Well bummer. Just met the seller of my potential new Marlin. Turns out he really didn’t know what he had. It was a classic screen. Oh well, I’ll stick with what I’ve got.

Hopefully you rode there so it wouldn't be a total loss.

Final reference pic of the Classic screen on the CB. I'm happy to leave it on this bike until summer.

Gin60: I believe the Dart Classic looks great on your CB1100, possibly better than the Dart Marlin and the Classic likely "flutters" less in severe air currents.

No flutter whatsoever, Gold, at any speed. Not bothered that my Marlin deal fell through. Just hope my Classic vs Piranha comparison can be of some value to anyone interested.

I need to get a Dart on my bike. we could then ride together, swap bikes, and make a real nice comparison/review!

When you do, I'll have to get down south. I haven't been to Julian in quite a while!
