Oh...are there bigger holes in the fairing stay/support? Sometimes you put the well nuts into the fairing stay and run the bolts thru the fairing and the windshield.

In the pics it looked like you had the well nuts thru the fairing and the windshield. Anyway,looks good!!

When I took off the old windscreen the rubber nuts were though both the windscreen and the fairing. All but one fit fine going through both. You cannot see them in the pictures...you can see the rubber washers that cover the nuts.

I just uncovered her this morning and for the first time it looks complete and finished. I still want to switch out those blue bolts...and the blue clutch cable adjuster () but as a whole I am so happy with this bike both mechanically and aesthetically.

Yep I really rode mine today since rebuilding it and I'm quite happy myself! Everyone seems to like the Jordan plastic and I LOVE white soooooo.... WIN/WIN!
