It looks like it could be that same as the one on the bike on the right of the picture but with the sides trimmed off (which looks like the ones in your first link). The shape of the "vent" above the headlight looks the same.
Acrylic is pretty easy to work with so have a look at screens on other bikes with a view to trimming to fit.
Don't mount it too solidly though; you want it to break away when your face hits it when you crash. Maybe the plastic number-plate-type bolts would do the trick.
Post some pickies when you get sorted.

Those guys are charging crazy money.. especially the one for 200 notes !
Buy a piece of perspex (acrylic) off ebay for about £15 and with a heat lamp, slowly mould it into shape. Drill some holes and bob's your wobbley nob''
Upto you how far you go with support arms etc.
If that's too much like hardwork, buy a Universal "SPITFIRE" screen made my Fabrini. About £50-60.

Unfortunately none of these are going to look very good on the DRZ (why do all these custom windshields look so terrible?!), but I may have to make do with the spitifre. Still, the 24inch one for $200 is a tad tempting. But I'd be looking at around £150 once shipping is included.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
