Air buffeting and screens.

[dobbyhdm]

So having come over to the ADV scene from a sportsbike background, the lack of air buffeting was great, more comfortable, but it was still there.

I increased the height of my screen and installed winglets but i still find that my head and shoulders are still catching the wind, especially noticable vibration from the peak on my helmet. Notably anything over 45/50mph

I did a short bike swap, had a go on a friends Triumph Tiger 800, MUCH smaller and lower screen, but almost no buffeting. I was amazed and how quiet my little windless bubble was!

what is going on with that??

Any reccomendations folks?

welcome new member , search the info in this forum there is probably hundreds of windshield post to help you make a choice on an after market screen .
I currently have a California science windshield on my 2019 , does a great job and resonably priced . had the screen for awhile ,California scientific might be their name (my bad ) so google either name you will find it . I would buy this screen again .
add your location on your member info so we might understand where your from .

There is a solution, not everyone likes it but it works! Take a look at this video and this thread and just get over the looks, the screen is amazing! https://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?threads/givi-airflow-vs-stock-screen.29890/
