Not sure if this is in the right place or not.

I'm after a small screen for my Bandit, however the only screens I've seen so far need the mini fairing infront of the headlight to be removed, however I like this bit and want to keep it there!

Anyone know where I can get such a screen?

Try www.banditmania.co.uk I think they deal with the 650 Bandits as well, they are usually good quality and cheaper than anywhere else as well. Thumbs Up

I've been having a think about this, how easy would it be to modify a standard screen?

eg cut the bottom section off (Where the brackets are) tidy it up, mark and drill 2 new holes and attach to the bike using the original screws and a couple of rubber washers. - Does it sound doable?

I suppose if it doesn't damage the structure of the bike then why not?

Do note though that it could be detrimental to the resale price of your bike. However I do like the little bit of fairing on the GSF650 and wouldn't want to get rid of it. Why not ring up Bandit Mania and give them a suggestion, they might well look into it or give you advice how you could attach a screen whilst leaving the fairing on. Smile

Nothing would be done to the bike or it's fittings, just the screen, but I'll take your advice and speak to Banditmania - Thanks
