Katana Owners Club U.K.

Looks like I may be returning to gainful employment very shortly and am planning to use the Kat 650 to commute to work. It's about a 65 mile round trip and wondered if anyone could recommend a decent fitting fly screen or nose fairing that will fit straight on to the 650.
I did tried a Mini Pro Cockpit Fly Screen in silver and it didn't fit very well at all. These are on e-bay for £40 although I managed to pick one up for £20 and sell it on for £25 so nothing lost there.
Alternatively if anybody has anything suitable that they want to sell on please let me know. Not averse to a little paint job if necessary.
The American spec 650's were fitted with a really nice cockpit fairing from the factory.
Thanks
Alan

Try looking for something from a BMW 650 ls

" the original Kat ?? "

the 'kat' styled 650 bmw is called an r65ls, although speaking of bmw's i thing that the small fairing on the k100 is a pretty good looking one,

I bought this for my 550. Not sure if i want it. Will have a think. Would you be interested. Its scruffy.

Pete,
Think that needs a bit too much work for me although I'm sure it will look great on the bike when finished.
Really just looking for a fly screen that will fit the bike and do a decent job. I think the fairing option is going to be too expensive although the fairing on the K100 looks great. I have looked for the BMW 650 on e-bay before as I do know about the Kat link but I think they were a pretty rare bike to start with.

aye, 65ls stuff is rare indeed!

Al the fairing I had is now on Jmacs 650 and was a bit , no very scruffy .

I have always used a fly screen that locates to the headlamp retaining bolts,
No sure of make but were sold by motrax , so that'll be M&P now. Universal and are quite , no this is me very cheap.

GIVI do a good fly screen but at Givi Prices , that's not to say it's expensive , it's more I'm tight.

Fossie,
Could you have a quick look at this link to M&P when you get a minute and let me know which screen you have used.

The problem with the screen I tried that it was a terrible fit around the headlamp with massive gaps which looked awful.
Much appreciated
