Did you make that?
yes and no
looks like the end of a skateboard
Honestly, I think it looks okay from a front view, but kinda funny and out of place from the side. I wouldn't wanna put anything on my bike that was just so so in my book. If youre iffy on whether or not you like it, I'd just take it off dude.
It looks like it just has a pee pee instead of a schlong.

I was thinking the same thing. I can't decide which way I'm leaning. Doesn't really matter what we think though, it's your bike so whatever you like and makes you happy.
as long as you don't look passed the FE, it looks fine, like a vintage cafe racer
- then you look passed teh front end, it looks funny
ride watcha like, looks are for suuuuuper models
If you have the ability to put a little curve into it it would look a lot better from the side, but then again its not what everyone else thinks its what you think :laugh: :laugh:
Yes. Take it off now!
I would only leave it on if it benefits you with wind coverage. It obviously doesn't though.

Looks like my third grade teacher :icon_mrgreen:
yeah, I made it. Its just a piece of stainless. I put it on yesterday, and just sat there staring at it. I can't decide if i like it or not. :dunno_white:
I think it needs a compound radius on it, curving back and down.

if you make one from plexi-glass, you can heat it in the oven for 15-20 minutes @ 300F, and then drop it in a trash can/turkey fryer. it will set with the curve, i've done it twice now. nice curves. wouldn't recommend it for anything bigger than a flyscreen though. ;)
this is a sv650 screen:

:laugh:yes, destroy it now. :2guns:
Yep! (that's my honest answer). But it's your choice.
I do admire your bravery, taking a pic and asking the question. And well done for making it yourself (much better than what I could do).
off topic, I see your jeep in the background, whats that a TJ on 35's flatfendered? I have a black 1988 Yj with 2.5" lift, some 31's and a big winch. Anyway nice combo of jeep +GS!
I build jeep cages and bumpers in my spare time
my baby: 06 unlimited rubi on 35s
old pic, it has a cj7 style rear cage now:

as for the windscreen, I took it off. Gonna try spray-bombing it blue, and see if it looks any better.
or perhaps put it on an english wheel, and put a curve on it, if you were closer id offer to do that for ya, , BUT does it reflect wind, or bugs or whatnot?, me it looks a bit odd, BUT not bad like ghey or anything
Whaddya mean it doesnt look ghey, might as well spray paint a rainbow on it! :laugh:

I like it alot better now.
Little black jeep, I made a humorous remark, hence the smiley at the end.
Funny I dont remember asking you if you liked my F model or not? Get thicker skin or dont ask the obvious dumb question.
I know. And I made a humorous reponse back. hence the 3 smily's I used. smartass? yup, guilty as charged. :icon_mrgreen:
Oh yeah, painting it a blue that doesnt match the bike makes it look much better! Now its not ghey, just retarded! BOOyah! :cheers:
solution is simple,
replace the st.steel for transparent plex, then spray the down half in the color of your bike,
take a look at mine in the pictures area members bikes,...youl like it.

nice!
actually, that pic is kinda weird. When you don't look at a reflection, its the same color, just not clearcoated(that happens tomorrow)
Im with little black jeep , F Models... .is a wannnabe Gixxer.. Just 1/4 of the power..
I dont think those plastics give it much more top end...
ROFLIDS ( rollinf on floor in drunken stupor), no but the stickers do. if a person has the gsXr stickers on it, that takes care of teh HP discrepancy, if it has the BUSA stickers, it mroe than makes up for it :laugh: :laugh:

Jay-wolf really cmon man...gixxer wanna be? Kat FE, Hagon shock, S.S. exhaust, sounds wanna be to me?! :cheers:
Lilblack jeep cool to see you can take and shovel it, maybe a little bigger and throw it on a english wheel to give some curve. And drop what looks to be a chrome edge. :thumb:
gotta find somebody around here that has a wheel. The B.S. trim is clear. Its there because I don't want to inadvertently use this thing as a guillotine! I'm open to ideas, but I don't want the metal edge exposed.
better but still awful. Spring for the 50 bucks and put in a buell blast flyscreen.
