Default Windscreen

I bought a windscreen frm Lockhart Phillips USA for a 03 f4i and had problems installing it per the mount bolts would not line up. Has anyone else had this problem?

hmmm I have a Sportech and it fit fine, but when I replaced my front fairing with a cheetah I had to drill the holes a little bigger. Is it a OEM nose fairing? Place the new WS over the old one see how the holes line up

Maybe you got the Friday 5:00 special where the guy drilling the holes was thinking about his first beer at the bar after work. Send it back and tell them you want another one.

I just bought a PUIG off of eBay. I made a mistake, and ordered it before I fully checked it out. The ad says that it fits an 01-04....but I have an 05. Will it fit? Please say yes!

They are all so similar I can't imagine a problem, but with my luck......

The front end on these models is identical. You shouldn't have a problem.

But for future reference, the current design of the F4i started in '04. So any aftermarket part that is rated for '04 should be rated for '05 and '06 as well. There are some differences between the '01-'03 model to the current, although they are mostly the same.

Im about to order a Puig dark smoke OEM from Onlineparts.com along with a whole bunch of other stuff.

I've ordered a jacket off these guys before and found OLP very helpful and well priced. Anyone else had experience with this or any of the other online MC stores? Which seems to be the most popular around here?

I just ordered my Puig from Sum Of All Parts(eBay). I called them and added some Vortex frame sliders to my order, and they seemed very knowledgeable and helpful, and best of all their prices were pretty good. Got my frame sliders for $61, which is as low as I've ever seen them.
