Hi Guys! I "come" from an Aprilia Caponord, few days ago I got a new ST1200, really a great bike! My experience with Capo was awesome, one among the many Capo's merits is the wind repair in highway travel, for me and pillion. I've travelled only few km (500) with ST and i'm curious about higher windshield and/or wind deflectors. I am 175 cm (5,74 feet). Any suggestion?
thanx for your attention

I heard from my dealer that they fitted one S10 with the higher windscreen and that the owner decide to took it off and put the standard screen on again. His complain was that the higher screen vibrates a lot when doing high speed riding and in strong head winds.

I had a simlar issue with an after market screen last year, only to find out the dealer had fitted it incorrectly and the screen had come lose after about 5 miles of riding. There are already several screens on the market for the Super Ten with more in development now. Take a look round on the forum and your come up with a few choices straight away.

the higher screen will make a difference if you are short or tall person. it will work well for some and not the others.
