Windshield Search

On another thread (entitled "Easy Question") which I launched recently and also about windshields, I mentioned the Parabellum Sport windshield...I have one on my BMW K75 bike and it is marvelous. Here is a link Popgun added to his reply on that thread. it is available in different heights...This one is the tallest.

Be advised, it is pricey.
I just confirmed that the Parabellum sport works on the 2014 CB1100 standard and ordered this shield and it is to ship on Monday. I got the tinted one in the 22" height.

Aside from the cosmetic beauty of the Puig (IMHO), the magic number is 9.5-10" in height to prevent buffeting. The new one does it. I'll post feedback and pics when I get mine. Hopefully, I'll have pics of the sprocket mod soon or just after.

I did 50 miles on I-10 yesterday with the EX on. The ride was more pleasant, but still a lot of noise. I'm wearing a 3/4 Gmax 67S helmet with a jaw set on and I discovered the wind is leaking on the sides of the visor. Clamping a hand over that reduces the noise substantially. I also noticed the wind coming from the bottom sides creates some turbulence, but not any real pressure. The air coming under the EX over the headlight, seemed to dissipate without effecting anything.

The MRA-X seems like a good potential solution in lieu of a bigger shield. Is it stable at highway speeds and does it scratch the EX when used?

I had a JC Whitney imitation Vetter on a 76 Suzuki GT550. Not as nice as the windjammer, but it worked great.

I find the MRA X-creen very stable at highway speeds. The clamp-on version is well engineered with rubber pads to contact the existing windscreen.

I have not removed it yet to see if the existing screen is scratched but I doubt it. It does not vibrate and I made sure the rubber pads were clean and the screen was cleaned and polished before I installed it. If there is any minor marking upon removal, I'm sure it can be polished out with plexus.

+1 on the MRA X-creen. I installed it on the National Cycle Plexistar 2 and it
makes for a great combo. Eliminated the helmet buffeting from the PS2.

Thanks to all for all the discussion and useful info. It's going to cost me a little more, but I appreciate it.
