Suffer from glare bouching back from the TT Perspex headlight protector on the 1200, well not me anymore

Made from the same material as the BTBR "eye lashes"

Looking from the top

Yeh, if you were ten.









Remove the perspex guard?

Sorry Al, don't like it.

Looks OK to me

 

[Sleepy]

Looks like different fixings.. but on my 1150 I just moved the protector closer to the head light and that solved the problem..

As it's now semi enclosed, does it attract dirt to the inside. Oh, I forgot, I doubt if you go out if it looks as if it's going to get dirty

Serious question though, it might make it get grubby quicker?

Don't Touratech make something exactly like this?














No seriously
I think they do
Maybe you should check the catalogue

You deserve this for your innovatively.

Yes they do, in fact I have one here.

BUT......... it does not work as good as mine

Its only enclosed across the top and part way down each side. In truth I dont much like it either. But it serves a purpose and gave me something to think about in the garage other than polishing, plus its handmade.

I also have a Touratech steel headlight guard. But the only thing that will stop is a small child sat in a pram from breaking the headlight glass!

I was also quite suprised at the amount of reflected light from that as well to be honest

The BTBR cover is only held on with a 5m strip of double sided tape, with a 20mm strip of insulating tape on the back edge to stop any stray light shining backwards.

As you say Al, the joy is in making it yourself, instead of paying someones inflated prices.

Downside of owning new bikes, I get to tinker with my 18 year old Honda as it needs, err fettling once in a while. Which I quite like doing, as long as this doesn't involve breakdown maintenance.

Is it just me or can anyone else see the irony
