Looking for a windshield for my 2012 roadster.

I do still need the "front end fixing kit". These are the 4 brackets that mount on the forks.
Are they in good shape? Can I assume you're willing to sell them? How much?
I can still buy these new from triumph.
What I really need are the brackets that actually mounts to the plastic wind screen and the front fixing kit. To get it I'll buy the roadster windshield. I just can't find it.

Hello,
This is part vent and part question.
Am I the only one having difficulty finding the roadster wind screen? P/N A9748036. I've placed orders online for this and the front end fixing kit from Hermys Triumph E store and after a week they canceled it saying these parts has been discontinued. I've contacted 2wheepros and crosscountrycycle. They said these are on back order and there's no telling for how long. I've contacted triumph motorcycle after sales and after a few emails they said...
"Unfortunately there is no newer version. The factory has simply stopped having them produced. I am sure you could find them on ebay or similar sites but they are no longer available through Triumph.
-Brad"
eBay has none.
I call my local dealership and they don't have any and they had no idea when or if they would be in. They did look these parts up and gave me a place in GA, FL, & AZ. I called but had no luck.
Are these still for sale?????
So, I went to Triumph motorcycle and clicked on a 2018 rocket 3 roadster and clicked configure. There she is Roadster screen, P/N A9748036.

Now, I can buy the front end fixing kit for $90 from triumph but no windshield. What the heck is going on?????
I'm so confused. any insight would be appreciated.

How many do you want? @Mitzzy and I both usually have some spares with screens. Surprisingly postage to USA is based on weight not volume so the screen would not cost much more to post than just the brackets and fixing kit but price would be with screen as hard to get rid of a bunch of screens without brackets as you have discovered.

The offer from @albertaduke will be a great one though, especially if you can recover your old screen hardware or acquire used.

I can sell you a screen, brackets, hardware and fork fixing kit for Au$375 + AU$90 postage or without the screen for Au$375 +Au$75 postage.

Used hardware and fixing kit without screen Australian $375 (=US$285) plus postage Au$75 (US$57) = Au$450 (US$342) all up.
Postage rate is Standard Intl Air with Tracking, expected delivery in 10 business days - mostly in USA).
Au$450 insurance cover is Au$19.60 if you want it. So AU$470 (US$357) ALL UP.
Postage calculator & delivery times - Australia Post

This is same price as with screen as there are no buyers for screens without hardware but postage is slightly less. It is a pain in the bum dismantling and packing the items so they do not get damaged in transit and takes hours.
When you get it you will think I sent you a really thick 30" long boomerang in whiskey bottle tubes as that is what I did last time for @Landstar


Paypal account is pwhite60@iinet.net

Please pay via Paypal as a 'send funds to friends and relatives' in Australian dollars via Paypal so no currency conversion fees for me.
If you send it as a 'payment for goods services' please add 4% but I still require in Aussie dollars.

When you order your Clearview make sure it is the 5 hole horizontal strap 'Roadster' version. The Clearview one I have is a stock full 'Roadster' size screen but with just 3 holes as the previous owner obviously had the slightly smaller now discontinued 'Summer' screen with just a 3 hole horizontal strap. No problem holding larger screen with extensions etc at 120mph as per my pic below from klast years Oz RDU at Nyngan.
