V-stream windscreen installed on my 2010 FZ1

Hello guys,
I just put on a taller windscreen made by V-stream. I have not tested it out yet, but it looks good and hope it functions as well as it looks.
I will post updates when I can get out and ride.

National Cycle makes excellent windscreens, I had their barn door model on my first gen:

I've heard good things about the V-Stream for the second gen FZ1. Enjoy

How did that work for you? I got one several years ago but returned it after one test ride. I guess I was just exactly the wrong height for that screen; the wind broke right around my ears and was louder than I experienced with the shorter stock windscreen.

I'd say it was good for my needs at the time but it certainly wasn't like you'd get from a Goldwing or FJR or something. I had a similar experience with the wind noise and turbulence but it wasn't really louder than stock. The real benefit for me was keeping the wind off my body during my winter commutes. The year I put it on we had a particularly cold winter and it was a salvation.
