I like that screen, which one is it and does it protect you at all ?

Enjoy your retirement - I can't wait for full retirement in 3 years but on the other hand, I don't want to wish my life away!

I will have a look tomorrow for a make, its one I had given to try out. For the size of it, it makes a massive difference especially with mine having US bars on. It takes the strain off your neck when just sat at 80/90 No doubt would be even better with UK bars. I wouldn't want to be without it now. I would replace it immediately if something were to happen to it. I had to reshape and re-drill the fixing points to drop it down so it sat closer to the headlamp.

I too like the screen it doesn't look out of place like most. But I have no use for it as I haven't used the bikes since Crich  :(

Thanks for that I will have to get one, I did have a period style handle bar fairing on my F1 it worked great but looked really out of place, your screen looks tons better.

Took a ride over to the ELK auto jumble in Kent today. The roads were great once I'd left the M25/A21, lots of twisties  :).
I saw this CBX, a real work of art with a home made and polished frame. The exhaust sounded great. The owner took two years to build it and said he preferred to ride a sidecar!
