    Great mod. Getting the bike tomorrow and will do this soon.
    Can someone confirm whether there's no sound from the visor (like it's vibrating and needs some rubber pieces while fixing it)?

      Additionally, you can also use a FAZER visor, just that its not clear, its tinted. Secondly, it is not wide enough, its just taller.
      There're no uneven noises, but the wind rarely causes it to flutter a little.

      I'm using mine without enforcement, but I barely rode upto 100 kmph few times on the highway, and no issues till now. Although, I won't recommend taking this bike with this Fazer visor to the BIC (racetrack), where we do an easy meter displayed 170 kmph on the back straight, and about 135 elsewhere.

        The visor sure does help a lot at top speeds. Earlier on my Duke 390, 120 km/h used to be a pain on dry days and on windy days even 100 km/h would be tough.
        Now, I've installed MRA windshield on my D390 and now even 160-170 km/h is a cakewalk. I'm fully satisfied with the MRAs. But, there are 2 disadvantages with windscreens:
        1. Mileage decreases by around 2 km/l,
        2. Slight rattling (If it's a clamp design like the MRAs which can be easily fixed with a small rubber piece at the back).

          Excellent DIY job. Fitting perfectly. Can tinting some part help avoid high beam glare from apposite direction?
