Sounds like the stock screen is slightly better than the stocker on 
my Honda. I'm 6'1" and the stock screen would soak my upper chest, 
shoulders and helmet in the rain. I added an ST screen from Zero 
Gravity and now the rain only hits my helmet. I did experience a lot 
more helmet buffeting over stock until I added my tank bag, that 
seems to force the laminar flow under the screen upward.

I guess I would be in about the same boat on the sprint which is fine
with me.
