So after looking at several windscreens I finally found one I like. Magical racing makes one for the 2016 gsxs 1000. Will this work with a 2018 gsxs 750? Has anyone tried it. And if anyone has one could you post some pics of it on your bike? Thanks for looking. www.moto-works.jp/bikes/2016-gsxs1000.html

And if anyone has one could you post some pics of it on your bike? Thanks for looking. www.moto-works.jp/bikes/2016-gsxs1000.html I havent tried that one and doubt any designed for the 1000 would work without modifications, but there are several 2018 750 specific ones. The one I am using is from Powerbronze, and I love it. It does require some drilling into the part called the meter cover, but that part only costs about $20 if you ever wanted to go back to stock. Heres an entire thread I posted about the Powerbronze windscreen I have. Theres also the OEM Suzuki made one that is part # 51800-13813. As well as several other options on Ebay. Just search "GSX-S 750 Windscreen" and you should see multiple different options, styles, etc. Hope this helps you!

The part cost for the meter cover looks to be about $100 in Canada

It should have been,but there was one problem.The screen mount uses the bolts on either side of the top of the forks. These take a 6mm allen key , and as you'd expect, they were tight.But that wasn't the problem. The inner headlight fairing was partially in the way, making it difficult to get to. I had to cut down a 6mm allen key, so that the allen key 'short end' was even shorter. Imagine an allen key laid flat on a table. it has one short end and one long, i had to cut the short end in half to get it into the bolts on the forks to tighten.I couldn't torque then up so I tightened as much as I could. I must add that this screen was advertised as fitting a 2017 model,whereas mine is a 2018 one. 'Don't know if that makes a difference.

Was looking around for a screen for my bike for a while, but they're pretty bloody expensive here in Oz. Ended up finding a brand new Givi one on Gumtree for a price I couldn't pass up.    I read the horror stories about the mounts on these breaking but after 3 weeks of everyday riding at highway speeds there's no signs of anything giving way, so fingers crossed it hangs in there.
