Not without cutting a new profile at the bottom and re-drilling the holes.
I adapted one and fitted it to my gen 1 but not a straightforward swap.

If you don't mind my asking, why did you go to the trouble of doing it?

Because I liked the look of the gen2 touring screen and as it turned out, it was by far one of the most effective for me. I say for me as there are so many variables, riders height being the most relevant.
I'll trawl through my photos and see if I can find one of it fitted.

thanks for the input and conformation.
I had that idea too, but it seems out of my league
