Hello Guys,
New to here as just bought 60 plate GTR1400, I am sadly 6' and need a slightly higher screen than the stock one any on on here actually fitted one and can recommend one?

Hi and welcome.
There is no one size fits all solution unfortunately. I've tried pretty much all the screens and settled on the Calsci. At 6ft I find the calsci large suits me fine. I have a XL for sale here:

At 6'3" i have fitted the Laminar Lip, works for me on my 11 Black (proper colour) one.

I'm 6' with about 32" legs so I've got a Large Calsci :smiley: Unless you have short legs / long body that's probably the size for you it's about 3" taller http://www.calsci.com/motorcycleinfo/Fairing.html#Height (http://www.calsci.com/motorcycleinfo/Fairing.html#Height)
Incidentally I've not heard of anyone with a wide screen...

Well Hello Snob and :185: !
So glad to hear you have chosen the right bike !
Hope you get your screen sorted and keep in touch with the forum ... where about's are you ?
:185: I'll have a spare screen as of tomorrow.
MRA works wonderfully well for me, 5'-11'' and a bit xx
I'm selling a Calsci large screen if you're interested. Great screen, this one is off my brothers now departed GTR. PM me if you're interested
Welcome to the forum where there's loads of helpful advice and some bloody good company too
Dont be "sad" about being 6' there are others on here who are giants among mere mortals :rolleyes:
And yes, it would be good to know where you are located

Ipswich, Sunny Suffolk :mfr_lol:
Nice ! Many many many many years ago I was seeing a young lady ( that's how many years ago it was .. "young" ! " ) from Bury St Edmunds .. what a nice place that was, and would imagine it still is :laugh:
:agree:
Hi guys, and any Gals,
I am from Ipswich slightly more mature (50) magnesium 60 plate GTR.
If any one from close by with one let me know and when the weather gets warmer lets meet up for a shandy somewhere.
BTW I am now only a fair weather rider :mfr_lol: :biker3:

P.S. the SNOB bit comes from my car reg plate S555NOB.
Cheers
Snobby .. there are a few of now that can count ourselves as 'The Southern Contingent" or "Southern Softies", as them up Norffff like to call us,... so I see no reason why we can't get together when everything warms up .... have you seen the thread for the end of June Cotswolds meet ? There are some of us from Sussex Kent Hants and of course there's Essex Boy so we can all do a get together in The Spring .... perhaps start a thread shortly and gauge the response ..... :cool:
Warms up....warms up :huh:.... hells bells its bloody boiling up here, why only yesterday the outside thermometer was pushing 6c...
So I set off for a ride out

:mfr_lol: this place is Bootle Beach, which is just down the road from a nice little cafe (the Byre) in the village, and so I thought I'd take in some sea air while I was there....I didn't smell any cordite :mfr_lol:
Out of interest I passed a Silver 08 GTR parked up outside someones house a few hundred yards up the road
I seem to recall someone else posting a picture of his GTR on a beach....eh Steve :clap: :mfr_lol:
