Hi guys, looking to get a cheap fly screen for my er5. I am ebaying as they're all cheap and nasty, which is just what I'm looking for.

Now the ER5 is a 7 inch headlight, and I'm watching a flyscreen for a monster and bandit etc. What size are they're headlights? If they're 7 inches then I will bid cos it is likely to fit...

I would hazzard a guess that they are a 7" unit. AFAIK, round headlights come in 7, 5 1/4, and 4 1/2 then those silly little ones you buy from busters.

Is that 9 real inches, or 9 man inches? :)

9 real inches, Yamaha put the large headlamp on the 920r & Seca in the early 80's I think Suzuki also put one on the GS1100

awesome light, nothing like a large reflector, I much prefer riding my yamaha at night over my SV
