Looks as if you had a cracking day with some spectacular scenery.
The AH looks good as well

important: take out the connecting fuel hose, between the 2 injection horns, replace it with a new one (high quality!!!). this small piece of hose gets brutally hot while the engine is running and therefore the small cracks and holes in it. also replace the 2 hose clamps with professional ones (stock ones are one-timers and dermot!!!) i got sprayed with fuel  . i am ok, but my front screens are a total loss now. hundreds of small cracks.

I've just had exactly the same thing happen - grrrrr! The love hate relationship continues - how much is a screen I'm now thinking - maybe it's time for a pair of Brooklands aero screens. New pipe and connectors reqd too.

If you have one of the screens near enough complete, then any plastics firm can cut to that pattern I got mine done when had one screen shatter due to petrol spray. Cost NZD 25. GBP 12 I found replacement hard on the knuckles as accessability is limited! Patience works well, but Im more grumpy in disposition!

This must be an S&S -supplied part of the engine. Am surprised its not fit for purpose.

OMG – glad you’re both OK.
Yet another item to add to the checklist…
