Love it! Did you see my version with the square number board? It really makes a big difference 
Yet another DIY windscreen
Here's my take on the winscreen thingy. I took the easy route and basically gathered stuff around and really didn't manufacture anything.
So from beginning I knew I wanted to try oval number plate as windscreen. Ordered one from eBay (13€).
The brackets was another consideration. I had some shear hangers or joist brackets (terminology goes above my knowledge of English language, sorry - picture included). One of these is worth something like 3€ so still on the cheap. Just some cutting and grinding. The one I used could have been longer, but as that was what was in garage so I went with it for the mock-up.
Next up a cardboard mock-up to cut the slot for the headlight. Had some carbon fiber around so I even added the numbers on the plate.

Yes, Welcome along Skulls, good to have you with us
That looks good, I like my Dart screen as it makes a huge difference to the wind resistance on my body and allows me to go a lot faster on dual carriageways/motorways without feeling I'm going to be blown off the back. But the wind is deflected to my head area and while I don't 'feel' it as such, the turbulence produces a lot of wind noise and I now have permanent tinnitus!!![]()
. I HAVE to wear earplugs but even so the damage is done .
