Madstad Bracket On Standard Screen?
« on: September 19, 2013, 21:41:25 »
Subject heading's probably self-explanatory but the question is - Does a Madstad bracket fit to a standard 2007 reg V-Strom 650 windscreen? Has anyone done this and does it work? If so, how tall are you? I'm 6'4"   :)

Yes it fits, the Madstad mounts are the same as the Wee and K4+ Vee. I use a standard or tinted X screen with mine. I'm 5'11 with a Vee seat on a Wee and I don't have a fat arse.

Thanks for that. Anyone know the best place to get a compatible Madstad bracket?

May not have explained properly. Can the small extension screen that sits in front and at the top of the main screen be attached to a standard DL650 Suzuki screen? If so, where can the small extension screen be obtained?

Cheers...

A madstad screen bracket replaces the black plastic mount between the fairing and the screen.
What your looking for is part of a vario screen. Someone did make one but I forgot who it was and what exactly they called it.

Givi do a vario screen that has the adjustable lip on the top but tou have to buy the whole screen with the lip.

Hi , maybe you've already sorted this out, but I'm 6'6" and have the madstad with standard screen.  I mounted madstad at highest possible location on the bolt hole options and tilted screen back to about a 60Deg angle.  Works a treat for me.
