Im keen to see it as I cant imagine what you would do to improve what you already have....
Where you off to (OS)?
 
First, sweet bike. Very well thought out and executed.

Second, can you tell me where you got that flyscreen? If you can't tell by my avatar, I love the mean/angry look of this Carbon Dry Japan piece but wouldn't you know it seems to be the ONLY part of their "Rocket Monster" that they don't sell on their website. When I contacted them they said they no longer sell it. Is yours a knock-off or did you run across one somewhere? I must have one of these screens!! If anyone knows where I can get one please do tell.

 

Mate, mine is a Carbon Dry Japan piece. I've bought all there rocket stuff except for tank and rear guard. The reason they stopped selling the front flyscreen is a problem with the mounting brackets. I love it. It looks the ducks nuts and works it too. I agreed to organise my own brackets so the made me one. Maybe you should contact them and say you are happy to buy just the screen without mounting brackets and they'll make you one.

Very good info mate. Thank you. It looks like you may have used the Triumph brackets for the standard factory fly screen and modified them (added extra hardware onto them?) to fit the Carbon Dry screen. Am I correct? I currently have the factory screen and brackets so I could do that too if they would make and sell me just the screen.
 
i actually had some custom brackets made to accommodate my custom bars and navman. but i reckon with some tampering you could use the stock ones.
 
There's a member on the Speed Triple forum , calls himself Dodge... makes really tidy carbon fibre bits at less than half the price others seem to ask. All the blokes that have bought bits from him seem pleased with his products. Pretty sure he's UK based though.
