Default 01 Naked SV650 windsheild?

I have a 01 Naked SV650 and want a windsheild / mini faring that goes around the headlight. What are the options? What's the best?
Thanks!

Givi, good quality and looks good but quite expensive

Hein Gericke touring, cheap and does the trick but is a bit flimsy

Fabri, better quality version of the gericke touring, but a bit more expensive.

Hi Guys,

I think I could do with one of those, does it really stop the wind pummeling your helmet at 70mph+ ?

My sv650 naked is great but I find it the wind extremely noisy at motorway speeds, especially on exposed sections of road. And will they still do the job for a tall 6'2" bloke like me?

I have a Skidmarx screen, pretty similar to Skip's Fabri one by the looks of it. Works very well for such a small item and deflects a lot of the wind blast. Of course, it does depend on how tall you are and what angle you set the screen at as to how effective they are. I'm only five foot nine and it works for me - a six footer might still get buffetted.

Go for the GIVI one everytime as you can order the "lower" part colour coded to whatever colour your bike is
