and the likes, have these screen cut outs, is this to reduce the vacuum effect at speed?
That's right Kev. it reduces it quite a bit which stops you having to push back on the bars all the time, making a more relaxed ride.
Strangely though, it doesn't seem to make you any wetter in the rain.
Cheers, gonna get me dremmel out then :smiley:
Haha good luck Kev. What are you chopping, the original screen?

haha thats funny ,
yes this question has popped up a few times, ive got the cut outs and a little bit of driving rain does get in but its absolutely ok
I dunno what my screen is, ive got a top deflector on it so it cant be original, i did buy my bike used. Have a look at my pictures and let me know.
Ive been up & down the A69 to/from Corbridge this past week and noticed theres a very fine line between, low wind noise, and heavy pressure on the wrists so it has to be done. Its not the first time ive cut a screen before, so ill manage it no bother.
All done, here you go http://www.gtr1400.co.uk/forums/index.php/topic,2755.msg41030.html#msg41030
