Now, we move on to reshaping the windscreen with black vinyl. First, we outline and mark the screw positions. After cleaning things up, I remove two of the mounting bolts (hope they aren't necessary).

I don't show how I got the next shape, but I basically copied the top outline, flipped it upside-down, then deleted some of the horizontal line connecting the two sides so that it would fit it inside the remaining mounting bolts. This is the new false line for the windscreen.

Lastly, we fill in what remains visible of the headlight and windscreen.


Ready to see what it all looks like on the bike? Just let me delete the top outline aaaaaannnnd:


BAM!

I'm actually STILL not done. I don't like that the single bulb is so easily visible, I don't like the fluted lens, and I don't like how thick the CF border we have is. I think I have a solution for all of this coming up in the next post.
