    This can turn your scrambler into a 1960’s police bike.

    That is one hell of a big screen mate. Bet it provides loads of protection :):)

    Ha, I’m glad someone else has ventured into the Madstad big screen world for a classic styled Triumph... I’ve purchased a 20” Madstad for my Street Scrambler and just waiting to get the mounts fitted to the forks ... and the floods to recede before getting back out on the road. .. I do think big screens detract from the look of a classic but function needs to take priority over form in my book... hence my purchase and obviously yours. .. Is it the same reason that I have ... in that anything over 55 mph is a pain on a naked bike... I have bad tinnitus and find it quite tiresome on a longish 60/70 mph road where everyone else is travelling at the speed limit. .. having had 3 Madstads before... 2 on Tiger 800s and on a Harley Road Glide I know how good they are so hope yours .. (and mine when fitted) are as good

    Oh, and should have asked... does it work ? ...giving a wind free ride at motorway speeds with no buffeting ?

    Ok nay sayers,
    I’ve had madstad s on 2 different bikes and they’ve been brilliant.Feck the looks,the enjoyment on long distance journeys is what makes it worth it.
    No affiliation but if anyone’s reading this,can I have a discount on my next purchase?

    yes there comes a point where the ride comfort has to take priority over the looks... as I put in my previous post the Madstads were brilliant on the Tiger 800 (not quite as good on the Harley as the distance from the screen to the rider was rather a long way), so hoping for as good as the Tiger when I get mine fitted to my Street Scrambler in a couple of weeks.

    This was the same philosophy my best mate used when we were young lads out on the pull
