bike quip screen arrived
« on: January 24, 2015, 12:07:10 PM »
"Bike Quip screen 21 inch clear"arrived 5 days after ordering from the UK!

Great improvement on stock, much improved air flow and quieter due to top lip.

Very minimal optical distortion, well made, perfect fit of holes line up.

not cheap ($270 aud incl shipping)  but highly recommended!  :thumbs

Glad to hear you are happy, as I've been bleating on about how much better it is to anyone who will listen.   :thumbsup

It was also thanks to Pete that I went halvies with Shiney in the postage for 2 screens. Happy as Larry with mine as well.   :thumb


Shiney and I found ourselves with spare OEM screens and decided to have them cut down ZevK, to almost resemble the naked bike feel in Qld Summers. It is an easy screen swap over in minutes. Love that too.     ++


Cheers, Diesel

You nailed it mate, the cut down summer screen is also a great addition and gets a fair bit of use :thumbs

Thanks for sorting it for me Diesel ++

Nope.


A special tool called.... "The Perspex Guy"       :-++


Took it to a local perspex shop and the guy cut them down for a red back each. I drew a rough line on the OEM that I wanted him to cut to.


There is a thread on here somewhere about it.
