Just called up skidmarx and they're going to send me samples of grey tint (10%), dark grey tint (40%) and complete black. I'll make a decision what I want (I imagine it'll be 40%) and then order soon after :)

This is a Skidmarx dark tint on mine -

I assume this is what they now call 40% is you can see through it.

Just changing tack, where can I get a bellypan fairing like the one on your bike howard?

Funny you should ask that... I'm also interested in getting one and will probably order one tomorrow from...

...wait for it...

skidmarx.co.uk

They only do them in gloss black (called them up today and said its a proper finish and can be polished up) and they are called "lower fairings" on their website

They're £130 + £7.50 delivery

It's the Skidmarx one, mentioned on a different post yesterday.
Andy posted a link to the Skidmarx Catalogue page.

Just noticed a red Falco like mine on eBay with what appears to be a black skidmarx belly pan... got to be honest, I don't like the look of it on the bike so will probably, for now, leave her the way she is

Will still be ordering a db screen though, in the 40% tint :)

Just curious - are are there any stability issues with a DB screen on the Falco? My Fut had an extended screen fitted when I bought it; I felt it was inducing a bit of instability above about 85 - 90 (and it was hideously ugly); that disappeared when I fitted a standard screen.
