Well, my "specially made" light tint screen arrived for my '04 after about a 4 week wait. For some reason the light tint screens are not stocked in the UK but are available from the states if you are prepared to wait.
Once I finally overcame the "interesting" :banghead standard fasteners, the old screen was removed.
Then I had a brainwave and removed the fairing to mount the new screen which probably took about 4 very frustrated hours off the job...only 4 screws and an electrical connector to get it off and so much easier to fit the screen.
First ride impressions:
I can now ride 15-20 mph faster for the same windblast than before...also, the bike is much more planted during high speed direction changes and cornering which makes it far more confidence inspiring. :thumbup
Problem is, now I want to go faster...:thumbdown
Overall, top screen, looks great, serious benefits so worth the wait.
