Product Information

Full details

The Airblade Clear Double Bubble Screen is designed for Yamaha YZF-R6 owners between the 2008 and 2016 model years who want to improve their bike's aerodynamics and rider comfort. Developed alongside professional British Superbike teams, this screen effectively reduces drag for a smoother riding experience; however, its specialized double bubble shape may alter the bike's stock profile, which some purists may find visually distinct from the original factory equipment.

FAQs

Does this screen fit the 2017 R6 model?

No, this screen is specifically engineered for the 2008-2016 Yamaha YZF-R6 body style and will not fit the 2017 or newer models.

Is the clear finish prone to yellowing?

The material is UV-stabilized to maintain clarity, but regular cleaning and storage away from direct intense sunlight will extend its lifespan.

Do I need special hardware to install this?

No, it is designed to use your motorcycle's existing hardware, though it is recommended to replace old rubber grommets if they have degraded.

How much wind resistance does this actually reduce?

While individual results depend on rider height, the double bubble design is mathematically proven to decrease drag and wind buffeting compared to the stock screen.

Is this screen street-legal?

Yes, it is designed as a direct replacement part and complies with standard safety requirements regarding material integrity.

Troubleshooting

Vibration or rattling at speed

Check that all mounting bolts are tightened to the correct specification and ensure the rubber grommets are seated correctly.

Screen appears clouded

Avoid using ammonia-based cleaners; use a dedicated motorcycle plastic polish to restore the original clarity.

Difficulty aligning bolt holes

Ensure the screen is centered before tightening any screws. Do not force the screw if the hole is misaligned; loosen surrounding screws to shift the screen slightly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly reduces rider wind fatigue at high speeds
  • Developed with professional racing team insights
  • High-impact resistance prevents cracking from road debris
  • Maintains optical clarity for better visibility
  • Flexible material prevents sharp fragments during impact

Cons

  • Requires specific tools for installation on the R6 fairing
  • May look different than the OEM flat-style screen
  • Clear finish may require frequent cleaning to remain pristine

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This screen is designed exclusively for the Yamaha YZF-R6 2008-2016 model range and utilizes the existing factory mounting points for a direct fitment.

Installation Tips:

  1. Use a high-quality screwdriver to carefully remove the plastic fasteners and bolts securing the original screen.
  2. Ensure the rubber well-nuts are not brittle; replace if necessary to prevent vibrations.
  3. Do not overtighten the screws during installation, as excessive pressure can cause stress fractures around the mounting holes.

Care Instructions:

To maintain optical clarity, clean the screen using only a soft microfiber cloth and a mild plastic cleaner or soapy water. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents, glass cleaners containing ammonia, or paper towels, as these can scratch or cloud the surface.
