Hi,

I have the Touratech windshield adjuster installed on my S10 and ordered up a set of Yamaha wind deflectors to fit to the sides, went to fit the today and the Touratech adjuster bracet covers the the holes you need to fit the Yamaha deflectors.

Any ideas or solutions, does anyone else have this set up?

Just a thought does anyone have the waspworks screen adjuster and Yamaha wind deflectors? Are they compatable?

I don't have either bracket, but have the deflectors and feel they are worthwhile. My only issue with them is that they give off a LOT of sun flare. I solved that by painting them satin black.

Yep, I have the Wasp adjuster and the deflector kit, as Wasp points out above, they fit together.

Paul, did you do any special prep to paint? Dd you paint one side or both?

Pictures?

Thanks, Rod

Odd, I have the Touratech adjuster and the winglets and have absolutely no issues with mine whatsoever.



That is the only picture I have right now. I am at work.

I'll get some others after I get off shift. I have had mine in a variety of hard mount positions; low, medium, and high with all angles as well and not had any interference issues. My winglets were on prior to me installing the Touratech bracket so I should have experienced it right off the bat one would think.

I've got the same setup - no problems at all ( I'm verry happy with my bracket, wind deflectors together with a MRA-Vario screen )

This isn't related to the windshield bracet, but when I installed the sw-motech gps holder I had to enlarge the hole slightly on the wings for the gps holder bolt could fit through. Is that what your referring to?

I think I may need to remove the touratech bracket first, fit the deflectors and then re install bracket.

I have the SW-Moto GPS bracket installed and used the screw in front hole that was suppose to get a rubber plug with a screw to hold the deflector on. I just drilled out the hole a little bit to fit the screw from the GPS bracket and put it on that way. I have not had any problems with it.
