Something that might be worth considering is to add stuff called
'Micro-Swirl Edging' (http://www.saeng.com/4000.htm) to the top-edge
of the screen. I got some for the touring screen on my '03 ST
following a suggestion in this forum to fix a similar problem with
noise / buffeting. It actually seems to work - doesn't hugely change
things, but does seem to have moved the line of turbulence up a few
inches. However somehow it has significantly reduced the noise /
buffeting I experience.
The tape is expensive, but not as costly as a new screen. The people
selling the stuff are quite friendly, so might be worth contacting
them and asking if they think it would work on the new ST screen.
Best regards
