Quick-Release Adjustable Windshield
Yamaha FZ-10
STEP 1: Remove front factory
plastic panels
Remove the four screws in front
holding on two Yamaha fairing
panels as shown at right. You will
not need either of these panels, but
save the screws because they will be
used to install the MadStad
mounting plates.
STEP 2: Replace the factory
side grommets
On the left and right side there is a
rubber grommet installed in the fairing
as shown by the white arrow at right.
This grommet must be removed and
replaced with the rubber well nuts
provided (one on each side). The
MadStad well nuts simply push in
from the front, and they will swell up
and fit snugly once screws are inserted
later on.
STEP 3: Attach the
MadStad mounting
plates
Using the four front factory
screws you removed in Step
1, attach the MadStad
mounting plates to the front
of the bike as shown at
right.
STEP 4: Attach side screws
On each side where you inserted a
rubber well nut, you can now fasten
down the mounting plates with the M6
x 16 button socket screw and plastic
washer provided. See photo at right.
Keep the plate pressed gently down to
make sure the rubber well nut stays
seated. Repeat on the other side.
STEP 5: Attach the MadStad
brackets.
Each MadStad bracket slides onto the
silver spools sticking out sideways from
the MadStad mounting plates. These
photos show the right side of the bike,
with the front of the bike to the right. The
sequence is as follows:
1. Slide the bottom slot of the MadStad
bracket onto the lower side spool (see
photo at right).
2. Rotate the bracket toward the back of
the bike so that the curved slot slides onto
the upper spool (see photo at left). Make
sure it seats all the way back.
3. Lift and rotate the locking key by its
bent tab over and onto the upper spool as
seen below. Make sure it presses down
and snaps in place.
Repeat the process for the left side and
lock that bracket into place as well
with the locking key.
STEP 6: Crossbar Installation
The crossbar gets installed between the two
brackets at the slightly extended holes up
by the adjustment knobs. There is a pin on
one side of the crossbar that must be placed
outside of the brackets to keep it from
rotating. Please refer to the diagram at
bottom right. With the crossbar between the
brackets and pin located as shown, use
the short M6 x 12 screws with flat
washers to fasten from the outside of the
brackets.
STEP 5: Windshield Installation
The windshield attaches to the
front of the brackets with the
Phillips truss screws, plastic flat
washers and rubber washers
provided. Prepare the shield first
by inserting a truss screw with
plastic flat washer into a
windshield hole, the slide the
other rubber washer onto the back
(see diagram at right). Repeat this with all four screws before attempting to
attach the windshield. Then lay the shield over the brackets and insert the four
screws into the four rubber well nuts on the MadStad brackets. The well nuts are
flexible and shield holes are oversized so you can nudge the shield around to
align the screws with the holes properly. Tighten only until the well nuts begin to
swell up and the shield is snug against the brackets. Over-tightening can damage
the well nuts.
Adjusting the MadStad Brackets
The knob screws release the brackets allowing the windshield to slide and tilt. These
knob screws must always be tightened securely before riding. DO NOT attempt to
adjust the brackets while riding! You must come to a complete stop before making
adjustments. Also make sure that you do not set the windshield in such a way that
causes your handlebars or hand guards (if installed) to hit the windshield when
turning, or before reaching full lock.
To make adjustments, loosen the knobs 1-2 turns and set the windshield so the
top edge is at about your chin level as you look straight ahead while seated on
the bike. Set the angle at approximately 60 degrees. (Use the angle guide on the
back page of this manual as a guide.) Tighten the knobs and go for a ride to see
if you now have smooth airflow over and around your helmet. Do this on a
calm day if at all possible; windy days make it hard to judge the airflow. Don’t
ever try to adjust the mount while in motion!
To try a different windshield position, bring the motorcycle to a complete stop
and out of traffic. Loosen the two knob screws and tilt the windshield forward
or back 2-3 degrees or so, and/or adjust it up or down if necessary. Re-tighten
the knobs and go for another ride. Continue experimenting with different
positions at different speeds until you find a combination of height and rake
angle that eliminates buffeting and gives a smoother ride.
Releasing the MadStad System
The brackets and windshield can be removed as one unit from the mounting
base. Simply lift and rotate the locking keys down off of the top mounting
spools, then tilt the shield/brackets assembly forward and lift off of the bike.
Use the crossbar as a grip if you don’t have anything attached there. Re-attach
by doing the reverse.
