When bike run the vibration will cause wear damage if there's contact. My friend had to change his punctured radiator due to cover. I make sure all my cover had a proper gap due to his advice. So far so good.
Hi, here are some better pictures of the Radiator Screen on the 2013 CB.
I bought two, one for each bike, and like I said before, the one I bought for the 2013 fit much better and needed no help staying even and having a nice gap between the screen and radiator. The one on the 2017 looks almost identical, but it did not fit as snug. I noticed the one seller's had a better crimp on each end to 'grab' the radiator. It also did not need zip ties to hold it flat. I may just buy another one for the 2017 that holds better.
NOTE, the cool CB1100 cut into the screen.

PS...It does work well, have remove many bugs from the screen. Also the roads in Texas always seem to have tiny rocks or gravel. One dinged my front fender, but no harm to my radiator!
