    To me, it looks like the mount uses the factory turn signal location to hold the frame. Probably uses a relocation bracket (that I dont see there) for the front turn signals also. It also looks like it uses 2 windshield bolts for the top, and something I can't quite make out for the bottom. 4 point on the fairing, 2 points on the bike.

    My guess anyway

        I just hope the iron in the background ISN'T ready to "clean" the windshield in the photo!!!

          Hi Pete,

          It attaches like this..

          Basically it attaches to the same two screws on the front of the bottom yoke that the Sport indicators bolt to.

            Hey Shapps,
            Thanx for the pic and reply,
            but i still cant figure out how it attaches,
            nothing lines up, not sure if im missing any pieces or not.
            The indicaters on mine are attached to the side of the bottom yoke,
            this bracket doesnt come close to that.
            Need a pic to see how its mounted, any1 got 1?

                mounting

                1, the frame in the diagram needs to spin around.
                2, the bottom holes pick up the bolts beside front blinker mounts on the bottom of triple tree
                3, the 'ears' will pick up the headlight pivot bolts & the two small ears on top of the frame hold the fairing at the base of the screen
                4, there is also a small mount at the base of the fairing itself that a small home made bracket also attached to the bolts at the bottom mount bolts will stabilise the whole show hope this helps, -----PS---- make sure you don't tighten the screen bolts down far, cause it will crack before you know it

                      Pics were great, thanx again Ozlad,
                      Thanx for all the replys, got it all fitted up.

                      I had a chrome cover covering the front of the bottom yoke,
                      so had to pull the forks out to get it fitted.
