Re: [ST] Wind Screens

["Jonathan" <jonathanrellis@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Matt - I do not have risers on my ST and I have the Triumph sport touring
screen.  I am 5' 11" and I get a mix of clean and buffeting air on my
helmet.  I think that with the ZG touring screen I would get cleaner (more
direct) air as I think it isn't quite as high as the Triumph version.  If
you are 6' 1" and with risers - I would think you would get cleaner air with
either the ZG or the Triumph screen, but cleaner still with the ZG.  I am
considering both the ZG touring and DB, because they both are slightly lower
than stock from what I can tell.

hmmmm...interesting. I'm working with a stock screen and risers right now.
And I'm 6' 1". Wonder where that leaves me...
