I've got one of the last of the oil-cooled, a Dark White, which is unashamedly a "fair weather bike"; an RT is far better in bad weather.
I've got a C Bailey's taller screen, 3M Ventureshield on the vulnerable parts of the paintwork, & Wunderlich fork gaiters.
On a summers day, this is my favourite bike.
 
Got some bar end mounts made up so now have GS hand guards fitted.

Having noticed the rad fins getting all mangled through the summer I've just fitted this not sure if to leave it silver or paint it black

Hi Wreck diver. No as just about smallest set at 20mm. Did have to fit a small bracket that repositions the lower hose mounting, it came in the kit. Was a bit of a fiddle but lets the hose a bit more slack. Did make a big difference to riding position though, more upright. Not GS upright just takes that pressure of the wrists and and stops you sliding back surprisingly. One of my better buys .
 
Took the classic out for a run today after swoping the touring screen for the sport screen,mmm not sure.
Hadn't used it for a while,it reminded me how nice these twin cams are:thumby:

Just fitted different screen
I've added a lower dark tint to the bottom section but I've yet to try it out

That looks like a Puig, though I could be wrong.
Hope you can share your impressions of it in due course!

cheers

Your right on there Tony Puig it is,, but quirky ( like the bike) but fits nicely and not expensive £56

Having ridden with the standard Puig screen I found it caused too much pressure on my forehead and quite a bit of noise from turbulence.. Looking at it and the screen in my GS I decided to hacksaw of some ... First trim made impressive difference but still a bit of noise so trimmed again and not only does it now look like a BMW genetic screen it works fantastically for me.. Cruising at all legal speeds is very comfy and remarkable protection to body for what is a narrow screen..

I then painted the lower inside to hide clocks and in my eyes make a better looking screen ..

Been thinking about this. Looks great. How did you source the wheels?
