any recomended flyscreens for a Cadwell?
I was thinking an Airblade Tall Boy might be good or perhaps a Puig screen but not sure which & if either would fit
I am not impressed with the look / size of the many small £20ish screens on ebay

I would be very surprised if this scooter screen would fit the Cadwell - but who knows it might & look..........?

Welcome, Roy.
There are very few owners of modern AJS who use this website as you will see from the infrequent posts in this forum.
Most of us have British AJS and Matchless bikes that are 50 to 100 years old so we usually have to modify aftermarket accessories to make them fit.
It's unlikely that your post will be read by an owner of a modern AJS who has fitted a flyscreen so maybe you'll have more help by calling AJS themselves or from one of the many websites specifically for owners of modern Chinese machines.
As well as a 70 yr old British bike I have a Chinese one and know what you mean about the variable quality of Chinese parts when buying 'unseen' or without a recommendation.

My friends father has a Cadwell sport and has fitted a National Cycle Fly screen which looks very smart

Hi Roy
there is a facebook group for cadwell and tempest/scrambler models many of whom have customised their modern AJS bikes.
You may well get some helpful input on there.

thanks for the replies gents, I have bought an Airblade screen & hope it will work....
after some 45 years of riding all year round on European & Japanesse bikes I bought the Cadwell for occasional limited mileage fun, my days of 'serious' riding are gone
