hi,
fitted my laminar lip at the end of last week and took the bike out for a run last night.
Must say I am quite impressed although wish id placed I slightly higher.
Has anyone bolted their LL to the screen? if so, can you post a pic of the fixings you have used?
As much as the fixings seems secure, I can't help feeling they will detach at speed
thanks
I fitted mine as high as I could using the supplied Velcro type stuff, I did e a couple of clamps and gently squeeze them together, so far in four years at speeds along the German roads around 130mph it's been rock solid.
I do have a spare screen with a laminar lip bolted to is which I have been keeping as a spare but as yet no need for it, the guy whom I purchased it from simply put some rubber disks between the surfaces and nylock nuts.
If it's on right it won't move, trust me 😀

I lost my first one doing 120 on the way home from France. The second one I used flanged bolts with rivet nuts so it looks better.

Got the mra x creen with all stuff included.
Wish i did it long before... At last no windbuffering and bugs :banana: :punk:
That was the only issue bout this bike ... So its perfect now
I too have the Laminar Lip fitted, and it is excellent ..I have seen Debs installation and have yet to bolt mine to the screen...I'll get round to it soon :wink:
Thanks folks,
I'll maybe put my trust in the supplied Velcro type fixings and see what happens
:scooter:
Mine is on order and I like the look of the fixings Debs has used. Can't wait to get it fitted as I am sure it will solve the buffeting problem I am experiencing without it.
I've had my laminar lip on for nearly 1000 miles now, and I have to say, when I first got it I though mehh its no better, but now that I am used to it, I am very happy with it.
The wind noise is still there but the buffeting has gone. You don't even have to put the screen fully up to benefit, I get up to speed on the motorway then raise the screen and stop it when the buffeting stops at maybe 3/4 of the way up.
It also seems pretty solid with the standard fixings.
i like and expect some wind noise when riding my bike, its all part of the pleasure :yes:
The LL reduces the buffeting experience
My LL now fitted and is a huge improvement. Like OC I can get the wind flow when I want it, but minus the buffeting :clap:
My conversion to the lip was induced by OC ( Roger) when we met in Bedale, :yes: he also allowed me to sit on his newly acquired top sellerie seat....yes converted again :mfr_lol:... my NEW top dollar, top sellerie seat should arrive tommorow, soooo looking forward to fitting it prior to my last two long tours of the year. A real improvement on the standard seat :banana: :banana:
I hope you're happy otherwise it'll all be my fault :mfr_lol:

Roger. I will let you know.. :mfr_lol:
oh, I know you will, which is why I'm worried :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol:
:mfr_lol: :mfr_lol:
I fitted a LL on my stock screen as bigalan said mounted it as high as poss.
I have noticed when the screen is down it deflects more against my chest not a problem though.
And when I raise a little it clears the top of the helmet all good :clap:
