This is the puig I was interested in, but bought this one instead as it is the correct one for my scooter. More expensive, but I need it! Besides, I never got a reply from the Puig company asking them whether there's would fit my scoot.
Now for the long wait!

Looks good. I wonder how it mounts.....Be sure to hang onto the the old screen and mounts as they are sometimes highly desirable item$......

Both windscreens attach in a similar way, attached to the mirror stems by adjustable brackets.This is the one that I purchased, from a website called Motauto

Nice info....Keep in mind that the left mirror has a left-handed thread; as I recall one occasion where an over zealous do-it-yourselfer broke the threads off inside the 'bar' and had to extend his learning experience into the realm that few confidently tread; which BTW, I made a bracelet out of successfully extracted victims ranging from 2-64 thru 3/8" pipe, due to a job I once excepted in my yute. Never wore it much as few could appreciate the potential agony they were observing.
Though probably nearly impossible to do too; it would have been nice to be able to obtain an un-drilled shield and use the 'already there' rigid Honda mounts.
Be nice to see it upon completion, as it will present a one-of-a-kind SH view.

At risk of being rude, that's a crappy way of mounting a windshield. The SH has a perfectly good mounting system for a shield. I hope that saving a few bucks doesn't blow up in your face, literally.

While I have to admit that from an appearance point of view, it leaves a lot to be desired, the mounting system allows more adjustability than the oem does. Regarding the durability of the setup, I had a windscreen with a similar arrangement which worked very well with no problems at all. Time will tell.
