I'm looking at getting a higher screen for my 800 and was wondering if there's any feedback on them. I'm 1.81cm tall. On the weekend I rode a 1200 Adventure and found that screen to be just a touch too low even though it was set at it's maximum. If I dipped my head slightly it was absolutely fantastic.

Thanks, Eric

Sorry I posted this message on an older thread so may not get seen.

Aerotrim

I am 1.97 m tall and love the kappa screen. Rode 1700 km from Pta to CT without trouble. If i have to fault it, I need more shoulder protection but this is a minor. I fitted an aerotrim (www.aerotrim.co.za) to remove the last 10cm's worth of wind from my helmet. It served me well on a recent 6500km trip to Vic Falls. There is still not much of a cure for side winds apart from sitting off center...
