    To all you guys fitting bigger screens to the tr, my headlight assembly rattles around at 110kms per hour. As In I can notice rattles on the indicator mounts and Speedo. What's it like with an aftermarket screen?

    I have the factory windscreen on mine, and I don't think it changes things. Occasionally while I'm going over rough stuff I look down and see that whole assembly rattling around. I don't know if anyone has broken one, but I can't help but think "this is made from the same crap as the rear fender". I wonder if those of us who go off road a lot will find these breaking. I really hope not. I hold 80-90MPH for distance on occasion and it moves, but have become unconcerned about it just because it hasn't broken yet under some harsh circumstances.

    I inadvertantly answered some of your questions on a recent post. The Madstad windscreen uses support braces that makes the headlight/fairing assembly very stiff or shall I say supported. I am currently trying to figure out the correct configuration to keep wind buffeting and headlight glare (from the TR) to make this work.
