Does anyone have a source for screen protectors for the OEM 2023 CT125 meter, instrument panel, speedometer, or what ever you want to call it. Getting my CT tomorrow, June 12. Thank you.

I have no experience with it, but BeezDeals has this for sale: https://beezdeals.com/product/motoskin-dashboard-protection-film-honda-monkey-125-ct125/
Also on Webike: https://japan.webike.net/products/24619861.html

The meter screen is the same size and shape as on the Honda Monkey and Honda Dax. It is curved so there unfortunately aren't any protectors made of glass like the good ones for phone screens, just flexible ones. I have cut 3M Scotchgard PPF (matte) to shape on other bikes, haven't done that on my Honda Trail but it's on my list to try. The OEM screen is hard to read in the sunlight, so I don't have high hopes for that not hurting the visibility more. I sanded and polished the lens on a few different motorcycle gauges several times before learning the lesson to simply not have anything attached to the ignition key that can flop around and scratch the instrument lenses. That's often been the cause. Now most of my motorcycle ignition keys that sit near the instruments are either attached to a soft PVC keychain, or they're on a carabiner or s-biner where they can be individually removed from the key ring for use.

I contacted Speedo Angel as I've used their product in the past. They don't have one specifically for the Trail. I took photos and sent dimensions and they said the one for the Monkey was about 2mm smaller in diam. Didn't seem like they were going to cut one for the Trail as it's not a model offered in England (really?).
I ordered and fitted the Monkey one. It covers enough of the speedo to satisfy my needs. I could probably have done a better job getting it centered and it likely would've perfectly followed the white line that goes around the screen. I'll try and get a pic in the light tomorrow.

I tried one off of eBay, it took months to get here from Thailand and it was trash. It was already scratched, terrible fitment and cut too. Until Speedo-Angles or another well known company in that arena comes out with a CT125 specific model I'll simply hold off.

I sent pics and took dimensions with a caliper per their email but they didn't seem inclined to make one for the Trail. 🤷🏻‍♂️
