Thanks for this - do you just stick them on have you used mechanical fastening as referred on the website?

The 'Lip' comes supplied with 6 round heavy duty velcro type pads which I think are 3m and they do attach very securely. Make sure that your screen is very clean and wiped with alcohol pads to ensure good contact

Having just travelled to France and enjoyed the benefits of the Laminar Lip I can recommend it..On my return yesterday there were very strong cross winds on the A1 & A66 in particular and whilst the screen was taking a buffeting it remained solid.

If you buy the Laminar Lip make sure you get the right one.. Theres 2 types for the GTR.. Standard screen size & Tall screen size..

I have bolted mine on after my first one flew off on the M26 while I was doing 120  :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol:

The later you brake the longer you go fast.

Do they come ready to bolt on our did you have to drill the lip Deb?

I think I paid £80, it came from Latvia , had one on my Blackbird, my CBF and now on the GTR. It comes with a template to drill the holes through your screen however I bought the clamps that fit over the screen and in my opinion are the best option.

I wouldn't be without it as the GTR does suffer from the wind noise right across the ears if your proper bloke size.

Thanks for that - £110 off the internet with the clamps. Looks really simple and provides some flexibility that some of the larger screens imply dont.

trousersnake, how does that affect the screen when it's in a fully raised position ?

I only ask as I noticed that the Laminar Lip fitted to my GTR does seem to place a bit more strain on the screen and it's mountings when it's fully raised in windy conditions.

Olde, it does flap a tiny bit, when up. But to be honest I whack it right up, look through it and forget about it.

It give great protection.

The hinges that came with my one are quite long so it comes with loads of height if needed. They do smaller hinges which I'm going to try, I have bought replacements before when a pidgeon hit me for about £20.
