Can the standard screen on the 1150 gs be found in black? Anyone got a black screen on there's (post a pic for me). Have seen one or two tinted after market jobs but like the look and function of the original, but want it black. Any help please.
 
Go to a car "tunning" garage and have them make yours black, like they do on the stop lights on cars :)

Dan.
 
Why not just unbolt yours, give the inside a rub with 1200 grit, get a rattle can of satin black (for example) and spray it yourself? Sorted.

company is:

FLOWRIDERUK
30 Leamington road
Lanehouse
Weymouth
Dorset

this company has been selling normal and tinted screens for the 1150 GS & 1150GSA for a few months and by all accounts, all the buyers are happy with their purchases

ps - absolutely nothing to do with me either

The answer is - Yes.
I have one and it looks great (on a Mandarin) bike....

I can't remember where I got it, so can't help there, but I think it might have been from a mail-order company called M & P Accessories and it cost about $50.

A word of warning though, just in case you run into a tw@t of a traffic cop - they are subject to the "must transmit 70% of daylight" rule to be legal. (It won't)
Even if you don't look through it, but over it.

I'd be happy to post a pic if only I could work out how to do it..............
It used to be so easy to post pics. That's progress for you.
 
eire1400, couple of pics for you.

Thanks taz, like the look of that. That was my plan to spray the silver dash panel black also. One last question before I order from slr, is ur's dark tint or solid black?

Nope, the ducati 907ie had a completely opaque one as standard from the factory
 
Dark tint this was from SLR quite cheap if i remember correctly just took a couple of weeks to arrive.
 
@ TAZ / anyone else who knows

looking at your rugged yellow 1150 can you tell me what wing mirrors you have fitted please?

i think i read something somewhere about 1200KT or LE wingmirrors being adaptable / compatable

if anyone knows do please share your wisdom.....???

cheers :beerjug:
