It'll be a week or so before I collect it, first thing I think it's going to want is a screen, would a yellow tinted one be a bit too tasteless?

Nice one

I'll be really interested how you like it? I have been looking at these myself recently, along with the MT range.

Nice one,👍yes a yellow screen would be too much. It'd be a black one of it were mine. ( But it isn't of course)

I'm not keen on that screen shape, Yoshimura did a nice shape one for the previous version but not for the 2020 model

Didn't think there were any changes since 2017? The 1000 has had an update this year but thought the 750.was the same all through?

I was just going by Yoshimura listing it for up to and including 2017

Looked at a couple of GSXR1000s, but I'd rather have a 750, with the old ones I found the 1000s but too much to control, but I only weighed 10 stone 20 years ago, I also think the more upright riding position will suit road riding better, especially the pot holed mess we have locally.

This screen from Powerbronze is the best one I've found so far, I'll probably go for clear or light tint

I'd be biting their hand off if they did, though they'd probably make a mess of it like they have with the new Katana 1000

I went for light smoke on screen and wished I'd got dark smoke after. 🤔

Puig make a touring screen but not sure it suits the style of bike. Probably more effective but not as nice looking. Only do clear too

On a lot of bikes, screens don't take long to swap, so having sport and touring options isn't a bad thing. :thumbup:
