I fitted a MRA X-creen in April, fitted the Aprilia mirrors and whilst wearing my Shark Evoline II it was fantastic.  Did 9500 miles like this with zero buffeting, 10% wind noise and minimal wind effect.

A couple of weeks ago I treated myself to a new Shark vision-r gt carbon helmet. According to the statistics it has significantly lower noise than my old helmet. I tried it whilst riding my Trike and I was a little worried just how quiet it was. But when I tried to ride the Strom with it on the noise was unbearable.  I rode 100 miles in agony. On the way back I played about with the angle of the smaller screen and significantly improved wind noise.  

So my point is that although you can get people's opinions of various screens, even the the slightest change in setup can drastically alter it's effectiveness.

I solved all of my problems with Givi AIrflow. I'm 6ft2.5.
Givi AIrflow is my 4th screen but I'm more then hapy now. Previous screens were OEM, MRA Touring Vario, Puig Tall.
If you ever get Givi AIrflow, keep in mind that for our hights Givi Airflow works the best not on the highest setting. You have to play a bit with the hight as it works by producing "invisible" screen at the front of you by compressing the air in the "box" between two screens and the shooting it verticaly. The lower the screen goes, the higher the pressure for creating "invisible" screen.
That is the reason I have mine working the best mounted at top holes and then adjusted to mid hight settings.
