(Lost the first 2 when I was putting the original screen onto track fairings, haven't lost them all today - I'm not a completely useless tart). No problem, I thought, I'll just open the packet of Screen Screws and well-nuts I bought from Halfords this afternoon. Nope. They're the wrong size - about twice as big as the original Ducati screen ones. So, my question is:- a) am I going to have a problem at all riding with a screen that hasn't been properly secured? It was the last 3 at the bottom by the dials - the top part is properly screwed on and b) has anyone in my vicinity who is going on the BHC rideout tomorrow got any spares that they'd let me use until I can find some that fit? It looks a bit naff with 3 screws missing but I won't notice that when I'm on the bike.  That other thing I've realised is it's quite difficult to get the screen on properly when the nose cone is fitted to the bike. I daresay everyone in the world apart from me knows this but now I realise the screen should go on before the nose cone goes back on the bike. God, if only I had a logical bone in my body, I'd be dangerous!  Am off out now but will be checking the board for replies late tonight. | |
