In my experience, removing your windscreen results in the quietest ride. If you must have wind protection, a screen which extends to at least eye level (or higher) usually works best. A mid-heighth screen, like on my F800GT, will spill turbulent air onto your shoulders or helmet and create buffeting and unnecessary wind noise. As always, YMMV. For me, custom molded silicone ear plugs have proven to be the most convenient, comfortable, hygienic, and effective solution.
