Yay. I just installed a Zero Gravity double bubble. Cost $166 + $30 shipping (no complaints about the shipping cost, it arrived in 3 working days), from Australian Motorcycle [something - i can't remember - will edit).
Installation on the SV was very simple, 4 hex screws and two phillips, pull the old screen, insert the new.
First and only issue - fit is generally quite good, apart from the factory screen has a small "lip" round the base on the inside edge. The ZG doesn't which leaves a considerable gap, which i reckon is prone to moisture going in.
The profile itself for this model is relatively upright, with a decent size bubble. The "light" smoke is actually fairly dark, but looks the goods i reckon.
On the road, well, on a very windy ride to the Magpie, i noticed Glens (on the busa in front of me) head getting a bit of buffet, but i was happy as larry. Used my hand to try and define the area of the quiet zone and it's a huge improvement over the factory screen.
Combine it with a nice tinted visor and it's a sexy unit that i reckon is worth the investment.
P.S Have yet to try it with a pillion. I get the feeling she may well be slightly worse off. Oooops!
