Thanks for your review, i just bought a 22 tracer 9 in the redline and I'm 5'7 and I thought the stock windshield would be good, took it on the highway and holy crap the buffeting on top of my helmet is enough to drive me nuts, I had to lower it to get a normal airflow, I've been looking at windscreens and this one seems to be an awesome choice!
thnx for the review! have the same bike and body height. the buffeting is driving me nuts. few questions. 1. does ure line of sight goes above the screen when it’s in the upper position as well as the deflector or u look through it? 2. do u think the buffeting issue might be solved with just a stock screen + deflector? ty!
I see well over it even in the highest positions. The stock screen IMO wouldn't do the job with a deflector because the curved surface of the MRA is smoothing out the air flow and turbulence. I actually put some rubber grommets as spacers under the top WS bolts to stand up the MRA a bit more as it's a tiny bit low when I have my thicker seat on.
Just the factory one. I did a lot of research and decided this one was the best chance to cure most issues. I have since discovered that I could take some thick rubber grommets , placed under the two top windshield mounting screws, to make the windshield more steep in angle to provide more wind protection and deflect insects above my helmet visor. The curve is a little too much and wind was directly onto my visor, so it really got covered in bugs too fast. Increasing the angle steeper (I also did a tiny heat bend but beware of discoloring the plastic) with rubber grommet shims, increased my enjoyment greatly with less wind noise, buffeting and visor debris. Improved an very good windshield to great status and gave the range of adjustments more useful. I also have a higher seat so this would work for a 6 ft person, as I'm 5'11"
I ordered out of Italy as I couldn't find any NA stock at the time. No regrets, they shipped fast and no issues. www.ebay.ca/itm/275293347851?hash=item4018c3200b:g:UY4AAOSwIn1ibGd-
I'll never understand why the manufacturer's don't just make the windshields that they they know people are going to want.
Looks so much better, thanks for sharing

Great video! I'm also from Canada (MB). Where did you order the windscreen from? Any local dealers?

this comfort seat,is it comfort?
It adds that bit more padding to make it much more bearable on long rides or early season. A tiny bit of improvement making just enough difference.
What’s you’re height ?
5'11"
