And just in case you are interested in the science … PMMA, is short for Poly Methyl Methacrylate, the scientific name for the synthetic polymer more commonly known as acrylic, acrylic glass, and plexiglass. PMMA will not corrode, and it is resistant to ultraviolet light, weather, and most other environmental factors. PMMA is also one of the safer plastics, being both recyclable and BPA free. But Is It Any Good? Placing the new Vario screen over the 900GT variant shows that the 9GT screen is much narrower at the waist. A natural change considering the obstruction of the handguards. The amount MRA has removed though is surprising. The two screens are the same height, width at the top and follow the same curve. It is only the waistline that has been on a diet.

Tailor your bike's airflow to suit your individual height, riding stance/clothing, combined with the noise characteristics of your helmet and your typical cruising speed... In a word, Yes, and if I’m allowed two words, I’ll go with Hell Yes. The standard screen did a reasonable job for me with wind noise, but the buffeting was very tiring. The best description I have for it is being beaten on the left and right sides of your helmet twice a second. With the MRA Vario Screen, the buffeting has now gone. Adventure models - Please note there are reasons why this screen is slightly SMALLER than your bike’s original. Given the improvement the older MRA Touring Screen delivers, I’m somewhat puzzled how MRA could have improved it again – other than fixing the handguard issue – when producing the Tracer 9 /9GT specific screen. MRA Vario screens deal with the basic requirements for wind protection and minimising turbulence in the base design. However, as everyone needs something a little different, so MRA then adds an easily adjustable spoiler near the screen’s upper edge. Changing the spoiler’s angle reduces any remaining turbulence or wind noise to match your riding position. Tighter CurvesThe many adjustment options for angle, length and gap keep the headwind deflected upwards from between the base and upper screen, keeping turbulence to an absolute minimum and the wind away from the helmet and upper body reducing noise and buffeting, improving your comfort and vastly reducing rider fatigue on long journeys. Only one thing for it, I’ll just have to road test the new screen. It is a hard life road testing, especially on a sunny afternoon. Recap: Tracer 900 MRA Vario Screen There is still some residual wind noise, but that is to be expected when you are doing 70 MPH on a motorcycle. Custom earplugs and a Schuberth C4 take care of that.

So you n3d to work it out ! Try riding friends bike's which have differing combination of bars , fairings , screen or gearing and see what's best for you ! In the UK, the distributor for MRA Screens is Harwood Performance Source, better known as HPS. They have always been a pleasure to deal with, and yes we paid for our screens.I’m 6’6, and I’m still shielded from the wind if I set the screen to its highest position; I can even ride with my visor up." It's a true all-rounder also effective for removing scratches and scrapes from caravans, motorhome side windows, superficial damage on boat hulls and household objects such as furniture and acrylic baths or washbasins.

But as long as your happy with it and it works as you want that's all that matters...
