Esperance Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I just installed the mid/sport-touring version of the V-Stream on my bike. I am 6'3" with a 33" inseam, so I have a long torso. I have to sort of validate with Johan is saying. I don't get a buffeting at high speed but there is a strange vibration at helmet level above 75mph that is annoying. If I scrunch down a couple of inches it seems to go away, so maybe I need to get the taller touring screen. Or something else entirely...Taller screen - or - Try a small deflector like the MRA X-Creen. It would likely boost that turbulent air enough. I had one on my last bike and it was very effective. http://www.twistedthrottle.ca/mra-x-creen-sport-add-on-variable-windscreen-spoiler-blade-bolt-on-and-clamp-on-hardware-included Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ridebmx Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 I also have the MRA spoiler on my bike but unfortunately its most completely ineffective, although it does get some of the wind of me the buffeting and wind noise is almost unbearable, I've been very disappointed with my current screen option, the noise and buffeting is just too much, I wish this had helped but I felt like a wasted $100+ dollars.

Premium Member keithu Posted November 26, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted November 26, 2016 Taller screen I ended up buying the taller V-Stream screen. It works much better for me and I've gotten used to the huge size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmason718 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Hi guys! Just ordered my Vstream. I went for the sporty one N20316. Not a big fan of those giant touringscreens out there. Hopefully this one does the job. Cheers from sweden im also interested in the Sport version of the Vstream is anyone else using this windscreen? I'm 5'9 and looking to take some of the wind off my helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are also pictures that show relative heights of the screen for a 5'10" rider. http://fj-09.forums.net/thread/4498/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
