Ah! Would have saved me a lot of messing about making my own solution!

Where are these sourced?

Link on the video was for an ebay item, which isn't listed any longer. A quick google leads to here:

Sorted the linky ......... ;)
It baffles me given the size of Suzuki that they cannot get the screen thing right. I've ended up with (after various iterations) a madstad bracket and MRA screen. A huge improvement on standard.
Iterations include:
  • std screen packed out with washers
  • cut down screen
  • std screen with palmer bracket

Neither Flea Bay or Amazon list these any longer.

However, did find a Polish site which lists some interesting items at extremely good prices.
Sadly not in stock at present, but have sent an email to ask when/if they will be in stock again...

I know I might be digging out a bit but if you still look for adjustable windscreen mount, I have bought mine here:

I am using stock screen.

I have a Palmer screen bracket. Fits my 2016 650 ...... so 2012 to 2016 model fitment.

Which I will place in the for sale section shortly. But if you wish to message me now that would be fine  :)

Got the palmer bracket on my 2014 DL1000 ABS with the Givi taller screen, works well

Madstad is another brand of screen mount, imported from the USA by Bike HPS.

I had one on my K6 Wee.
A nice piece of kit, more ardjustable than the Palmer Products bracket that I currently have fitted to my Varadero.

   If anyone is interested,I have a Madstad screen adjuster for sale that I had on my K9 Wee as it will not fit the L2 I now have.I will look at sensible offers, and would prefer it is picked up if possible.From DE7 area.
