Like most, i tried the stock screen in both positions.
I bought a MRA vario Touring screen. It was much better, but still got my XD4 visor going pretty good at high speed.
Interestingly, my pillion did not experience any of the same buffeting that was driving me crazy.
I didn't want to add the weight and complexity of an adjustable mount, plus I have an SW motech GPS mount that would interfere and I like it very much.
So, I bought some rubber washers and longer bolts at the hardware store. The washers are about 1/8" thick. I added 2 washers to the upper mounting bolts between the screen and the stay and used the longer bolts. the longer bolts were not black, so i hit them with a sharpie.
I'm absolutely amazed at the difference. The change in the angle is pretty substantial and the effects are excellent.
It worked so well, I'm half tempted to get out my stock screen and try it with the washers behind it.
Look behind your screen where it touches the stays. It only touches the rubber inserts.
