…so ; finally I had the change to test the Puig screen this midday…

…this morning started with minus 5 degrees Centigrade, and today around two I saw 2 degrees C. on thermometer…

…and we all know, sunny, and dry two degrees are enough for a little (test) ride…

…I can write a long story ; but it is quite simple. This somewhat higher is screen is so much better than the (much too) low stock one…

…suddenly I saw 230 (144 mph) on the speedometer, and I was still in an ‘upright’ position…
…you can tour, in every comfort, around with, lets say 140-150 km/h (88-94 mph)…

…no buffeting…
…no extra annoying wind noise (hard to say of course, I have a quiet helmet (BMW Sportintegral), and custom made ear-plugs)…
…and at lower speeds, between 80 and 110 km/h (50 to 69 mph), there is still enough pressure against the shoulders, for not getting sore wrists…

…this screen gives you a wind protection a bit like on the 1100S…



…well ; my conclusion : I’m happy with my new screen !



…a few pics I took today…


we had a cold start this morning





here I am in Vollenhove ; with its odd church





once, long ago, Vollenhove was a fishing-village





Uncle Sam (name of that little boat) in Vollenhove


(I think ; at the end of the week we can skate here !)


very cold ; but a great day for a little tour





after Vollenhove, I visited Hasselt





…and home again...
