Which screen ?

Of the 2 MRA Vario screens, which one is best 1 to go for, the standard or the tall one.

Any help is much appreciated.

If you are tall, the tall one. If you are of standard height, the standard one :grin:

In reality it depends not just on overall height but body length, seat height, typical riding position etc I.e. how high your eyes are. As a very rough rule of thumb maybe if you are 6 foot plus then start to consider the tall one, but the only safe way is to try it. Nowt worse than looking through the top of a screen...  An adjustable bracket like a Madstat gives you huge flexibility here.

If I get round to it today I'll measure the height of my (tall) MRA above the tank...
Keep an open mind. But not so open that your brains fall out.

Thanks for the replies, I'm 6' 1 and ride quite upright so will probably go down the tall route.
