Looks good Duke!
Pretty much how mine is configured atm too. The shorty dark smoke screen I put on completely got rid of the buffeting I had with the touring screen.

Re: More sport and less touring
Can't really say I noticed much difference on mine this afternoon in terms of wind resistance. At warp factor nine the front does go very light though. 
It's a lovely piece of carbon but then it ought to be.

Re: More sport and less touring
I like that a lot Duke - you're pretty close to my ideal bike there! 
Definitely more focused and a big improvement over standard.
Ages ago I saw and copied a couple of pics of a well done Mutley and your bike reminds me of that - your bikes seat/rack area looks less fussy though, iirc the gold wheels promoted a love/hate response from a lot of people from wherever I found it, fwiw I liked them, any thoughts?

I really don't get the whole gold wheels thing, but then I don't like gold anything really. Even my wedding band, it was titanium.Blade wrote:Gold wheels look stunning.
Do it Duke

Actually wrote that then deleted it. Thought my professing adversion to gold made me biased. Glad you agree!!duke63 wrote:Not really sure the gold wheels suit the Multi. Prefer mine black.
