I am 6' 3'' and hate motorway riding - standard or DB screen - it makes no difference - anything over 70mph then I have to lean forward to avoid the buffeting. Overtaking juggernauts is particularly bad.

Strange... what's your leg length? I have no issues.

As the LoFos will attest, my old 33hp Fazer did a fair bit more than 70.... My highest recorded was 110 indicated (on a long private road). Didn't have too many issues!

I tuck down at motorway speed. Problem solved and you get an instant 10kmh increase in speed at the same throttle position :lol

I think it would make a big difference at higher speeds, considering I'm 6'2" and this company seems to be making quality products (purchasable at Louis.eu as well).

So this screen arrived today and took me literally 5min to mount it.
Haven't tried riding with it yet, but it will surely provide better cover at high speeds than stock one.
The quality is good, but not as good as the stock one (no problems with it whatsoever though).

Some pics...

Stock vs. MRA:

And another one:

For now, I think I like it. Time will tell - I never had different screen than stock in 12 years, which is for how long I have my Fazer.
Of all the screens I've seen, this one looked the least harmful to stock feel, which I like.
