Screen options.

I know everybody will have their own opinions but what is generally seen as the best option for an "after market" screen? The one thing that didn't impress on the test ride was the screen! I had an MRA screen on my RS, the one with the spoiler, it worked well for me. It seems this is only available in dark smoke for the RT, I think that would not be good for me, I'm 5' 6" and may end up looking through the screen. What is available in Europe?
Thanks. Phil

For the Wethead, the Werks Quiet Ride HAS to be up there at the top of the pile.

My vote goes for Werks Quite Ride
The shape with the lip on top directs wind and rain away from your face
Top quality

Also the shape of the sides directs turbulence away from rider and pillion flanks.

Yes they do ship to Europe, but dont forget you will pay import tax.

Werks Quiet ride for me too - brilliant. Mine came of eBay from a gent who was selling his RT. He had imported it from US.
