  1. Wow, you are a gear whore!! Hilarious
  2. This helmet was bought about 3 years ago and has been used very little. Stored in non smoking odor free home. No damage, never dropped, excellent condition. See pics. Size: Large Helmet was $219 plus taxes when bought new. Price: $90 plus $15 to ship in the lower 48
  3. I got the smoke version of the Sport screen but I got the clear version of the Touring Vario. I don't do much night riding so I really can't say for sure if you get the smoked version. I would not think it would make a huge difference. Also, you are still looking over the screen (even the Touring Vario version) So just get the color you want. They are good screens.
  4. What kind of helmet? I finally gave up and bought the MRA Touring Vario. None of them are perfect but it is the best I have used. Motorcycles are always a compromise.
  5. I have a 2022 T9GT and wound up buying an MRA Sport for summer riding and an MRA Touring Vario for winter riding. I didn't want to spend that much money on screens as the MRA screens are not cheap but I am glad I did. My biggest issue was buffeting. The wind noise does not bother me that much. With the MRA Sport in the low position you get completely clean air with basically no buffeting. With the MRA Touring Vario installed and the deflector adjusted properly, buffeting is reduced by 80 to 90%. Very good. You do still get wind noise with both screens but it is not obnoxious. I have owned Puig screens in the past and they are good but the MRA seem to get the nod for the Tracer. I know this does not answer your question directly but maybe gives some insight.
  6. Thanks for the response. You are about 2 inches taller than me. I am 68" in height. I am able to use the stock screen for riding day to day but on longer rides at higher speeds (65 mph or higher) the buffeting begins to be tiresome and starts to give me a headache. I bought an MRA Sport screen to use in the summer during hot weather riding to provide more airflow and it does not buffet. Now I am looking for a screen to use during the winter that will provide good protection but reduce the buffeting. Like I said in my original post, I have ordered an MRA Touring Vario screen but it will take 6 to 8 weeks to arrive so I am considering the WRS Touring. If I order the WRS and I like it, I can cancel the order for the MRA. Based on your description the WRS might be a good fit for me. thanks again.
  7. I just ordered an MRA Touring Vario but to get the clear screen it is 6-8 weeks so I am considering the WRS Touring Windscreen. I am ok with the looks and the description talks about wind buffeting. Any feedback appreciated.
  8. I reiterate what Maverick ask, is it the standard height or low height corbin?
  9. Thanks. I might try one or just get the MRA Touring Vario. How do you like the Transalp?
  10. I will second the question of, "how is the ErMax with buffeting." I went on a long ride yesterday with a group of riders. Rode about 280 miles. Great weather. Great ride. However, I put my stock screen back on because it was chilly yesterday morning. The stock screen buffeted my helmet all day and by the time I got back I had a terrible headache. I should have left the MRA Sport screen on. I need to find a solution for cold weather riding. I am considering the MRA Touring Vario screen but at over $200 I want to make sure it will eliminate or greatly reduce the buffeting before buying. Anyone with the MRA Touring Vario please give your input. I am 5'8" and at lower speeds the stock screen in the upper position does not buffet very much, but when your speeds increase to 65 and 70 mph and up it gets bad enough to really be a PITA. Maybe the answer is using the smaller screen year around but the stock screen really does a good job of keeping the cold air off during colder riding. All input appreciated.
  11. Sounds good. Let us know your thoughts after a few days of riding.
  12. When i click the link it takes me to https://www.sendgb.com/upload/ I don't see how to download the manual. Do I need to create some type of account? Thanks
