Here is a drawing of a screen I made myself from 5mm acrylic (Perspex) and some aluminium strip I happened to have available. I have had this screen fitted to my T80 for some years now and it definitely is an improvement for weather protection and it does not seem to effect performance, in fact the bike goes better with it fitted. The brackets fit under the mirror mounts and its easily removed.  The height of screen may need to be adjusted to suit the rider, I am 6 ft tall and can just see over the top, a shorter rider may need to reduce the height. I would suggest that you drill the fixing holes in screen after fitting brackets to make sure things line up. You will need to heat up the screen with a hair dryer to put the slight curve on it. You could also use a thinner 'Perspex', I used 5mm as it was available as an off cut at a local plastics supplier, but I would not go thinner than 4mm to keep rigidity.T50/T80 windscreen Dsc01115
