MRA Vario where's yours

[csd4t]

I've just been out trying to dial in my new screen but to be honest I didn't find it any better than the standard adventure screen with tobinators. I think I tried all the positions (3 "tilt" and 3 for the upper screen) admittedly it was very windy out so probably not a good comparison yet. So where do you position yours? 6ft with low corbin fitted.

I have both the lower and upper parts of the screen on the top notch.

I'm about 6ft and use a Sargent seat. It works for me but I've never tried an Adv screen with Tobinators.

Ps I personally think a lot of problems people have with their 'screen' is partially due to the type of helmet they wear. I use a Schuberth C2.

try the MRA with the tobinators. Tricky to adjust correctly, because there is LOADS of adjustment. But you can get it so you get wind on your chest, but nothing on your helmet at all...

giving us your height, does not tell us where your head is in relation to the seat.
I'm 5'10" but only have a 29" inside leg, so i probasbly sit higher than you.

Top part of screen set at highest, the rake is set at the middle position.

I have a schuberth & a Roof helmet, both of them noted for being quiet.

On the GS I can wear my ear phones and listen to the radio at low volumes. But I cannot do this on my Yamaha Divvy 900.

When wearing the schuberth and using ear plugs, i can hear cars on the motorway coming up behind me on the outer lanes when I'm doing 70, the lid is that quiet. The Roof cannot match it.

Is the issue you have with the screen wind noise or buffeting?

I found an MRA an instant cure for buffeting but had to put a TT extender on it to remove wind blast.

I've had to use this on all my GS screens except for the Ceebaileys barn door that was fitted on my first GSA.

Currently running a GSA screen with tobinators and TT extender. I intend to change to an MRA at some point for less faffing and easier screen removal.

Thanks for the feedback so far, I'm .32 inside leg, I found that as per Eliminator middle tilt setting and highest upper screen was best- no buffetting but lots of wind noise, the lower settings gave much more wind noise and the higher (more forward) setting created more buffetting. As I said I need to try it out when its not as windy as yesterday. I have an Arai helmet

Ive had one on for a while now and I don't rate it as a solution to anything except a lighter wallet, tried all the positions and settings about the only thing it does do is "reduce" the buffeting, however it then causes loads of wind noise and a constant blast of air up the chin piece of the helmet/ nostrils! Also because its narrower than the GSA screen I get loads of wind/rain hitting the shoulder/chest area!!! If you never go faster than 50 mph you wont have any problems but then you wouldn't have any with the standard screen either.
Waste of money in my opinion anyone in the market for a waste of money?
I'm going back to the GSA screen with a few DIY modifications
