OK I got this pretty functional windscreen for the triple. Unfortunately it looks kind of shitty the way it's mounted. There's two routes I could go....
1. Mount it permanently like it is and make a bracket underneath so it doesn't flex as much or.....
2. Mill out the black plastic that holds the flyscreen and do some modification on the clear screen to get it to mount permanently underneath the flyscreen and still add a bracket.
Problem is I don't have the skill set or tools for either option.
Recommendations for a shop or person? Thoughts? Other options?

If you're talking about the clear screen to the white flyscreen, how about masking tape and drill out the 4 holes, then use allen bolts similar to the rest of the Triumph bolts to attach it. And use black rubber fender washers as spacers between the clear screen and flyscreen. If you're talking about the attachment to the bike then nevermind, I don't know what I'm talking about. :-/

My biggest issue is lining it all up before I drill. The mounts are all velcro right now.... And I didn't even get it centered right. It's 1/8" off and annoying to look at!
The bracket would be just a stability thing so that it doesn't flex over bumps with the added leverage.
I hear ya, it's one of those measure and drill carefully or you will screw it up royally type of jobs. You could get a couple of small c-clamps with soft jaws and an old towel to hold the two pieces together while you drill. Cover the areas to be drilled with masking tape, then measure twice .. and once more for luck, mark and drill slowly.
