    Hello members,
    I have a MRA double bubble screen on my 2000 VFR. Does not deflect the wind over my helmet (I'm 1m70 or about 5'6"), I was wondering if a deflector/spoiler can be mounted over the curve of the screen. Any info is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    I don't think I've ever seen a deflector mounted on a double bubble, but I'm betting someone has taken one off a touring screen and tried it somewhere.

    I'm 6'2" and never found anything to get my head under the turbulence, so I went back to OEM screens which lets the turbulent air hit my upper chest. However, I've ridden with some guys about your height that had some sort of double bubble screens on their 5th gens that they liked. I haven't talked to them in a long time, but I will try to reach out and see what model screens they had.

    If your double bubble has the opening at the bottom like an OEM screen to let some air under it, stuff a rag between the dash and screen to temporarily seal it off and see if it affects where the turbulence hits you. If you can get the bulk of the turbulence moved away from the bottom of your helmet in either direction, it will make it considerably quieter.

    Hi tbzep,
    my MRA double bubble has the openning at the bottom like the original screen (which I don't have since I bought 2nd hand). I will try your suggestion.
    Thank you for the feedback.
    Ride safe

    Don't expect a miracle, but it may move the worst of the flow an inch or two. I just can't remember if it was up or down. It could make it worse.
