Quite a long way from the top
I’m looking for a shorter (OEM) screen for a 2019 model. Not a fan of bigger screens so looking for something smaller than what’s fitted currently. Tinted ideally

What you got? (Bubb looking currently for one he possibly has - thanks Bubb)
 
I had the short smoked screen as standard. I was never very happy with it. I picked up a very tall Calsci screen someone had had made. Looked awful and as bad for noise and buffeting as the standard screen. Sold it. The MG touring screen (taller & clear) was better but I didn’t like the look either. I also tried a very very short Biondi screen. Again, looks, well, umm odd but quieter with a lot of wind blast. All screen tried with and without an MRA flip jobby. Small improvement of noise and vibration with that fitted. Then I added a Palmer products bracket to the bike to lift the screen away and up along with loads of angle and height adjustments. This worked best for protection & noise with the MG touring screen but looked odd and I didn’t like sitting behind it at all. Second best that looked ok too was the standard screen with flip all on low/ nearest the rider. But it was never perfect.

Just saying, you can chase the noise buffeting thing for ever. End of the day,you are Ona motorcycle and it’s noisy and you are in the wind.
 
I'll ask my brother when I see him early next week
When I sold my v85tt, I gave him a box of spares and accessories, we may have one....

It’s a dark deep hole chasing screen nirvana

Happily, I’m not bothered by the buffeting so much…just like the look of a smaller screen and don’t like to have to look through it. It’s purely to get it out of my line of sight :)
