Stu Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 I have a spoiler and it works great you can pick them up off ebay and amazon for cheap 2 Quote
Tricky Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 MRA make really nice screens. Not sure if they do one for your bike 1 Quote
Steve_M Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) I had an MRA screen with the wing device on my Tiger which proved to be most effective, and I would recommend.  Edit. See photo attached from rider’s / pillion point of view) Edited May 14, 2021 by Steve_M 1 Quote

Gripping hard with the knees can reduce the need to hold on so hard for so long, then I found that holding on to the Speedtriple at over *** MPH for any length of time was a pain in the neck & shoulders, extra upper body & neck work seemed to alleviate it ( plus 6 points on my license ) 2 Quote

onesea Posted May 15, 2021 Posted May 15, 2021 I had this issue on my FZ6 wait till it gets cold and you really feel it on long run. The wind deflector or spoiler mentioned above are a worthy start. You may find that is enough, you might not.  I have one like this on my trophy but cheaper: https://www.amazon.co.uk/KIMISS-Motorcycle-Windshield-Adjustable-Accessories/dp/B08KW6V8MN/ref=sr_1_50_sspa?crid=E9P610C9Q0UG&dchild=1&keywords=wind+deflector+motorcycle&qid=1621046988&quartzVehicle=93-11572&replacementKeywords=deflector+motorcycle&sprefix=Wind+deflector+mot%2Caps%2C158&sr=8-50-spons&psc=1&smid=A31JE9OJKRZNGY&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEyMkNYNVRXQzlHMk5WJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNzkyNjYzM0k5VjBNQkRCQU9aMyZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwNzM2MzM3RlFXUEcyUERFOTdLJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfYnRmJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==  One like this on my TDM: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Justech-Motorcycle-Windscreen-Adjustable-Windshield/dp/B07MZQVX42/ref=sr_1_5?crid=E9P610C9Q0UG&dchild=1&keywords=wind+deflector+motorcycle&qid=1621046936&quartzVehicle=93-11572&replacementKeywords=deflector+motorcycle&sprefix=Wind+deflector+mot%2Caps%2C158&sr=8-5  both do the same job just which will look better on your bike.  After that I learned on trophy some wind over the screen is good, hence I have shorter screen and deflector.  Allot comes to personal choice.  Don’t get rid of old screen until your certain the new one is better. 1 Quote

Gerontious Posted May 15, 2021 Posted May 15, 2021 MRA screens (or additional spoilers)Â are generally aimed at curing a specific fault, which is buffeting or turbulence. This might be what you want. or. it may not. 1 Quote

This might be what you want. or. it may not. I’ve tried a variety of screens on various of my bikes. Including bubble (waste of money), larger (I had to cut it down midway to the standard), and the MRA.  It’s hit and miss whether they work on any particular bike / rider, but the MRA had a degree of adjustment that helped make it work for me on the Tiger. 1 Quote
