#14If I see that on a bike I will smash it off and consider the act as doing the owner a favour [/quote]...
You know, its a very good thing you are on a different continent. Because if you would EVER "smash" anything "off" my bike...it will very definitely be the last thing that you ever do on this earth.
I think the "touring screen" looks great...and I keep one on permanently... it really helps cut the wind at any serious speed....and I also like that extra little screen on top of it..haven't tried that yet though...what exactly is that screen?..the main part...it isn't shaped at all like my OEM touring screen.
I think there should be some sort of small quarter fairing for the SD..that would be perfect.

#23hahaha
I fitted the MRA screen today and to me it looks ok, the missus says it looks like the sd now has a riot shield LOL
Thing is I bought a multistrada and tried to make it handle like a SD and that cost me lots and just didn't work. This time I bought the SD and made it better for distance, a bigger 08 tank, a screen and provisionfor luggage. So it looks a bit of a shocker but it can now do all the things I want it too.
For anyone that abuses it think how you would feel when it outwheelies you in full on riot shield mode, it's not about how your bike looks but how you ride it. I can't imagine riding an SD and not being able to wheelie for 1/2 a mile yet plenty of people buy them for the image yet fail to live up to it
so ner ner ner ner I like my riot shield
For those that want the mra screen this place has some http://www.bikehps.com/
apparently no more being made ?

Post 35 by TC's SD,
#35I got it about a year ago so I can't remember exactly, but I think they had them in stock so that it didn't take too long - maybe a week or so. They were helpful and good to deal with. If you like, I can look for my receipt tonight and see if it confirms my memory.

#36[email protected] is the email for David at Streetfighter by Design.
Just got mine a month ago, it only took 3 days, great service.
Just push the fasteners in gently upon installation or the rubber expansion nuts will push through inside the headlight shroud demanding your disassembly of the headlight/speedo unit. (must re-use o.e. hardware)

Post 43 by the-bunker,
#43Im going to sneak off for a few days riding tout seul on my sdr over the august break here in france - inevitably I will have to use one or 2 straight roads during the trip - can anyone tell me whether the touring screen makes any real difference for the boring bits ?
Post 44 by superdukegod,
#44Can't give you an answer re the touring screen - but I did find that a tank bag helped. Was able to keep 95mph for several hours without any problems - it's more the derriere that I noticed - that SDR seat is great for short rides, but 8 hours + in the saddle is 1 sore rs...
Post 45 by Stratkat,
#45I have both screens, and I think the "touring" screen does help a bit...
Not a whole lot, but enough to make it worth while. IMHO

#47thanks for the feedback - I will get a tankbag if it will do both jobs - they look to sit up pretty high.
