would never have happened if the paint guy had not taken the cam chain tenioner out to paint it with out checking it could be done with out upsetting things

Absolutely. Poor fella nearly necked himself for doing it. Looking forward to getting her on the road next week.

Now that's what you call "uninformed."

I think I'd find a different paint guy.

Glad you got it sorted out.

Very nice ride and I like that you used the old logo

With the 250+ hp and all the weight lost with the aftermarket exhaust system and the carbon wheels have you weighed her yet? No doubt a beautiful piece of work.

cheers mate...the flyscreen is a carbon dry screen. they don't sell them anymore as they can get brackets for them but i convinced them to make me one and had custom brackets made.

Hey bud. I was able to get them to send me a fly screen but my creativity is limited on coming up with a clean mounting solution. Any chance you could send me some pics and or specs/dimensions on your mounts? Maybe I can have some made? Maybe your guy can make me some?

Let me know. Thanks!

Ponters has not been around for quite some time, and as far as I'm aware, his bike has changed hands.

I now own this bike and is one of the four Rockets I own.
The Triumph fly screen mounts are what is used for the mounting of this screen. There is a guy making brackets selling on eBay I think @Ishrub would know this info.
I can take some pics for you but I do know that the brackets have been modified as the gauges were moved etc

It’s my precious

Oh look there it is now, the greatest R3 ever assembled.

I can’t believe it’s never been a cover bike for a magazine. Hands down the greatest build imo to ever grace this earth.

Yep Dave Gill in the UK makes stainless steel versions powdercoated black in 2 styles - matching stock screen position and a customized version which brings the bottom tip forward an inch similar to Ponter's (now @Mittzy 's) Bike above and allows easier access to your ignition lock and key etc. but you may have to drill some new holes in it to get exactly the orientation you want.

Easiest to buy on eBay through his toyota6510 used id or his online store called Rocke's Patches. Sometime he is a little hard to contact but great bloke.

Cheaper with better postage rates too at his Rocke's Patches site though for many of the same items but he does not restock or have the same range here for body bits anymore.

He makes and sells quite a few things that may appeal like Fiberglass (GRP) Bearclaws (with vented grilles or not) and even a RHS dummy version for a similar look on both sides of your tank and FAR, FAR, FAR cheaper than Carbon Dry's fiberglass or similar versions of things.
