Best bet is to root about under 'Screens' in the 'Oily rag' section, IBO. Think you'll find more information and opinion on screens, wind buffeting etc than you can deal with!  :thumb:

Most go for the givi screen or the mra with or without a madstad bracket. I have the givi and a madstad and it cured the headblast for me. I'm 6ft 3". :thumb:

I had the short MRA Vario screen and Madstad bracket on my bike, I should have done that from day one!

If you live near Warwick or you can get to here, I have a tall MRA Vario and a Givi barn door you can try. Just send me a PM if you want to arrange this (and anyone else that wants to.) I'm looking for someone near with a sports screen I can borrow for a week to try with the Madstad.
