Posted: Sat Jan 26, 2008 9:34 am Post subject: Runner screen on my gts |
|
|
Just finished adapting a gilera runner screen for my gts.. I thought i'd give it a go to see what it would look like as i noticed that the mirror holes etc are in exactly the same position as on my runner and that it meant all i had to do was cut around the headlamp !!. so i bought a brand new runner screen and started cutting it ( don't do what i did and sat on ebay waiting for a runner screen to come up as when they did they were going for around 25-30 quid..second hand.. i then found out i could buy a brand new one from a gilera agent for £18.....)I bought some new runner mirrors to finish it off.. I'm still in two minds if i like it or not as due to the design of the runner screen i cut the headlamp shape out and it sits back a liitle too far from the front of the headlamp ..SO it was worth a try and i'll see if it grows on me !!.. I haven't got to try it out yet ref the wind aspect as i'm still waiting to get my wheels back !!! heres some pics...what do you think ??

Looks great, a bit more streamlined than the standard screen _________________

std small screen is vvvvvv good but i do think it directs the wind straght at my helmet and makes my balls ache, sorry i mean makes helmet seem noisy, obviously this depends on how tall you are _________________

The wind deflection might be an issue as when sat on the scoot it looks like it's going to be deflected right into my face but i will have to see when i get my wheels back and i can take it for a spin ..i will keep it posted.. |
