    I fitted an MRA to my Vara a couple of weeks back and it gives a big improvement though my other half says it's now a bit more lively on the back at about 65 plus than it was with the standard screen. I use either a Tour cross or a Multitec lid and the improvement with the Multitec is even more noticable than with the Tour cross. Jon.
    Oh yes, I'm 5ft 11'.

    I'm 5'10" and have the GIVI - it's been on the bike ever since I've owned it so can't compare with other screens but yes it does cause turbulence.

    Re: Givi screen or MRA screen with winglet ?

    I have an MRA on my Vara, however I'm only a stumpy dwarf at a mere 5'10.

    I found that at "cruising speed" the wing on the MRA chucks the air right over my head but then it must descend quickly and it gets looped back in towards my lower back by the topbox. Only noticeable when I wear a light waterproof jacket over my summer gear as the jacket tends to get pushed up by the wind.
