Thanks for the great comments on the windshield everyone. I would be glad to make a paper template of my shield with the size and location of the holes to drill. The only thing is that, first you would have to buy someones take-off original windshield from a 2007 to current Burgman 400 scooter. That in itself wouldn't be that hard to come by, but then you would also have to buy an Isotta windshield or at least the mounting hardware for it. You would use the rubber mounting grommets from the Isotta and your original mini shields grommets to complete the installation. I used a special drill to drill the pilot holes for the grommets and then I carefully hand filed the drilled holes to the final size and location. I had the drill left over from another project. I did all the cutting of the windshield in my bandsaw to the rough outline and then sanded it down by palm sander and hand to the finish profile. It was time consuming but I am very happy with the results. It would be to expensive for most of us to purchase all the components. I just happened to have them at the time. I had to eat the cost of the Isottsa screen which I still have because I used the hardware from it. I would be glad to help anyone over the phone with the process but I don't think you would want to spend the money.
