This is What I Have
I do not have a photo of the clips with plate nuts on the fork. If needed and nobody else posts them I'll go to the hangar remove the fairing and photograph them. However, basically you just have to bend the brackets, mount them (I think I drilled and tapped the forks for #8 screws - maybe #6), measure the location where you want the center of the platenuts from some horizontal and vertical plane,(one on each inverted "hat" bracket "wing"), mark them, position the fairing (accurately), determine where the holes have to go to hit the platenut locations, remove the fairing, drill the holes in the fairing, wash the marking off of the clips (blue sharpie comes off nicely with alcohol), reinstall the fairing (accurately), mark the actual location for the platenut center holes on the clip wings, remove the fairing, mark all of the clips so you can get them back in the exact same location & orientation, remove the clips, drill #30 holes in each plate nut center location, cleco the #8 (8/32) platenuts to the outside of the clips, drill a #40 hole in one of the platenut mounting clip wings using a platenut mounting hole as a drill guide, cleco that hole, drill the other mounting hole, repeat this methodical process for all of the platenuts, countersink the outside surface of the clips for flat head #3 rivets even though the clips are too thin for normal countersinking this is not a structural application (you should have done this many times already elswhere), drill out the center hole on the clip platenut locations to 3/16" (so the fairing installation screws will easily pass through the clips to the threads of the platenuts), rivet the platenuts in place, reinstall the plate nut clips in the final location & orientation, countersink the mounting holes in the fairing for #8 flathead screws, install the fairing with 8 each 8/32 flathead screws and dimple washers. To remove the fairing the nosecap screws and the eight mounting screws have to be removed but the axle/wheel/bearings/fork/etc. remain untouched. Note in the photo I have no towbar holes or (cringe) valve stem holes but if you don't care about drag, drill away.
