[QUOTE="bgross, post: 1154601, member: 21321"] Perfect! Saves me the embarrassment of trying to describe what I noticed yesterday when I removed the windscreen to replace a screw that was missing its head - and discovered another that had a broken [inserting another 'tard word] shank. It seems, to my uneducated imagination, like a pretty efficient way of securing the screen: the rubber sleeve of the 'well nut' allows for a snug-tight fit without placing stress on the acrylic shield - which would result in cracks and reduced lifespan. DAMHIK. The safety aspect may be secondary to the engineers design. Perhaps a deliberate point of failure - with no damage to the windscreen - played a part? Adding this item to the review/renew list of maintanence items. [/QUOTE]
