2008 FZ1S on the way
« on: 07 March 2016, 07:00:20 pm »
Hi all,
I live near Salisbury and I am taking delivery of a 2008 FZ1S in a couple of weeks having been a die hard Honda owner for 10 years. Been hunting about for info on screens and givi racks and stumbled across this place!!

From my test ride I've establish that for my height /width the standard screen isn't going to cut the mustard. Any pointers gratefully received.

I'm also after a mono rack for it if anyone knows the cheapest place to pick those up!!

Cheers

Sloces

Hello and welcome. I have a genuine Yamaha touring screen I would be willing to part with. I use one adapted to fit my gen 1 as it is by far, for me the most effective screen I've used without looking like a barn door. I bought it to adapt but never have so in VGC.
If you're interested, it's £50 posted. Will post some photos up if you are.

Thanks Dazze.
Roughly how much taller is it than the standard screen?


Cheers

Don't know as I haven't got a standard screen but it is 19" tall.
