I made this a few days ago and was wondering if anyone knows of a company that makes something similar...I got the basic idea from a triumph speed triple aftermarket screen, but obviously it wouldn't work with the sv650 since it has a dual headlight configuration
![]() Even something like what a nighthawk 700s uses, but with plastic that will work with a round headlight...though I would prefer a sportier and more modern look if possible. basically I'm looking for a bit of wind protection at speeds above 50mph, but not a flyscreen because I don't want my bike to look like a harley. |

Don't know about over there, but If I was going to do something like that I'd make up a plug (the shape in wood or something) and get my brother to put it threw a vaccum former, could have a nice "one off", do you know anyone at a tech collage they normally have this kind of stuff.
Cheers Mark.

Puig makes one similar to your drawing for K3-K7Ns, called a touring screen, that works with the stock colored bits, and works pretty well at wind deflection. I just put mine on before leaving for a three month job 1K miles away from home and do not have a good pic (nice enough to give a test run, but too cloudy for a good pic). I could post a dingy garage pic, but not a real good one. I know others on the site have this screen, maybe someone could post

I might try the vaccuum former idea. Don't know many people in college, but maybe I'll find somebody with access to it. I might be able to DIY something too...but I definitely need something better than no screen... |

![]() Anyone tried this screen...not exactly what I want...but if it blocks enough wind and I can fasten it for quick release I might try it out... http://www.mra-shop.de/shop/index.ph...99880548e43fbc |
