ZackP3 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Hello, I am sorry if there is already a thread for this, but I have a 2018 MT07 and have recently realized Yamaha decided to change the bolt patterns used for windscreens. I have been unsuccessful in finding windscreens for the 2018 model and wanted to know if anyone here has had some luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTheaded Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 It is my understanding that they replaced the headlight with the ones on the old fz09 headlight. I've ordered one for that model and I'll let you know once I get my hands on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRR Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Are you looking for style or function? I'm pretty sure there are already few OEM screens for the 18 Ermax has 2 https://www.ermax.com/Yamaha/MT-07(FZ-7)/sport_nose_screen_.html?egap=article&ida=7181 https://www.ermax.com/Yamaha/MT-07(FZ-7)/nose_screen_.html?egap=article&ida=7183 Puig has a few and even has a wind resistance break down for each https://puig.tv/en/bybike/yamaha_mt-07_2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also am in the same boat and since there is nothing available in Canada yet, I was planning to try some MRA universal. In any case let us know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beemer Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 I have an Ermax for my bike and I like it. I recently took it off just so it would look more like a street fighter, I think the bike looks best that way but the other day I was on the highway, heading into the wind and the wind kept pushing up on the bottom of the helmets chin and hard on my chest. I didn't like my head being jerked up like that. Granted, I was doing around 90 mph. My grip was noticeably tighter than w/windscreen and I can't take too much of that. I may put the windscreen back on. I have the blue satin 39 cm for an '15 FZ-07. Here's a link for them, I highly recommend them if you're having trouble with wind. They do work! https://www.ermax.com/Yamaha/MT-07(FZ-7)/nose_screen_.html?egap=article&ida=7183 Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRR Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I'll be getting the flyscreen for purely aesthetic reasons. Not expecting any wind protection but will update once I've taken it for a decent ride. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueMule Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 OK, this is pissing me off. i cant find anyone that is stocking windscreens for the 20118 MT. puig and ermax dont sell here except through distributors that are not showing the products for sale here in the US. MamaYamaha has their products, for ungodly prices and they dont look as nice as the Euro aftermarket stuff. even most of the ebay stuff i'm finding isnt marked for the 2018.

Beemer Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Have you tried motomachines? That's where I bought mine but I don't know if they carry them for 18's. Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( well, MAYBE on a special order.) there are a handful of parts i'm looking for that most of the aftermarket doesn't seem to have caught up with yet. European makers/shops have stuff, but theres the whole price, shipping and language thing that makes me a bit gunshy about ordering. I'm usually pretty good at finding stuff on the Net, but this ones frustrating. i think a bit of it is that many parts crossover, but the descriptions aren't updated. (that reflected in some of the ebay/amazon listings) also, i'm trying to avoid all the cheap ass chinese junk floating around.

Just kidding but I thought that everything was made in China any more. GL! Maybe with the new tariffs American business will boom a bit and help us out in the future.

Haeussler Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 I acquired the Puig sport windscreen as a mistake cause i thought i was buying the touring one but i wasnt. I would say it protects you from the wind pretty good till you hit 90mph, after that you gotta tuck-in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djfz07 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Just installed the Yamaha Sport Screen. Gotta say, I don't feel much of a difference. I wasn't expecting much but I thought at highway speeds I'd notice something. If anything, I guess my grip is a little less on the bars on the highway but that honestly could just be my imagination. It's easier to clean up bugs on the screen than to pick them out of the handlebar/gauge areas though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beemer Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 That Yamaha Sport Screen doesn't appear to come up high enough to block wind from hitting the chest. My windscreen comes up a little higher and it does block wind on the chest and bottom of my helmet but I lean forward a little and head down slightly because of handlebars.

BlueMule Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) Puig, touring, dark smoked. their airflow analysis is spot on up to about 65 MPH.

DSuspence Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 I know this is a bit late, but I was finally able to find a US dealer carrying the Ermax lineup for the 2018's: https://motostarz.com/collections/mt-07-2018/brands_ermax I've got a dark black sport screen on it's way. Sure, it probably won't do much in terms of wind blockage, but I think they look good and clean up the front of the bike a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoboetiquette Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Here is a Givi for the 2018 MT-07 http://www.accessoryinternational.com/product/givi-a2140-specific-windshield.html I think I like the looks of the Ermax more however. I just wish you could get the MRA Racing screen locally. Have found it shipped from the UK but shipping is as much as the screen itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yamaoldster Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Here's my solution to 2018 Yamaha screen. Keeps pretty much most blast off the chest and some on helmet, I'm 5'8". Found on eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bracket I received is a off on one bolt on each side by about a centimeter. Idk if it's because it maybe a Chinese knockoff or what so I can't actually confirm, but mine doesn't fit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
