That's an aftermarket Sprint screen, made in the UK, oddly enough. They are pretty rare, but the odd ons does turn up. Early ones are all clear; the later ones are in two pieces as per that one. It has small holes in the lower section designed to improve air flow and curtail some of the CN's worst behaviour in side winds - and it works too! Or I should say that it did, once I removed the rubber bungs the clown who owned it before me had bunged then up with :lol: He was one of these who always thinks he knows best when, in reality, the best thing he could have done was to leave it alone.

Sorely, yes! The DN is a great machine, but I have missed the Helix. I think one of them will be coming out next year.

We must get these wonderful Helix bikes back on the road where they belong, 70 mph cruise is fast enough for any sane person, I have a thing about speed — those who wish to exceed speed limits - by any amount should have to pay for their own hospital treatment for LIFE or just die from results of their own making. This may sound harsh but why should the NHS be expected to pay for 180mph idiot racers such as recorded recently on police cameras?
