Jim,
What, no riding between now and when the new screen arrives.

Humpfff!
If i didn't know any better i would say that you were taking the mickey !
I'll explain...yesterday i fitted a digitool gear indicator on to stripey. Got it all fitted up and thought right!....time to go out and calibrate it (god i wish the Tigers had the speed sensor on the rear wheel). I looked at the sky and it was a cloudless blue, cold, but ideal!, roads had dried out and i thought...brilliant.
Off is set and within 10 minutes somebody switched off the lights :razz: and visibility went to about 50 yds in the worst downpour of sleet and snow i could have wished for
By the time i had tried (in vain) to calibrate it, i was soaked (even through my Hein Gericke jacket, via the cuffs and neck) the bike which had been stripey's usual gleaming standard, was minging

Absolutely covered in that ghastly post snow road crud and enough salt to virtually shovel off :razz: .
So Davie......the reason for the screen being off is because i have had to virtually strip the bike down to clean all the crap off :razz:
Oh the joys of motorcycling in this green and sceptred isle
