SortedGT Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I was lucky in that my bike came with just about every worthwhile accessory already fitted. Too many to list. One that wasn't was a TFT screen protector. I went with Speedo Angels Tempered Glass Screen Protector, same as I've used on my smart phone and it has saved the screen numerous times. YAMAHA R1(M) / MT-10SP / 900 Tracer GT Tempered Glass Dashboard Screen Protector - Ultra Clear ... Couple of snaps, before and after. 10% discount also available, use code = missenden.

Supporting Member betoney Posted February 22, 2020 Supporting Member Share Posted February 22, 2020 @SortedGT - I wonder if they changed their design, those look much better that what I got a few years ago. Mine were translucent, not transparent, everything looked foggy and out of focus, I ended up throwing mine in the trash right away. ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice and protective. Does make the screen slightly more reflective as shown in the photos but not to the naked eye. Quite nerve racking to fit, but as long as the screen is as clean as possible, it goes on well. I did have a couple of trapped air bubbles after fitting but I was able to squeeze one out and the other went when the bike was run up to temp. You may think it unlikely that the clocks will get damaged and you may be right, but I'd be really pissed off if some scumbag damaged/scratched them when the bike was parked up somewhere away from home. Replacements are nearly £800, just for the part. So makes sense to spend a little to protect them while they're still in mint condition. Once scratched forever seen...

bugie Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 I've been running their anti-glare screen. I live in the Mediterranean and this screen has been awesome. Completely removes the suns glare and still keeps the dash completely readable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, you are correct. It came with 2 screens, I painstakingly followed the directions and neither of them worked, it was almost like smearing a light coating of grease on the screen, out of focus. 🤬 ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporting Member Heli ATP Posted March 23, 2022 Supporting Member Share Posted March 23, 2022 Had the Speed Angels Screen protector on the FJ and now will order for the Niken on ebay. The seller explains the different finishes and how Anti-glare may not be as clear as Ultra-Clear. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2047675.m570.l1313&_nkw=YAMAHA+Dashboard+Screen+Protector+2+x+Clear+%26+Anti-Glare&_sacat=0 Most of our screen protector kits are available in both Ultra-Clear and Anti-Glare finishes. Please read the below descriptions to ensure you choose the correct screen protector kit:Ultra-Clear - Provides scratch resistance and protection whilst being almost invisible once applied.Anti-Glare - Provides the same scratch resistance and protection as our Ultra-Clear protectors, but also helps to remove the glare/reflections associated with LCD / dashboards. Anti-glare protectors have a 'matte' appearance once fitted. On some displays the anti-glare properties can reduce the sharpness of the display slightly. If you are unsure of whether you would prefer ultra-clear or anti-glare we recommend purchasing one of our 4 pack kits that contains both. Please see our other items.
