Sweet fuckin' deal!!

Its my 21st birthday tomorrow, and her indoors is buying me the palmer products bracket! (I'm buying the screen).

Awesome though :)

P.S. I emailed Iain Palmer about the postage costs, I thought £17.50 was a bit much for the screen and bracket and he emailed back saying with costs of packaging e.t.c. he thinks its fair, but he did compromise and said as they only have powdercoated brackets at the moment, he is letting me have one at no extra charge. Today is win!


EDIT:
Things just got more awesome, my Uncle Dave turns up with a Triumph T-Shirt, 25% voucher off triumph accessories and parts, a mega winter neck buff, and £50 towards the screen!! Fucking love 21st birthdays ;) Old enough to have an awesome bike, and young enough to get help paying for it :P

hi, can you put a picture of the new screen installed? I am thinking of buying one and would like to know the verdict, thanks

hello come here to take this topic to take my doubts, I want to buy a better screen than the original, was thinking of a cee baileys. I am 193cm and travel, I suffer with rain, cold, wind, etc., and would like to improve it! researched the ceebaileys is good, but some users find that the MRA VARIO is better. please help! wanted a higher screen, but it was aerodynamic, not to be like walking with bus

I am 1m82 and my cee baileys #2 light grey +4.5 is just a little to short.  I think you should go for the +6 or +8

You'll be fine untill you get fed up with riding around this tiny island we live on,and if you ever head for warmer climes take it off before you go,that barn door will be a nightmare.

Hello, and what's your verdict?its the biggest screen? photos please? I've contacted Palmer via email, and I see that customer service is 5 stars. what users say is the larger screen can be a problem for damaging the fairing in great speeds. Palmer  say some client put brace but looks very bad! and that I can send back  the big screen and they send the average size no problem if i wish to change.

here is the palmer mail

Hi,
I've have sold a lot of 955 kits with the large screen without any
reported issues.

Some bikes seem to have a more rigid fairing than others and the bike I
used to design the kit didn't need any bracing.

I have heard from a recent customer who needed to make a couple of
braces - picture attached.
