Is it a specific screen that fits this? Did JHP supply this?

Are you using the standard headlight mount or custome brackets?

Any pics?

Hi Tim, I still haven't fitted mine but JHP did supply the screen that it comes with. I did have to ask for it. Just ask Dave to sort you out.

You use a custome bracket that fits to the normal headlight mount. I was going to chase Dickie actually, he had some made up so I was going to ask him to get some more done from wherever that was done - using his current ones as a template.

What about your 916 nosecone? I thought you were ok on this front?

:puzzled:

Cheeky Brands Indy evening Tim? 23rd or 25th of this month after work?

You know it makes sense ;)

i used a couple of the brackets from the original challenge fairing. that i still need to get copied. so i could get a few run off as and when i get round to it. i just used 2 fixings and then put a bit of foam to stop the screen bending in at the top. sounds pants but it works ok. a bracket on the bottom of the fairing will do the job too. i'll take some piccies tomorrow to show you what i mean. the screen you need is one of the older type.

i think there may be a new points table too for those with older type screens as they mean you will get 0.01 bhp less than some other bikes. :D

:lol:

I'm assuming my screen is the same as yours. Do you reckon you could have those brackets done in the next few weeks? Before the next round?

Cheers mate.

Thanks TP / Dickie - any pics you have would be great. Jon - FO!!;)

The 996 nose will probably be OK, I'm having some probs with the brackets which don't seem up to the job and need a few changes.

But picked up a spare challenge nose fairing from Barry (he's a top fella!) in case I need a replacement.

The 996 seat unit also looks like it'll have to go, the fitment was a bit Heath Robinson and I don't think it'll survive CC.

I've also got the S4 challenge seat unit - so this would match up with the S4 nose cone too - maybe a chance for a complete respray in fluorescent orange!!!! - any cheap painters in the SE??

In truth the 996 fairing parts were cheap (no-****!!) parts that I wacked on - but in order to look proper, I need some pukka parts, hence the Challenge gear.

I'm struggling to get anytime to practice, I'm hoping to get to Silverstone with the ESS though - 24th I think.

The Brands Indy evenings kick off at 5:30 and finish at 8 - so you've got time to nick off early from work and make it over - still no good?

That's the spirit. I'm doing the 25th with Tonio and maybe a few others. It's a wednesday.
