ELS Carbon/Kevlar radiator screen is finally here.


It's got a cool asymmetrical pattern which I like. Lightweight and indestructible, it's also way easier to wipe clean than the metal ones.

Here's the metal one I took off. Let's compare weights.

The ELS screen is 40% lighter than the metal one. Let's mount it up with a few zip ties. You can use bolts but there's no need.

I just ordered it. It was easy to go through his site to or it, but when payment time came I was forced to use PayPal. I hate that company. Trying to get The payment to go through was frustrating! paypal didn’t want to take my payment. I tried several times. I had to switch browsers a couple times until I used one it liked. If this is the only way to pay for an item from him I won’t be shopping there again. I just hope this thing is worth it.

Mine looks fantastic as well. A lot better than the silver aluminum accessory one I had on there.

I ordered the Kawasaki one and a month later they still have no idea when it will ship, so I canceled the order today. This one is $50 more than I was paying for the Kawasaki one. I hope that it’s worth it.

It's really unique compared to all the others on the market. You won't be disappointed.

Is the ELS painted on or a sticker? Do you think that it would be easy to remove?

This $29 Amazon rear seat cowl is way lighter (almost 13 oz less) than the Kawasaki one.


It doesn't come with the $2 11057-2879 bracket needed at the rear though.

I already had the Kawi one installed, so the Amazon cover just popped in place. This will let me preserve the expensive Kawasaki one for down the road while enjoying a bit of weight savings as the bike continues its diet.

Kawasaki on the left, Amazon on the right.

Amazon one doesn't have the "Ninja" script, the rubber pad is molded into the cover and is hard plastic, and there is no metal bracket mount underneath.

How's the color match on it? I was surprised how heavy the OEM seat cowl was.

How do you like the MRA screen and does it give you any more wind protection or weird buffeting?
Click to expand...
It gives more protection, but definitely has some undesirable buffeting. The stock screen let clean air hit my midsection, the MRA brings the boundary layer of dirty air up higher and makes things slightly less comfortable when cruising on the freeway.
