cheers amp, will have a look at getting one of them asap. Came to work on the bike this morning 30 miles of motorways, and didn't struggle too much with wind buffetting, but there was a lot of traffic and I didn't cruise at 85-90 for long.. I'll have a proper rideout to the coast and then see how I feel about an MRA screen

Well another plus one for the MRA screens. SpeedyClaire has one on her SV and it looks really good, although she is such a short-house she does not really need it! *runs*

I also have one on my VFR and I think it looks first class. The fit and quality of the plastic on the MRA is very good. Here's a photos of both bikes showing the MRA.

I think with a bike like yours, looks are more important. You wouldnt catch a gixxer with a massive screen, so personally id go double bubble.

As mine clicked over 18K miles this weekend, I might stand to make on this. Will be keeping the maxton bling though.
