It doesn't fit the F850GS either, only the GSA model. I found out the hard way.

I emailed Mark and asked if they can build one for the F750 model.
Their answer was - "Of course we can, we just need to get a hold of one".
Can a 750 or 850 GSer from UK help us out please?
Cheers!!!

Will the 1250 run if the TFT screen is stolen ? I did a search but couldn't find the answer.
Oh well, maybe it was a stupid question answered many times before , or in the wrong section. Sorry for asking

Not a stupid question at all, perhaps there is no response as nobody reading this forum actually knows the answer. I don't but would like to know myself.

Just perhaps, nobody knows because nobody has experience of TFT theft ? Dare I think that this is all just scaremongering?
Sorry Mark , because I have huge respect and use one of your fab screen products.
If there really is need, then your products will be the best solution for sure .

750GGS dropped in with Mark today for design of the anti Theft brace for the TFT

The people who I know have had them stolen two of them rode the bikes home no indicators though.
Here is where the screen used to be.

All I can say is the fit and Finnish are great and that if my £40 saves my tft from getting nicked then I am very happy great service from mark and if you ever talk to him he will go the extra mile to help
Thanks mark
Thanks mark
Thanks for doing that! I'm certainly interested in getting one.
This brace is a fine idea and very well made. And I don't mean to be critical here.
But from watching the installation video, I can't help thinking that it only adds the removal of the 4 bolts at the sides of the brace to the theft process.

I agree with you but I don’t see where you are going with your statementThis brace is a fine idea and very well made. And I don't mean to be critical here.

Bikes are inherently nickable that’s why we use a chain and lock to either deter the thriving scum or make it harder for them
Yes 4 bolts 2 plastic wings and1 wind deflector may not deter the professional criminal but I bet he will be shitting himself when he is
Trying to rip half the front off your bike and in my opinion that would take them 5-10 mins to do
Simple answer - the bolts are probably a standard size. Plenty of companies make security bolts. I’m sure they could make you one-off bolt heads that would make it very difficult for said thief to remove? Basically the same idea as the Wunderlich wheel bolt for the 1200/1250.
My point is that the security of the brace with standard bolts is weak. I rec'n I could remove the 4 bolts in less than a minute with an Alan key. The same as a lock and chain. It's no good putting the chain through a part that you can remove in 30 seconds with a standard tool.
As Matty says, some security bolts would make it that bit harder to remove.

I have installed my brace on the F850GS today after it arrived this morning - took less than 30 mins to install and feels like a good piece of kit - I am well impressed, especially as it also works with my sat-nag mount, which sits over the TFT, still in place.
It came with Torx bolts and not Alan bolts, which make it just a bit harder to remove, for the casual tea-leaf.
