Jan. 27th, 2023 08:59 amI got a bunch of the stuff I ordered from China in the mail yesterday.
All of them required some modification to get them to fit, though one was perfect and the bike needed to be modified a bit (there was a molding flash on the kickstand I had to file off).
The windscreen bracket does not fit at all. I have started correspondence with the seller about it and given them a photo. However I suspect this will just be $120 wasted. If they don't have a replacement bracket (probably not) I may try to fabricate one. There is no way I'm shipping it back. Not sure if they would offer a refund without that.
Making a new bracket would take a few hours probably. I'm not sure I'm crazy about their mounting system anyway, doesn't seem sturdy enough, though the windscreen itself is impressively stout and well made.
Anyway I made a video about installing the other stuff. I'm getting more familiar with my video editing, though I'm doing baby stuff with it at this point. I'm not trying to make any money off my videos so there's no particular urge to make the videos nice.
