I have done a lot of riding around town and on small roads lately. So I got this idea that I should try and make my old RS a bit more comfortable. Said and done, I ordered a set of GenMar risers and a Powerbronze Airflow screen.
Then I went out for a fine Sunday on twisty roads with the boys. We covered 250 miles and it felt really good in my arms and the screen directed the air in the right places without any buffeting.

The screen looks good - where do you get one?

Also, tell us about the mirrors - they look great - but do they work?

Ditto and ditto. Those are great looking mirrors. Do they come in black?

I have the Gen-Mar risers and the Triumph Aero screen on my 04' RS. The screen is in fact the "double bubble" design that has become so popular lately. And for good reason ; it retains the sleek looks of the factory piece while pushing away a good bit more air . There is no buffeting effect at all either. As far as the risers go ; I would highly recommend these. They are as high as you can go without hitting the fairing and still retain the aggressive stanse of the factory setup. They really did thier homework on these. Not just some "one size fits all" risers.

I have the Powerbronze Airflow and the Skyking Risers. A great combination. I purchased my screen from The Superbike Store in Ann Arbor. David is the guy to talk to.

Thanks guys,

The mirrors are from Taiwan but they work all right. Don’t know if they do them in black, mine are aluminum and one good thing is that they stick out 1/2 inch more then the original. Bought them from Lois. Sorry, but as far as I know this site is only in German.
The screen is a Powerbronze Airflow, dark tint. If you don’t find one in you neighborhood you can always order directly from UK.
