Welcome Mike,

This site can be a bit intimidating to search but if you try first searching just the technical or project sections there should be good info. I've seen people submit full step by step instructions with color pictures here but they might take 20 minutes to find.

Yes, Faco's instructions are laughable, even if you read Italian. I picture some sweating guy turning the crank on a 50's era mimeograph machine making copies of a 30 year old original.

Either do a search or fake it. It's not that tough, just think about how the expansion nuts work and which direction you don't want them to pull out and you might figure it out.

I just installed my faco mid the other day. I agree. The instructions aren't very helpful. However, between the crude drawings in the instructions and the pictures of faco windshields installed on scooters in the gallery section of this website, I was able to figure it out.

If you can't get it installed, PM me and I'll give you my phone number and walk you thru (it doesn't take more than 20 mins)...
