Fitted a MG tall screen and bags , had some problems with the brackets for the pannier set
also the instructions are very vague.
Screen works well ,some more adjustments and it will be great.
Will be having a serious bitch to MG about their aftermarket suppliers, the Qa for the brackets
is non existent, will be cutting and rewelding to get them to fit correctly.
Any way heres some pics to check out.
Damn, I've got the have to just play with it a little bug----AGAIN!!!
later swagzz

All looks pretty neat swagzz. :mrgreen:
Now all you need is a pair of 1200S black mirrors, which look better and don't seem to vibrate as much as those standard chrome ones.

Do you actually get any benefit from the screen? I put the smokey plastic one on the Breva (used to be standard with the original 750), but I still get turbulence and hence noise from the front of the bike at certain speeds. If I duck down behind the screen, or stand up away from it, it's quieter!
Still, it keeps the bugs out of the instruments :D

Looks good, from a distance you'd be lucky to notice it I imagine. So it keeps the bikes naked look. The brackets do look a bit ordinary, I was thinking a coat of black paint might make them look better and blend into the bike more.
