Default bond it?

I've got this on my bike - but it was done before I bought it.

When you get the stuff from B&Q or whatever tell them what you're doing and they'll recommend the right bonding stuff or glue that won't melt your fairing.

Cheers, Steve.

Didn't see this on a blue SVS outside Infinity in Farnborough did you?

Car tuning shops also have an assortment of mesh as do Halfords. Some of the B&Q stuff isnt aluminium so may rust. To attach I would have the mesh overized and bond (hot glue gun is good for this kind of thing or araldite) on some cable tie attachment points inside the fairing and use cable ties. It will hold the mesh in tight. Or find a nearby Chav and ask him how he does it,

There you go, as your near Fowlers, suz, nip in and see how theyve attached the mesh and let us all know. I want to put some mesh in the tank panels of my GS

Seriously, I'd recommend that. Car tuners love talking about their cars and even the ones who you'd cross the street to avoid will be willing to offer advise. Think along the lines of,

"Wot you lookin at?"
"Your car mate, it's lovely- that grill on the front looks well trick"
"Yeah, nice innit?"
"How'd you do that? I'd like to so something similar on my bike, but dunno how"
"Well you x, y, z or you could, etc. etc."

Finally, when they stop talking, you should have a clear idea of all manner of ways of doing it
