K1300s screen recommendations
« on: September 12, 2023, 07:48:52 pm »
Having had my newly-acquired K1300S out a few times, I wonder whether there’s any benefit to be gained by an aftermarket screen to cut down the wind blast?
Recommendations?

Having tried the Search function and found nil, I posted this. I used Google and found Oxman’s thread in this forum which answers my question.

Take the screen off and go for a ride. You'll be amazed at how quite it is.
As I have grown older, I've learned that pleasing everybody is impossible, but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

I've got an MRA Varioscreen. Made a significant difference.  I've turned the adjustable blade upside down which made it quieter. You can see photos on my K1200S and K1300S threads
