DIY FJ-09 Touring Windscreen

Just found this FJR screen on Aliexpress and considering a similar modification, I have a question in with the seller to find out the price of the +15cm option.

That's cheap!   Wonder if they also do a screen for our FJ-09/ MT-09, similarly priced.

The seller says "choose this order and tell me that I need +15cm, I will change the price for you. The price is $ 78." I'll report back if I decide to go for it.
Ask if you can get it without the holes drilled for the FJR mounting.  Nice price for a windscreen.    Just a note here:  I bought a VStream sport touring windscreen (the middle sized one) and it works ok, but the one I made from the FJR Touring windscreen worked better with less buffeting and wind about the same.  If I see another FJR Touring come up on the FJR Forum, I will get it and make another, that is if snocofj does a good job and reports back  how wonderful his is working, then I may order one of these.

I asked if I could get it without holes and the seller said "OK". There was a little back and forth, so I'm not sure if it will show up with holes or not, but I ordered the +15cm version. I plan to cut it similar to redfjniner's, I think it is still the best looking large screen either made or bought.

Interesting find snocofj, keep us posted when it turns up.

The new shield came in the mail today, there are no holes and it feels like good quality. It may be a while before I get to the modification and mounting, but I will at least take some pictures. The process was a little complicated, make the order (with a note requesting the +15cm and no holes) without paying, then make payment after the price was adjusted for the +15cm.
