I am thinking about putting a yellow wind screen on my yellow 2004 GS has anyone done this and if so can ya post a pic so I can see what it looks like?

go for it.  Just make sure the yellow screen is close to the same yellow and not amber.  It should look killer.

I think it might look pretty cool to Lockhart phillips has them for the GS 500 I'm guessing that they should be the same yellow. what do you think?

I'm thinking this guy above me should buy some punctuation lessons first.  :nana:

Yea, I noticed that after I posted. Sorry.

I'm just farking with you. I know you can spray them to look lke this:




I'm gonna do it to my black and blue 2005, but yellow may be a little harder. You ever think about black? I think it'll look sweet; too much yellow can be a bad thing  

Dave  

Black might look sweet, I've seen the pic of yours before and think it looks great.

Thanks, but that's not mine, it's tdan553527's. I got the idea from him, and I am doing it this week.  It looks really nice, and I would suggest trying it for yourself. The product you need is:

KRYLON Fusion for Plastic, black, #2321

Should be able to find it at any AutoZone. Good luck!

Dave  

Thanks, I think I'll try it and if it don't look good I'll get the yeller one. Might save a few bucks to.

Here's the info I got from tdan553527:

QuoteThanks, I took it off, 3 screws on the front and remove the mirrors. Then I taped off the front side and the top lip. Took about 3 coats to get good coverage. No sanding required, just clean it good before painting. Easy mod and looks good.

Good luck!

Dave  

I actually painted the screen before the bike was painted. The black screen looked great on my yellow f. I'll try to track down that picture.

Edit-here it is

There he is. How's it, tdan553527? So yeah, I imagined it would look just like that. Do the black; yellow may be a little...how do you say...tacky? Black accents the seat, grips, frame, mirrors...AKA everything that's not the body or fairings. +1 for black

Going good, been busy at work. Yea, black accents everything better IMO. I've seen some of the yellow ones and they do look good though. I think it will just come down to your preference.

Boo.

Photoshop to the rescue!  Here's what it might look like a yellow windscreen:

Just as I thought, it looks like butt.

Keep in mind that it is a 5-minute photoshop job, so that might hekp explain it.  

But I do like the black better, too.

Your work is good, it's the amount of yellow that made me run to the shitter to lose my lunch. How much fukking yellow can one man take? Jeez, why not get a yellow helmet and jacket and just look super lame?

I had a yellow Vette and the lady I sold it to put in black and yellow seat covers and steering wheel cover. Not...cool..., as the cavemen in the Geiko commercial would say. I had the inside black, and it was tight like a tiger.

End of rant.

Dave  

A mirrored yellow like my helmet's shield would probably look not-like-ass.
