Hiya Hawkwind nice bike noticed you have a flip up screen where did you get it does it help with the wind over your head I mean not the other sort of wind.

Hiya Harry . Screen was on the bike when I bought it , but it's now broken after an encounter with a wood pigeon ! I think it may be a Powerbronze screen , if a nice one doesn't come up on e-bay soon I'll be replacing with a Powerbronze .

Yes it does help with wind blast , though I've never had a standard screen , it's nice and sheltered behind there at high speed and is great at deflecting the occasional pigeon!

An early mornin' run like yours might be just the right medication for my current condition ..............we never learn do we ? !!!

Yeah I suppose you could have a peaceful ride Sir Trout......never tried it myself

Seriously at that time in the morning it is very peaceful ! Most of the pics are on the same route as the vid I posted , but on that camera all you see is the road , so I thought I'd take the still camera and take a few shots of what's next to the road
