These brackets are excellent quality and fit , and also give you a better choice of windscreens as most screen designed to be fitted to a conventional headlamp with a two bolt pivot fixing can be used.
I already had a Givi A210 on another bike which I trial fitted to the Hima and it works well on the Hima too.
It is around 60 mm wider and 90 mm higher with a more pronounced flip so much less wind, noise and turbulence.
Looks OK too, but I am too old and dumb to post photos--!

Hello everyone, it's been a while!

I was asked for the instrument panel bracket I did a few years ago. Unfortunately, they were all sold, so I decided to make a new batch and update the design to fit the 2020 model as well. In addition, I also designed the headlight bracket (see CAD drawings).

Time for a stupid question. What is the purported of the headlight bracket? Is it just a better quality bracket, or is it to be used to install an aftermarket headlamp.

The brackets look great!
Thanks.

The instrument brackets are used to support the instruments when the tank racks are removed.
But the racks also support the headlight and the screen, so a couple of proprietary headlamp brackets are required to support the headlight , and not all work or look as well as they might.
And the good ones are expensive.
Hence the professional looking headlamp bracket which looks OEM quality,
That only leaves the screen , all that is needed is a couple of Y brackets with a couple of holes for the screen fixings at the top and a slot on the bottom to fit over the headlight bolts.
And perhaps a few spacers--!

 

[Curt Meinecke]

And removing the tank racks is done to create a different/custom look? Any other benefit?

 

[Roy Gavin]

Maybe a slight reduction in wind noise, but I replaced the faring at the same time so how much of the reduction is the screen and how much the rack is not clear.
Also reduces the gap between the screen and the rider if you fit the existing screen to the new headlight brackets, and that usually helps with turbulence./ noise too.

Well, i’ve ordered and paid for my set of Instrument panel and headlight brackets ...
Connor has written the software (solidworks) for the mounting brackets for the original and small Hitchcock's screens, the files are available as DFX , STL etc for a nominal charge ... or just buy the brackets off him ..£10 / set ... It’s so much simpler.
The plan is to do a strip and fit video for YouTube which will include the installation of the screen brackets ...
The GPS mount will be removed as this is the UK ... getting lost is not an option ...

Looks very nice!

 

[Landsurfer74]

Has anyone got any photos of other mods to remove the fuel tank frames ... I’m sure i’ve seen a similar conversion by one of the Cousins ... but can’t seem to find it on here ?

I'm techno challenged so bare with me, but does this allow the headlight to follow were the front wheel is pointed?

Yes it does, the headlamp is mounted to the lower triple clamp.

Interesting result. Excel rims, tail tidy, different seats, plus all other mods … looks like he has gone for the DEUS look on what they do to an SR 500/ SR400. Or has he?
