Sure,, Pete,
It was very quick and easy,,, some would say dirty,,, and it started out as just an experiment. But it worked so well, that I rode it like that for a couple of months. I am throwing down a disclaimer right now,,, as I trust myself to test things like this,,, but I can't take any responsibility for what others might try to do. I did not use any other hardware at all except a pair of small fender washers. First of all, my oem electric windshield is in the upper mounting position. I removed the lower fixing bolts,,, the ones that engage the slot with the opening (I think). Then I just pivoted the shield back on the upper bolt, and replaced the lower bolts to pinch on the outside of the slotted bracket, using a thin flat fender washer. This has to be done carefully,,, and to back it up, I applied a pair of nylon quick ties per side. Then I put the plastic trims back in place. It is hard to describe verbally,, so I will try to get a picture up, however I think one other owner did about the same thing, on one of the very first posts in this thread (without the quick ties),,, and he included a photo or two. Notes,,, I have not driven this at 100mph,,, but have put nearly 3300kms on it. Also,,, you have to watch for slight binding against the dash panel when in the lowest position, which I never use. I was going to install a CB shield,,, but have switched the plan to a Clearview +2h/+4w, I think it is, and am adding a pair of mirror deflectors. So its hard to say if I will keep the raked setup in future or not. If I was keeping my scratched up stock shield,,, I would definitely keep it raked. I will get all this new stuff installed during the winter months,,, but won't test it till spring. Hope this is clear enough to be helpful,,,, Cat'
