MRA Vario fitting

Post by jdm »

I fitted the screen to my 2011 bike and am not happy with the fitting. The bars on the bike taper in circumference from the inside to the outside. Thicker on the inside, if you know what I mean. After a few rides, the handlebar fittings seem to loosen and need tightening. The fitting on the bars just doesnt look 100%. I have followed the instructions to the letter.

Cheers

I wrapped a few turns of rubber electrical tape (sometimes known as self amalgamating tape) around the bars under the clamps. Worked a treat.

I've now perfected the mount by taking it of the bike and fitting the BMW touring screen instead :twisted:
