RE: Windscreens - Again! - 6

Thought I would chip in to the "what screen for a tall rider" quest. I am 5ft 8" and bit but long in the trunk and so near to a 6 footer in my seating height. I am on an 840mm seat and have bar risers. I have the Givi screen but still get wind noise from ear/eye height upwards unless I shrink myself down. I have just managed to acquire an unused but pristine MRA X-creen Touring which will go atop the Givi screen. That mirrors the successful setup I have on my F800GT (which also has a Givi screen). That should cure my problem and give me lots of adjustment and I feel the visual break is more aesthetically pleasing than a really tall screen.

Might be worth others considering rather than swapping to a whole new screen.

P.S. Come the summer I might just try the X-screen on the OE.

Hi all,
After much prevarication, I have just ordered an MRA VarioTouring screen in smoke grey.

Report will follow once acquired and fitted.

Just received my Vstream mid height light tint screen the other day. Easy installation [ even though the instructions could be a little clearer ]. Used the upper mounting holes, put the screen in the down position and took the motor out for a test.

I'm in a bubble of quiet air, the flow is moving 2-3" above my helmet and moving around my upper body. I can hear my music at 60-70mph fine, at 80, losing some clarity. That suits me fine, I usually ride no faster than 75 mph on the highways [ staying 10 over most of the time which gives a pass on tickets if a uniform happens to be in the right place at the right time ]

I'm 5'9", with 31-32 inseam. Super happy with the screen in the low position, I can see over the screen by quite a bit. In the up position, I've got perhaps 1-2" line of sight above the top of the screen. But in the lower setting, it's perfect and I think keeps the lines of the bike more pleasing.
