Also interested!
Email sent to BD. I'll report back with their reply as to fit
on 2012+ machines.
The good news is BD is working on it.
From BD: We unfortunately do not offer a a Squadron that will
fit on your bike. We are trying to produce a Squadorn that will
work on that model. The main issue is clearing the Speedometer
unit, thanks – Christian
Over on ADVRider when I asked the same question about lighting
options a fellow, not too far from me actually, mounted a
Squadron XL using a 2012 500EXC mask and creative bracket
making.

Moto Minded, motominded.com, sells lighting kits using Baja
Designs lights. They also have other accessories for the 690
Enduro. Here's the link to the Squadron XL kit:

Per their web site, the motominded folks above are using 3-D
printers to make up a lot of the stuff they sell. Amazing how
this new technology is getting into the everyday world. Good
for us, gives a small shop a chance to bring products to market
in a much shorter time and cost than traditional molds, etc
I have air filters being shipped from Australia and tank bolts
from Serbia - the world is getting to be a very small place!
So very cool - I guess at 59 years old I am showing my age~

I remember seeing a comment about the strength of the brackets
that Motominded make for their light kits, which are 3D printed.
I'm not sure which plastic they are using. I know they aren't
3D printing them in metal. That equipment costs $100K+. I have
a friend who does 3D printing, among other things for a living,
and he explained the differences in plastics available for
printing, and how you can "orient" the grain of the part for
strength. Neat stuff.

I have the Motominded Squadron Pro (not XL) mounted on my 2009
690. Fit great. They install the light assembly in the bracket
and do a neat job on the wiring. It's very easy to mount and
fits perfectly. I had them install the Skene dimmer on it too.
Now on low beam it is pretty non-obnoxious, but when I switch to
high beam I worry about starting brush fires with the thing.
