These guys have them, I picked up my FZ6R yesterday, so I don't know how well they work yet.

A few weeks back I order the Puig windscreen from SoloMoto in black. When we received the order the windscreen is clearly marked Yamaha FZ6R 2009 and it looks great by the way. We take it out of the plastic and immediately you can see that it is not cut for our bike. We still try to line it up and the screw holes are not aligned with the factory's setting. Disappointed because it would look really great if it fit.
Yamaha is the only one...right nowI had the same problem with the one I ordered. I had to send it back as well, and as you said elderproctor, it would have looked cool if it fit. I guess the Yamaha item is the only one guar-teed to fit our bikes? Or am I missing other screens that are available?PHP:A few weeks back I order the Puig windscreen from SoloMoto in black.

They probably sold you the one I returned last year. I sent a note telling them it wouldn't fit the US model FZ6R. So your out the $7 to return it, as was I.I bought a racing windscreen from Motorcycle Superstore and just rec'd it. NOT the correct fit. Looks like it is almost right shape, etc but the screw holes are off and there is no way it fits flat on the cowl. Returned it but M S doesn't know what the problem is.
You shouldnt have to pay return shipping on a product that they sent which is not for your bike... That sucks. I would just dispute credit card charge and if they want the screen back, send me a return label.They probably sold you the one I returned last year.

They sent a prepaid shipping label because it is their error.You shouldnt have to pay return shipping on a product that they sent which is not for your bike... That sucks. I would just dispute credit card charge and if they want the screen back, send me a return label.
Thanks. I was actually just thinking that might be were it goes. Haven't been able to ride yet as its still nasty gravely roads right now but I'm sure it will be much better.To answer your question about that tube. It goes on top of the screen because it has a sharper edge they give it to you as an option to put on to smooth it out. I did not put it on because I think it is unnecessary. The only time that sharper edge could be a problem is in an accident and your head getting a cut on it. Again that's why we wear helmets. It does not go anywhere else and the screen doesn't touch anywhere to scratch the paint. Enjoy the screen it completely changes the wind going over the rider for the better. Riders in moto gp or isle of man use the same style or racing screen
After returning the Puig that didn't fit to Motorcycle Superstore, I ordered one from SoloMOto and cautioned them about the wrong style that doesn't fit. They said they would confirm the cross reference with the Puig part no.I bought a racing windscreen from Motorcycle Superstore and just rec'd it. NOT the correct fit.

staindlegend- any chance you could post a pic w/ the dark smoke windscreen? Thanks,Thanks. I was actually just thinking that might be were it goes. Haven't been able to ride yet as its still nasty gravely roads right now but I'm sure it will be much better.
I might be able to tomorrow (2-28-11). I find pictures in the garage to have bad lighting and don't look very good. Reflects poorly on the true look of the bike. Lately the weather has been pretty nasty here in Montana. However, today was fairly nice and hopefully tomorrow so I might wheel it out for a couple pics.staindlegend- any chance you could post a pic w/ the dark smoke windscreen? Thanks,
