I'll get you some when I finish mounting it. Hot and tired last night.
What I'm not liking is it's a one size fits all kind of thing. So my 32" door has a 40"ish screen. Lenght isn't such a big deal as you "hem" it. But just having it sort of up last evening, I had no mosquito's in TAZ.
Did I tell you I'm keeping the DRZ?

Using the "new" additions!
The magnetic screen while fit isn't great, works well.
The roof vent fan works great.
Combined is excellent.
I also have a tongue mount for my propane tank. But I do not have it "plumbed". So while I'm able to mount it to haul, I have to unmount it to use.
Work camping again!

Pics? What do you not like? I was thinking about getting one?

I have one of those "magic" screens affixed to my RV door. The distance between each pair of closing magnets at the closing seam is about 12". Consequently, there is about an 1/16" gap between the two halves of the screen midway between each set of magnets. That gap allows mosquitos to enter through the openings. It works good for flies but not so good if the mosquitos are heavy.

Either burn a Citronella candle or rub it along the opening seams. Can't hurt and may help.

How come your awning arms are not all the way out?

It's arrived a week ago, to tall to ride untill lowered. I'm just taking my time putting it together, personalizing. Im adding, all lights for street riding. I have started it, love it!
Has some shipping damage, most I can live with. Except for the expansion chamber dent and gouge.

Cannot wait to see pics. Does the MSO or Title just say "Motorcycle" and not "offroad use only" such that you can get a tag for it at the DMV?

I posted on your thread last night.
Yes, got my title Saturday. Transfered the DRZ plate when I applied for the title. It's very easy to meet Michigan road requirements. Probably easier than what im doing.
I'm going to call around Tuesday and see if Enduro Engineering KTM low seat will fit. I've removed all shock preload and I'm still 1.5 inches to short.

First ride other than my short test ride. Tried going down some seasonal roads. Recent storms caused numerous limbs down. Made my way past those...Image
