Yeah shim under bucket is a bit of a pain as the camshafts have to be lifted out. It doesn't seem to difficult on my Silverwing though as its only a few bolts and they're held in separately so you can just lift one.
Shim over bucket is much nicer. My old Divvy had those and they were easy to adjust - helped by the fact that my bike shop lent me his box of assorted shims to take home while I did it! Good bloke.

Under bucket shims should be illegal.

I've been after a new screen ever since one got broken when a load of stuff fell out of the garage rafters onto the Fusion.

Chinese screens are wafer thin crap and importing from the USA is a very expensive proposition, so I was well pleased to find an Italian shop selling NOS Givi touring screens at a very reasonable price. Just arrived this morning :mrgreen:

Didn't know you wanted one! They're still reasonable even with the shipping, what with the Euro being on its arse and all :D

Just off to work now but I'll find you the link later...

Put the new top box on it - Givi V56 - it's a monster! I think it goes well with the Honda panniers though.

That looks nice RTFM - the panniers and the box suit the bike.
That picture makes me want to load up and go camping somewhere (apart from it being November).
I suppose that says it all about the bike really - I like it!
