Hi robroymc,


If you goto http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...0-screen-27532 there is a pic of my screen on in there , Like I said it looks just like the original but taller and theres more of a double bouble look to it.

It looks fine on the bike and deffo gives more wind protection. I did want an MRA screen but no way am I forking out 80quid on a screen.

The product code for the screen is FSK63DT and is listed for the 05model onwards.

£35.00 + £4.99 postage Busters Motorcycle Accessories

Hope this helps?

touring screen
Hello robroymc, Sorry about the delay . It is a mra screen, but it is for a honda XL 1000V Varadero REF 34902 , Screen height is 485mm compared to the kawasaki screen of only 355mm so quite a lot bigger, it also has two holes in the middle, i think for hotter climates and less resistance on the screen. There is a downside, I had to make a bracket for both bikes, very simple though, just got a piece of hollow steel bar from B&Q , bent it to the shape of the screen then welded some thick washers into it . hope this helps. Ash.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
