MRA Sport Screen
After waiting more than two months I received my MRA Sport screen and have finally had a chance to test it out. I'm 5'8" and have an Arai Corsair V helmet so YMMV. Installation is a bit fiddly but only took about 10 minutes once I figured out the hardware - which is black. I didn't realize how bad the original screen was until I installed the MRA - it's much quieter and its size belies how well it deflects air flow turbulence. I have it set about 2/3 height and will experiment with different heights but even if it doesn't get any better than it is currently I'll be very happy.
I know aesthetics are subjective but I think the screen looks great and fits the design of the bike better than the original screen or others that I have seen. Because it's a shorter and wider design than the original or other after-market screens it reduces that 'Roger - from American Dad' look attributed to the tall, narrow screens. The workmanship and materials also seem to be very high quality. Let me know if you want photos - I'm having trouble uploading them.
I also have the 22" Cee Bailey which I bought for long rides (and works great) but the MRA is good enough that it may see use as a touring screen as well - especially in hot weather.
Anyway, there's been a lot of discussion on this topic - hope this helps.
