Finally received the sport screen for the TMax. It took around an hour to install. Now the only thing left is the newer black rear carrier and I'm set.

I'll take it for a ride tomorrow hoping there will be less helmet noise than the stock screen.

Put a new dip beam bulb in the Max.
And tried to find out why the clock stopped working (failed

)

Does the clock have a separate small battery in dash under clock?

Thanks guys.
The clock is powered from the battery, not power getting to the clock, (checked the supply, nothing) traced the wire back as far as i i could,
nothing seems broke or any connectors corroded,
not a big problem, just liked to have a working clock.

My 5th day of using only the M25/M4 for my commute, (and it's saved me loads of time given the increased amount of slow-moving traffic on the roads lately). Although further in distance than the more direct route through suburbia, my journey is now approx 45 mins whereas through town with all the stop/starting for lights and getting stuck behind traffic can easily take half an hour longer on a bad day. Have got confident to filter between middle and overtaking lane but do make way for other bikers who filter faster. Generally if the traffic is moving at 40mph or above I ride with it, if it's slower I filter through. My gortex jacket and trousers also working well and haven't felt a drop of rain. Also find riding the Tmax seems stable / better in the rain than my previous Xmax's.
Ordered a new sports screen from Yamabits last month as I feel the helmet buffeting at higher speeds which can make my vision slight blurred! taking ages for it to come.
I actually now like using the motorway, especially in the rain! - compared to through town in the rain.
