    image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg Just fitted the adjustable screen kit to the tiger, let's see what it does to the wind noise on the commute tomorrow :) hopefully it solves the issue

    It's standard on the XRx but I was disappointed with the performance. It's intolerable on the high setting but OK on the lowest.

    I found that the Triumph standard and taller adjustable screen that were fitted to my 800XC were not tall enough, so ended up buying a Madstad screen. I can ride visor up at motorway legal speeds.

    Noted, but ultimately we don't want to have to change the screen, lets see what happens, if it comes to it we will look at aftermarket ones

    I'm 5' 10" so on the high setting it causes all the air to hit you in the face and is quite noisy.

    looks good to me, the screen is terrible on the tiger. seems like it needs to sit 4 inches higher and it would be ok, looks like you've cracked the problem there

    Try putting a 15mm spacer between the screen and its mounting bracket. You will need 4 X 15mm spacers and 4 new bolts 15mm longer than they are now.

    This made a big difference to the wind buffeting/ noise on my a Explorer. Worth a try for £5.
