R1250R wind screen input ?

Have a 2019 R1250R . I am looking to put a better wind screen on. I looked at Puig next generation but that did not work .
So some suggestions please ,( I am 5'7" )
Thanks
 
I tried the Puig and the V-Stream sport touring. Both produced a lot of buffeting even with an extra Puig deflector added. I went back to the oem high shield which works well enough. I'm 5'11.

What was wrong with the Puig?

I have the BMW Tall screen and I get a lot of buffeting
 
I have the 2016 R, which came with a VStream full touring shield.

I cut it down and added a CalSci style vent just above the gauges. Removed a little over 7" from the top and added a little curve. It's either about the same height or a tad shorter than the VStream Sport now, and although noisier than full naked I don't notice buffeting. The wind hits at about eye level, and I'm 5'10".

Edit: Note that the Sport screen has less side protection if that is a factor for you. I was just working with what I had, and wasn't able to sell the full tour screen.

How did you cut the screen ?
