraggers. I get almost ALL my sh1t from them - thousands in the last 12 months! joaz22 set this deal up. You're right, it's not the deal of the century, but that 68 bucks includes shipping :rock So you save about ten bucks. 10 bucks is 10 bucks and that's pretty good for a 70 dollar item. It's cool. :thumbup

Anybody have any pics. Picture on an 02' would be nice but I'm sure that's not around. I would like to see what their colored shield look like. Would the blue look good on my 02?...... need pics.

I ordered mine 5 minutes ago. Jeremy was super cool. He said it would ship out Tuesday. Where are they located? I am so psyched to get it. ~A Thanks to whomever set up the group buy. I owe you a beer. If you are ever in Vegas fire me an e-mail before you arrive.

Just ordered my smoke airflow from Hammertime and dealt with a guy name TY. Very friendly guy. Thanks Joaz22 this was a sweet deal total was $62.50 shiipping included. :rock

Tempest
04-26-2002, 02:24 PM
I was wondering the same thing. After I ordered I swore they said 62.50. I thought someone had said 68. Great deal!!!!!!

04-26-2002, 02:30 PM
Hey, you guys got the deal. I was charged $62.95!! :cryin LOL. Anyways that still better than Kneedraggers $69.00 + Shipping. I would of went through Kneedraggers if HTS wasn't here. Looks like I am like the only '00 R1 that bought one on this groupbuy. Thanks for the hookup Joaz!! :thumbup

extremeR1der
04-26-2002, 02:32 PM
yeah, that was me that said $68. that's if you want a colored screen (5 bucks more for a colored screen). so technically $67.50.

Got my Smoke Airflow today. I am very happy with the quality and it looks like an awesome screen. Will mount tonight when I get home and report back! I ordered a new digital camera a few days ago. Will post pictures when it comes in. :rock :jump :D

Got about 80 miles in yesterday and I give a big :thumbup to the Airflow. It was fairly windy and the wind protection for us tall riders is significantly better.
