I was kinda bored for the past couple of night and it was raing, so I decied to make a fly screen while I'm waiting for my faring. I made it out of lexan , while trying to make a windshield to fit around my head light. I got upset at it while trying to cut out a circle. I cut the circle in half and folded the half together (trying to show it who's boss) . The lexan showd me that it didn't want to break, but it did make a cool cone shape. I heated to two halves together , and it stayed. The fly screen doesn't work to bad! I think it looks kinda cool. Just though I would show you guys. Thanks for your time.

Bigger pics would be good.
I also made my own screen (Sort off). In northern Thailand the taxi's are the front half of a bike with basically a two wheel trailer as back end to carry passengers. I bought the screen fittings for one of these for a whole 8 bucks Oz and then bought a screen (again 8 bucks for 2!) from a Fino, which is a small scooter type bike.
Cut the length of taxi fitting to suit and re drilled the Fino screen to match holes. really happy with it actually and it is adjustable in tilt and in height. Height not so much now as I cut down the bar, to the height that suits me.

Unless Phil and Elvis are the same and it's all internet hoaxery.

hmmm ... weird for sure.
First - thanks guys who PMing me and bringing this to my attention.
2nd - this is enough reason for me to boot Elvis from the building, but he's been linking to a parts place in his sig line as well (in other threads/posts). Either way, looks like his presence here has an agenda or ulterior motive.
If he wants to discussing his quick departure, then he can email me through the webmaster contact.
