Sure do have a nice one made by West End Motor, shaped high tech design. Go direct to them or to premiercycleaccessories.com and look at the page of products for the GTR. Good stuff there pal. I'll send you a pic of mine.

Saeng/TA?

Zed Meister,

Maybe this is what you are looking for?

http://www.saeng.com/category.php?category=51

I saw this over at the www.Triumphrat.net forum (I also own a Daytona 1200) in the Trophy section. Evidently some of the Trophy owners like this product and claim it reduces/eliminates buffeting.

Here is the thread on the Triumph site where I read about this. You may find their comments helpful.

Personally, I use a Cee Bailey "Euro Cut" windscreen for when I go touring. I find it quite effective. For shorter rides I use the stock windshield with a Laminar Lip. I also use the "kwiKover" that Laminar sells and like that too.

Thanks Anddreas,

I see Skidmarx has a dark tinted screen for the Triumph Daytona 1200. Hard to find that and I may add it to my D12.

cardiffmc,

See my first post above! My Laminar Lip fits on with small velcro circles that come with the Lip. Laminar reccos that you use screws only for very fast riding to ensure the Lip does not fly off. However, I have been to 125m.ph (202k.m.h) and no problem with Lip staying on.

I found that the Lip moves the air at most about 2" (5cm.) higher. Still marginal for me as I am 6'4' (1.93m) so for long trips I use "Euro Cut" Cee Bailey windscreen.
