Should decide for yourself, that way you can't blame us :neen:

As far as I'm concerned a Madstad is a better investment than trying a load of different screens (and I have a few screens.)

I can't find anything wrong with my Slipscreen from Wales and at less than £39 inc postage I'm well happy.

having only tried the givi and factory standard screen, I can't comment on the other screens. But the givi is a great improvement over the standard and can regulary be spotted on ebay cheap
I'm sane, honestly. . . I got a certificate to prove it!

When I had my Vee I tried a Givi (better, not perfect), a Puig (significantly worse in any position) and a 'tall' MRA (99% perfect). I then flogged the Givi and Puig for more than I paid for them on ebay ! There are so many variables you just have to take a chance. I had the tall touring seat (+20mm on a Vee +40mm on a Wee) which also alters the effectiveness of the fairing. Best of luck   :thumb:
It's pronounced 'twenty-one-twelve'

I've been using the tall MRA vario with the madstrad. much much better than the standard for me but tried the givi for the first time today and I think its even better!
