A new flyscreen option

I don't know what you guys will think about this. I believe I'm Mostly done, but not quite. I need to clean up the attachments, but other that that I am quite happy with my result, both in appearence and function.
I had the idea for a long time but could not get a suitable screen from another bike to butcher up. They were too thin and would crack, plus expensive, so I tried on 3 used sportbike screens and could not cut the plastic without messing it up. One time I cracked the screen drilling the last hole. This screen is for a snowmobile. It's more like hard plastic, and was easier to work with.
Honestly the pics do not do it justice, but I'm a little biased.

Someday I'll figure out how to do that.
The pics are in my member album on this site, if someone wants to try to post them here correctly, please do so if you see fit.

That looks similar to the Ermax addition for our bat-screens.

Looks like a neat job you have done there, how much difference do you feel?

Has anyone tried the Ermax screen , and if so was it worth it and how easy to fit? Heres a link

I had not seen the ermax screen before, but does look like I totally copied it, I hope they don't come after me for copyright infractions.
It does help with the windblast pretty good, but it really makes the shift lights easier to see in the day time.

Dont worry I think your blue screen really works on your bike and Ermax only do 'em in black. Even though you had a couple of goes at it, surely it is more satisfying that you have the only one like it?
