Gustaffson +10 screen on a Steamer - looking for comments
Fellow Steamers,
I've already purchased the screen; but haven't yet installed it (busy doing other stuff related to getting the bike inspected/registered). I have noticed a lot of Steamer pics with this screen installed, and I'd like to get some inputs from those of you who have it.
Specifically, a) why did you install a taller screen? and b) how does the Gustaffson perform in actual riding use?
Thanks in advance!

Never mind. Mounted and went for a ride. It's brilliant!

Lots more pics here: http://foothillryder.com/simba-the-steamer/
I've now put well over 1000 miles on the bike with this screen. It does precisely what a windscreen should do without inducing any buffeting of any kind.

Damm that bike looks good fella.
Love the screen, going hunting for one.
The LED lights look the nuts - where did you get them?
The seat is stunning, love it! (more hunting). Great wife to have done that for you.
Cheers for the pics, sweet looking Tiger.

Done a quick search for the Gustaffson +10 screen and can't find any info/site for it. Would you happen to have a link for the website.
Cheers fella.

Thanks for the compliments lad. The LED lights I got from a gent on another bike forum; but I'm sure I can find a link to his website. They're wicked bright, that's for sure. 2000 lumens is the rating.
Here's a link to the Gustaffson:
http://www.bikescreen.com/proddetail...095-%6098%2B10
Cheers!
EDIT: Here's the website for the lights: https://www.teslaleds.com/default.aspx . Looks like he's only offering the 3600 lumen version now; but his pricing has improved. Good quality stuff.

My pleasure lad! If there's one mod you make to your Steamer, that screen should be it.
