The similar Puig Racing Windscreen is about 1/3 the cost of the BMW product

Mine gets a bit buzzy around 5000rpm but it's not an issue because I don't spend that much time at those revs in any gear, I'm either cruising below 5000 or accelerating through it. My buzzing is through the seat rather than the bars.

The Puig Racing screen...isn't it about 3" shorter than the stock screen?

I hate the look of touring windscreens on the RS. It takes away from the sporty, sleek profile of the bike. With that being said, I roll with a Puig touring screen in the UPPER position. I don't do it for the wind protection nor the decibel reduction - and I obviously don't do it for the looks because it's butt-ugly. I roll with this ugly barndoor windscreen because I'd rather have the bugs splat on the windscreen than my helmet visor. It's less of an issue in urban areas, but my commute takes me through rural farm land.

I know that I'm not alone in finding that raising screen height isn't always the answer to turbulence or buffeting even though it might seem an obvious way ahead.

I've very long bodied. I sit tall on the bike. A standard height screen in the lowest position works just perfectly. Any higher and it becomes a problem.
