    Default Need Some Windshield Spoiler Help!

    Hello guys - I've been searching but can't draw a conclusion on which spoiler would be best for my 2016 F3T - I installed the factory "Tall" windshield but I'm still getting too much air, I decided to add an adjustable spoiler to defuse some of the winter air.

    I found a few from Mara X screen (attached) but don't know which would fit best on my shield.

    Any info would be greatly appreciated!

    Looks like I'm going with the X Screen - here's a video of the smaller and larger versions.

    I would try removing the satellite dish from the front first, it may be deflecting the air and causing turbulence.

    The X-Screen is awesome.... I got the clamp on version and love it. Very adjustable.

    Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!

    I used the Laminar on my old GS. The X-Screen is a far superior product. The he adjustability is fantastic... I've even done it going down the road. I really only need it for longer highway trips and can easily pop it off for in town... but after awhile I just got used to it and left it on. Here's a photo of it on. IMG_5392.JPG

    Good catch on seeing the satellite dish in the photos.....
    We all know that any one windscreen isn't perfect for all riders due to physical attributes of the rider and the specific bike the windscreen is on....but the experience of others might make the decision easier. So here's my experience....On my 2015 F-3S I have the Gustafson smoked windscreen with the sport X screen and am happy with the combination. I'm 6'1" and tried the BR first. Hope you get the right one for you.
