Sunblock for the Zumo

After making a DIY windscreen out of a trashcan for my dualsport I it got me to thinking about some sun protection for the Zumo 665. I already had one of those glare stompers i bought from Amazon and it works pretty well but I wanted something a little more rigid. The trash can was a little too thick for this project but I had a slightly used, very flimsy, yellow cutting board I found in the kitchen..."oh yes, this will do nicely"! Little bit of measuring and cutting and painting.....bauda bing, bauda boom and here it is. Easy peasy and works great! Total cost, zero dollars since I had some velcro left over from my wind screen project.

And since I know your all dying to see the trash can windscreen even though its not on a FJR......Baam!

If you did half the job on the screen as you did on the windshield (I've seen it), it is killer.
