Cadre put on the Guzzi Touring screen for me today. It’s 3” taller. It provides a little better wind protection, but it is VERY noisy - as in wind noise. I prefer it in the lowest position because of that. I am a musician, and have bad tinnitus. The frequency of that high wind sound really sets off the ringing in my ears - they’re still going crazy as I write this! I am pretty sure it’s related to the wind that comes up under and behind the screen - ie, if I lean forward in the cockpit, it gets really loud right behind the screen (like, helmet touching it) … the added height possibly channeling the wind/noise straight up into the cockpit. I am going to experiment with using my little XScreen deflector to try to find a position/angle that changes the aerodynamics and cuts down on the noise. Jeez, it’s always something! 1st world problems, eh?🧐

Thank you for the information
 
If I were shopping I would first check the offerings from Cal-Sci (California Scientific) Also options are available from Biondi and PowerBronze. The Guzzi screen (which I have) is very well made, but is overpriced and is barely larger than the stocker, IMO.

I like the CalSci offerings too… they have center vents, which I’m sure would help with the wind noise.

In Service Settings there is a choice between small and big screen. I suspect that the big setting limits the speed at which you can adjust the screen
