Looks great!!

I bought the F-16 about a month ago but haven't had a chance to install it yet. :whistle:

They don't list the KZ's for that model shield. I also picked a ZR550 Zephyr thinking it should be close to the same. I'm hoping mine mounts up Ok.:unsure: I think it will since it mounted OK on yours. I don't know why they don't list more bike models or at least sell it as a "universal" fit. I think it would work on a lot more bikes than are listed.

For us older folks, "sick" is good, right?:lol:

hahaha.. yeah, "sick" is good :)

The F-16 was chosen 'cause it worked on the 550 zephyr. I figured it was a universal Kawi 7" headlight, so things wouldn't have changed much.. I was right, no problems.

Talking to a Tea and Crumpets Triumph rider today, he recommended the little fly screen that fits the new Retro Triumphs. He's got one of those new scramblers, and the windscreen is really nice.

I even think with the right bodgering, it would replace the cowl that goes around the headlight itself.

I'd probably sand off the Triumph logo, though. Nothing wrong with Triumph or anything, but my bike is proud to be a Kaw.
