Great photos!

In particular, I like the red rickman screen. Guessing you made it?

It’s Carl Jones bike so I would assume he made it.

Great pics and the Innova/Schwalbe looks like a perfect mix of Eastern block style and Honda practicality.

Also like the red flyscreen on the C90, food for thought there. :D

The Simova or the C90 with the red screen? Can't deny liking the both. :D

As it happens I've ordered some red perspex and dug out my templates so there will hopefully be a couple of duplicates down here. If the first one turns out OK, if not I will go strangely quiet on the subject. :lol:

Great ride out yesterday, 2 new Cubs Harry’s ‘Honda Cossack’ & my trusty Cub. I made the screen a few years back from 3mm red acrylic/Perspex. Trail and error and shaped by warming with a blow torch and pulling into shape with the fixing bolts. Cut out with a jigsaw and polish the edges with Abranet.
I did 200 miles yesterday and the new engine is now run in and pulls well, thank you Alan CF :D
