Windshield problems

[Kwikasfuki]

I have to say Autorama have been great so far. They'll be definitely getting my custom for my next bikes (ZZR and new GTR at some point)

The dealer is trying to see if he can get the bracket standalone. I've rung and informed him of the nylon plastic bit that goes with the bracket that we also need to get.

Fingers crossed should be sorted soon.

Makes you wonder if putting bigger screens on is a wise thing to to. Possibly effect your warranty too.

You'd think though wouldn't you that a slightly larger screen, would not cause any major dramas. Its probably just a bit of normal wear and tear. My bikes the same age I think as NB's and there's nowt wrong with my equipment.  ;D

more screen = more force  :-\

[Kwikasfuki]

Its covered by warranty and I expect to have it replaced sometime this week.

Bigger screens do equal more force. The mechanism is the same on all model and on 2010 onwards the bikes are fitted with bigger screens.

I think we'll see more off this issue shortly. Apparently there was another one that was broken from the mounting.

Nb, out of interest, did it give you any warning that a problem was brewing? Or was it a case of working one minute, and then it wasnt?

[Kwikasfuki]

None whatsoever. Working one sec, next my head is being battered by strong penine wind

Be interesting to know if it's only happened to Bikes with aftermarket Screens or not.

On the US site there's plenty of riders with the big Calsci & Cee Baileys screens with high mileage who haven't had any problem. If you have the screen fully extended at high speed then that will put additional force on the bracket.

Just done an impulse buy and purchased the MRA Vario.
