I'm sure. Looks straight up solid. Thumbs Up
Well, now I'm sort of glad that my Marlin deal fell through. Taking a closer look, it appears that the Marlin has a different mount than the Classic/Piranha. I'd only want a Marlin if I could swap it out with the other screens on the same mount.

I've emailed Dart a few times to confirm this, but haven't gotten a reply. Does anyone here know if a Marlin screen would fit onto the same bracket as the Classic?

I had the Marlin. They supplied a separate bracket, hence in the recent past my remark about exposed headlamp wiring cluster. Not sure if the bracket is the same as for the Classic. Nevertheless, the issue is resolvable. Overall though, the Marlin flexes a bit and therefore may exhibit some resonant buzzing for some riders, depending on installation.
