I am not aware of another one on the market yet. I know there are a couple 
in the works ....

I would assume that you will see a Corbin / Rifle model on the market 
fairly soon. I looked at the rifle for my old sprint and thought it looked 
terrible (very unflattering to the stock lines). I ended up with a screen 
that Lilleys was offering (I think made by powerbronze.)

As for the Triumph, I got mine from Lilley's as well. It does a great job 
keeping the bugs off the visor (a problem around the waterways here in the 
spring) and does a really good job of deflecting the wind. I am pulling 
mine right now for the summer months so that I can enjoy the increased 
airflow of the stock screen, but I am planning on putting the taller screen 
back on later in the fall for fall / winter riding. I find the styling 
compliments the lines nicely (although I know not everyone agrees with that).

I like the height that the genmars give me. It doesn't seem like much, but 
enough to make a difference for me.
