I noticed a big difference with tank bag on though, due to some wierd aerodynamic effect the wind blows up under my chin :? , not comfortable at all.
Also I have rearsets all the way back which might alter the angle I sit at. (tip forward a bit, therefore head is lower)

hmmm i get the same thing with the tank bag, but without its pretty much the same...how odd lol!

Had a double B fitted originally, but went back to the std (OK, a std-but-tinted look alike) as there was more air pushed onto my chest with the lower screen which gave a more comfortable position during high speed touring. A sort of air support cushion. The higher DB screen protected you more from wind and rain blast but gave my wrists a hard time from more weight on them. :(

All a question of choice due to speed, distance covered, your physical size etc.

Enjoy your new screen Timbo. Certainly looks good!!! :D
