Screen Suggestions - Shape, Size and where to get them

I have a Gustaffson +6 clear screen on mine.  I'm about 6'7".  The fit on the fairing is gappy, but I have learned to overlook that due to performance.  There is no buffeting from the screen and if my facesheild is open to the first notch, and I dip my chin down a bit, very little air goes in.  Recommended for performance, not fit.

OK, first the pics of the ZG screen.  BTW, the original was mounted with some cobbed up screws so I replaced them with nylon nuts and bolts and some neat capped washers that cover the bolt heads.  Found them at Lowes.






These are in the Misc FJ gallery if you just want to go there.  Also, +1 on what oldktmdude said - the screen fit well and no drilling required.

Rich, the bike in my pic is a '40 Indian Sport Scout flat tracker - 3 speed, left-side foot clutch/hand shift, NO BRAKES!  My buddy found it on a shelf 10' off the floor in a pool hall in Massillon, OH.  Worked real hard to get it, had my other buddy tune it, and sold it to a Brit for a 6 grand profit.  The bike has graced the pages of several antique mc mags and books - the cover, in some cases.  I had the extreme pleasure of riding it on deer-infested back roads (thought it was well worth the risk).  Don't want to tie up this thread with any more about the Indian, but would be glad to send you a couple pics of the bike.

Simplicity of character is the natural result of profound thought.

Start a new thread with lots of pics then, please.  I would like to see them too.
