    Windscreen adjuster widget

    Anyone know where I can buy one of these black adjustable windscreen gadgets ?

    My current windscreen causes buffeting around my helmet and so needs to be a bit taller.
    Rather than playing trial & error with adding on bits, this adjuster looks like just the business.

    This photo was taken on a bike traded into a dealer. The dealer had never seen one before.

    Any suggestions from the audience ?

    Most of the bigger bike shops in Dorkland will have or can ge them.
    But they are readily available on E Bay and or re Tard me for not a lot of coin. I have a similar thing on my bandit, it works exceptionally well.

    Just buy a taller screen for the model you have. Plenty of places make them ... not particularly expensive either.

    Additional Screen

    Evening.
    If you're looking for the small screen - to fit atop your existing screen, have a web search
    for MRA Vario x-screen. I fitted one to my VFR, and it made a reasonable difference to the
    air flow around my helmet.

    The screen can be affixed to your existing screen either by screws (pre-drill), or by use of
    feet that can be slid over the top of your existing screen. My MRA Vario kit came with feet
    to support either option - I used the latter method to avoid cracking the existing screen.

    The height of the small screen can be adjusted via arms that pivot, and can be locked into
    place via adjustors.

    I purchased mine for the MRA Vario website in the US, though I have seen them advertised
    on EBay.

    If you want any more details or a few photos, feel free to PM me.

    Cheers,
    Viking
