Naked?

I know this has been brought up a million times but not on this forum. So, what does everyone think about fly screens? I have answered NAKED many times but the fly screen is growing on me. I have been looking at my bike lately and it seems like something is missing in the front. It could also have to do with the fact that i like sportsbikes.

I had the S4 with the flyscreen and liked it a bit. It really only helped when you were tucked down nice and tight. With the S3 I like the fact that it hides the ugly instrument cluster, but at the same time it takes away from the nakedness. SOOOOOOOO, I vote for no flyscreen, as naked as possible. Then again some people like to leave things to the imagination!
Like, 2001 flyscreen.

Hate, 2002-2004 flyscreen. (my bike btw)

Like a lot 2005-2006 flyscreen.
I likes it on and off, can't really decide which one I like better! :p
Cheap, do you have any head on pictures of your S3 with the fly screen you could post?

Also, how easy it is to take on and off?

Thanks

yeah man, no prob, I'll try to get some pics up tonight. It's not too bad changing it out. Of course, I've only put it on once, and removed it once, but it prolly takes around 5 minutes. I'll try to get those pics up ASAP.

Curb feelers for CB!! Do you young'ins know what curb feelers are??
Yeah, those little wispy metal rods that stick out the side of the old-school/classic cars.

Yeah, they were springs that rubbed up against the curb when you got close and they
made a pretty loud noise. I think that the "economical" one needs a set ( four )

I agree. I fabbed a Buell CF flyscreen onto my 2004 but am not crazy about hte looks. It keeps the dead bugs off my chest and allows me to duck behind it whilest doing 200+ Kmh.
Who thinks paying full price ($260) for the triumph OEM fairing is worth it? Do you think I can find it cheaper?
