I asked something similar a bit back for my lad.

Have a look at this thread.

Basically need a screen to fit 7" headlight.
Bandit was mentioned.

I really wouldn't bother tbh, I've ridden mine for 3 hours at 70 and couldn't think of a use for it. keep in mind it only does 70 at a push so a fly screen would slow it down if anything, and they look ridiculous Confused

I'm minded to agree that a fly screen mounted on a headlight doesn't really do anything except send air up your helmet. You'll want something a lot taller for real wind protection. 1m x 50cm x 3mm perspex (or lexan), hacksaw, heat gun and some patience will make you a custom screen for a lot less than you'd pay retail.

Other way round, you're more likely to get better top speed and better MPG with a screen than without.
