I managed to fit Acerbis handquards on my 2006 Dakar using the standard screen!!  :biggrin:

Here goes:
1.  fit handle bar raisers
2.  remove bar end weights
3.  raise the standard screen by installing 3 rubber tap washers at the top 2 screen holding screws and 2 rubber tap washers at the bottom 2 screen holding screws.
4.  fit the Acerbis handguards.
5.  tilt the handle bars slight forward
6.  tilt the mirror brackets/switches slightly backwards.

This conversion cost me about R230!!  :mwink:  2nd hand handguards = R200.  Handle bar raisers = free.  Rubber tap washers and longer bolts = approx. R30
