Mesh Source for Mesh Mod

[dayvidgallagher]

Hey all

So this winter I plan on doing the mesh mod and found out that a site I frequently use for work is a great source for better options than just gutter guard.

Thats the one I like the most, I prefer the finer mesh but I am a bit concerned about getting enough heat ventilation.

What do you guys think. That site literally has every possible mesh size and material.

i wasnt able to see the pic (maybe its my work computer). i wouldnt count on the mesh being a winter project for you... more like a couple of hours at most!

but lemme see that mesh option!

I can't see a picture either?

I wasn't able to see the pic, but I searched the site for mesh, and every style of mesh they have is like 60$. I'm sure gutter mesh from like Home Depot or something is like 2$ a sheet. Why would you spend so much money on the mesh from this site? Granted, they do have some cool designs, but still not worth IMHO.

Whatever, to each his own I guess.

I'm not into the mesh, but whatever works for you, go for it

The downside to the mesh, is that you can't get to anything behind the plastics without removing the plastics. Like the idle adjust knob on the carbs.

i had to disassemble the whole thing just to get my frame sliders on because of the mesh. then again, i think its worth it because the holes look so...plain now i guess.

i dont mind takin off the plasics, normally when i do that it just gives me more ensintive to do somthing else to it since i got them off haha

I used this http://www.customcargrills.com/ for my mesh mod and the holes are still big enough that I can slip this one screw driver I have in there and adjust the idle screw. The I just used some Cold Weld from Canadian Tire
I haven't had any ventilation issues and I even did a long haul ride through the mountains
