I've spent some time experimenting with the magnets of the Ti windshilelds and have now sourced some very high quality (read as very expensive) mag tape. I shall now use this rather than seperate magnets, it does up the weight a little but removes any chance of losing a magnet.
If anyone who bought a shield previously would like me to send them some so they can retro-fit it, just email me.
1/ Flick off old magnets with a sharp blade.
2/ Remove any resin from the Ti with medium wire-wool.
3/ Wipe shield down with meths.
4/ Attach strip to INSIDE of windshield and press firmly into position - adhesive will fully cure in 24 hours.
Mag windshield update and upgrade.

Re: Mag windshield update and upgrade.
Hello Stu
Could I have a windshield if you have any left?
How do I pay you if you have any as well?
Thanks
Tim.
