Riderscan and Givi Airflow
« on: January 14, 2014, 06:53:23 »
Hi,
does anybody have Riderscan mounted on Givi Airflow? If yes, where? Can you post the picture please?
The problem is that I'm not sure if it will fit on lower screen because of the brackets on it and don't want to spend money before making sure.
Thanks

Great, thanks, that was what I was looking for. Though my Airflow is for Glee, it shouldn't be much of a difference.

Just received and installed my Riderscan. It was a nightmare as it simply didn't have the space to put it on. The distance between its brackets is exactly the same as the distance between screen brackets. No space bellow or above brackets (in youtube video above, it's Givi Airflow for Wee and for Glee lower screen is much smaller). And the top screen has the sliders with the same distance as brackets on the Riderscan. So, at the end, unscrewed the brackets from the lower screen, put the Riderscan brackets and then screwed the screen brackets back on over Riderscan's brackets. Looks good. I'll post back after few days of commuting and try to be honest if it was worth the money I paid for it.

I think I would find that a bit distracting ?

Blokes who use it for a while say it's distracting for a few days then you get used to it and then you just can“t imagine riding in the city without it. Me personally, I don't know. Will have to wait and see.

It'll be interesting to see how you get on with it. I guess with a little bit of time you will get used to it and the idea of more peripheral vision around the city is a great idea.

Took it out today for a sunny day ride. It's not distracting at all, it's opposite, I have to remember it's there to look at it... But anyway, when I remember to use it, it's of great help.
