Screen screw
 

This post might be misuse of this section of forum. If so I'm sorry Mods...

I'm missing a screen fixing screw. I don't know if they are prone to falling out or not because it wasn't there when I bought it. Not really sure what to do about it but I thought I'd stick a post here to see if I got any response.

Having checked - yes indeedy it's one of those I'm missing.

What's a tooling shop? Also looking closely there doesn't appear to be anything to screw into - so am I missing something in my fairing as well? If there is a bit behind then I'm not sure how I'd take that out to take somewhere for reference.

I've never messed around with screens before. When I took it off my last faired bike the circumstances were somewhat different (see Avatar).

Once I've done this it'll probably seem so simple, afterall people change their screens all the time, but right now it's got me.

The bit you really need is what's behind - go look at your other three. Failing that bolt & rubber/plastic washer.
