Hello girls and boys,
after neglecting my red icon in the last weeks I finally found the time to build a small screen.
It´s made of quite thick plexi-glass. I made a templet with paper, took a picture and reworked it via computer. Afterwards I cut it out with a jig saw and took a heat fan to warm and form it. Thinner material would have been better, because it´s easier to cut and form it.
It took me too evenings and about 10 Euro.
All together I´m quite happy with my prototype. How do you like it?

I think you've done a very good job Erik, it has certainly made your bike original!

Putting your own spin on this bike is what it's all about.
Good work Erik!

I like it, looks like the stock screen on my Buell X1 Lightning.

Nicely done!

Good job on a tough project, looks better than some of the high dollar stuff on the market.

Really like that, it looks right for the bike. Well done you must have an artistic flair to get it looking just right like that. Will try and copy it if that's OK.

Erik,

When you have the time could you post some close-ups of the mounting, please? Thanks again.

Great job..
Make shit loads sell em on eBay! Make money
:hatsoff:

 

[Erik]

Thanks a lot.
Cag, please copy. Improve it and let us see the results.
@ Sarah, here are your photos. It´s mounted on the bolts of the indicators. In my opinion there is not much more necessary because the screen leans on the speedo.
@ Geeza, great idea! I have to think about that...

Erik

 

[greer]

Thank you! I'm thinking you will need a piece of foam or such between screen and speedo to protect the speedo housing, right?

Nice job Erik,

Good job and its great to see others making something from almost nothing. I still got to make another version but looking at yours I may well use some plexi glass as I can get it for nowt at work.

I think you did a wonderful job here Erik.
