windshield bracket free play
« on: October 28, 2015, 01:18:37 PM »
Today I noticed freeplay while off the bike when I accidentally bumped the ws. Not noticing anything unusual while roding. Recently installed Madstad brackets and a Wunderlicht wing so I am concerned aboit addrd stress. oem ws.there is about inch and a qtr total play. Is that normal?

Nothing worse than having your balls go missing.

If I grab the top and bottom of the screen and try to tilt it back towards the rider I have some play....bout a quarter of an inch or so.

Nevermind... On closer inspection I noticed the left adjuster knob for the Madstad is missing. That's where most of the play is coming from.

Damn. Replacement knob is only 8.48 but shipping is $20.00. I believe I will make do with an allen head bolt and a washer.
