not sure what you mean. Windvest has two brackets that mount to the handlebar and then to the shield.

First of all.. congrats on the great bike (this is the same as mine way back when it was stock!)
It looks amazing.

I got the QD with fork clamps, but my issue (with many others) was head buffeting from underneath, now I rarely ride with the shield, only for long days (above 600Km/400Miles days) so I don't care for the looks. what I did is I attached two pieces of plexiglass I did buy from Home Depot to the bottom, check my thread here
