Hi Dirk and everyone

Is your article the same as the one that appears at:

http://www-rnks.informatik.tu-cottbus.de/~fsch/mopped/deutsch/Scheibe.jpg

If it is not the same I would be interested in seeing the scan of your article.

My RD07 is fitted with a German screen with the following markings:

Herst.: MRA    Typ: WVM    Ausfuhrung: 02292    Typz:  KBA 90512

It is 49 cm high and and a single curve, i.e. no 'flip' to the top.   I am
188cm high and at motorway speeds, 120 Kmh+, the wind strikes me straight in
the face which is very tiring.

Do you know if the 'double windshield' or any other windshields
(higher/lower/flip tip) would help me?

Regards Richard
