r_blake_lawson Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Guys / Girls, I've just been given a screen that a friend had on his Intruder, but the simpleton sold the bike with the brackets! He's now travelling the world and I'm left wondering how to attach said screen to my 04 XVS650 Dragstar Classic. It has Renegade Styling on a small sticker on the glass but other than that I know nothing about it. It’s your standard cruiser style big windshield and only has two holes on plates pointing backwards on either side. Is there a universal fitting fit you can buy or should I cut my losses and just buy a whole new screen? ANY help would be welcome guys / girls – Planning on doing more long distance riding and the screen sure would help!! Thanks, Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ttaskmaster Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 You should be able to find a fitting kit. Possibly not just the kit by itself, unless you get one of eBay or something. If it doesn't fit as is, then with careful drilling (use masking tape to help prevent cracking and splintering) you should be able to make it fit. Do check prices of parts first, though. It may be more cost-effective to just get a whole new set-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r_blake_lawson Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 Thanks for getting back to me. My first posting so your help is really appreciated! I don’t seem to be able to find a fitting kit anywhere though! And as there is only a short plate with two wholes coming out the back of the screen I wouldn’t know where I could drill and screw it to..?
