I mounted the plate to my bike and as rwthomas1 said, it took a considerable amount of bending to get it to mount up and as I got the sides in place, the center bowed up making it difficult to get the bottom bolt in. I took everything off when the brackets and shield wouldn't line up.
I had an e-mail from MADSTAD today which included the following ...
" I don't want you to think I forgot you and want to update you on what we're doing.
I had our guys make up an adapter plate, brackets, and windshield for the ST1100.
This afternoon, we are going to mock install them together to check the fit.
The bracket hole pattern in the adapter plate was from wrong software - fixed.
The shape of the adapter plate - we have to monitor. The split roller has a issue that will
take time to resolve but we'll make sure they're correct before they leave here.
Once the shield is ready, we can check the windshield hole pattern to be sure the right
software is being used.
I will let you know the results on Monday (7/19).
Thank you for your patience. Dan
Best Regards,"
So they are working on it and I'm comfortable that they will get things resolved...
