    Can any of you recommend a good wind deflector for my 2008 Bonneville screen. The screen is the original Triumph part and it creates some turbulence and buffeting. I am 6' and I put the screen on each autumn for use through the winter.

    Save yourself some money and get a Puig one.

    There are two versions, the one above clamps to the top of the screen while the other is identical but requires you to drill holes in the screen to mount it. There's about a fiver difference in price.

    I have one fitted to the screen on my Honda and it made all the difference, no more buffeting around my helmet, stop sniggering at the back.

    I have the one that required drilling, it comes with a stick on template and is really simple to do. It took less than 15mins to fit it.

    I bought the MRA screen tour. Yes, at £100 inc delivery it wasn't cheap.
    It came with screen clamp and direct bolt attachments. You assemble it yourself but that was straightforward. It looks a bit ugly but it's only for winter time.
    I had hoped it would work in the down position but due to my height and very upright seat position I had to use the more upright one. It seems to be infinitely variable between the two. Yes, it works very well. I have only tried it to 70mph so far on the motorway but it was very stable and vibration was minimal. I can easily see over it.
    The buffeting and turbulence have gone.
