flip screens

[Ian Westlake]

Hi Kevin,
Nice to see another UK geepster!
I had the same problem with the powerbronze screen. I changed to the  
MRA Touring screen. Not cheap or the best looker (can email some pics  
direct if u want) but these guys sure know about airflow . Can get  
them in UK from BikeHPS . If your anywhere near Suffolk you could try  
a quick ride on mine to see if it's better but might need to be sooner  
than later as reluctantly have to sell my baby soon. :-(
Welcome again
