Scrambler Scrambler 1200 Xc In My Future?

On the Facebook forums people seem to like the larger Triumph screen, still quite small, one chap loves this below, its a Puig Custom screen clips to handlebars and is easy on/off should you wish to remove. I have the tittchy screen on my XC and its okay, albeit at 90mph I'm fighting the wind.

 

Although I’ve only got the Street Scrambler it’s similar style suggests similar effects from a windscreen. I put a Madstad 20” screen on for exactly the same reason you are thinking and you may find it useful to look at the thread ‘Anyone fitted a Madstad windscreen’ that I started a while back. Basically the screen creates a heck of a lot of noise at anything over 50mph and unwanted turbulence at anything over 25mph so wouldn’t rush out to buy one of those despite the flexibility of the mounting system. Tried it in all its height & rake positions and nothing works for me. Having had the Triumph fly screen and the very slightly higher ‘Touring screen’ (?? why called that I don’t know), the Street Scrambler is best for me with no screen at all up to 65mph, as even the flyscreens bump air onto my chest and up under the collar of a full face helmet. Despite proper moulded ear plugs and a Schuberth C3 pro the wind noise from the big Madstad is quite unbearable for a long fast run so I choose local back roads for my biking where the bike is in its element. If I was wanting to do a lot of fast long distance I’d swap my classic style for another Tiger 800 where the Madstad I fitted to that worked like a dream at very high speeds. Hope this of some use

 

I'm getting on really well with the Dart Marlin. Big enough to take the wind of my chest and maintain 75~80mph. Small enough to look good. British made and excellent quality. BTW I'm 5'11".

Good luck with your search. Keep us all informed about the bike. And a good photo when you stop playing of course
