Rocket roadster large screen

[Paul Jacobs]

I have just paid $630.00 for the Triumph Roadster large screen. I have the brackets from the sports screen I have. The bottom line is the screen is to short I'm only 5'10'' and the deflected air hits me at nose level and the extra wind noise isn't pleasant. I have the screen high as it will go. Do other people have the same problem? I'm thinking of making extension brackets to raise the screen further but I think this will look a bit naff. I've seen after market screens, but you have to have the frame, which I now have. Any ideas gladly received. Happy ANZAC day.

You might want to try a spoiler on the top of the windshield. Cheap alternative to replacing the screen.

Also, a lot of air can come under the screen from the sides creating buffeting. Placing deflectors on the forks will help rid that as well.

Get one like I have. No extra noise, no buffetting.

That's Malcy and TC in the background, in Tassie last year, by the way. TC's bike is across the road.

Clearview makes good screens. You're all set since you have the frame for the triumph screen. It's just a simple swap using the same frame. I have a Clearview 23" with recurve, vent, and no cutouts for the fogs. It works well. I easily could have gone with the 25" as I'm 6'2". The 23" would be perfect for your height.

Duck down a bit or slouch .

My bikes across the road for a quick getaway .. some of those fellas had pretty dubious riding skills

Ain't that the truth? The rider of that Victory just behind you 2 was the biggest worry.

Sleprock on the Multisrada that had me worried .. for a while anyway.

Canberra3 thanks for you advice, I am given to understand that persons who have little to hinder air movement between ear apertures prefer that type of screen. Happy ANZAC Day
