I have a new 2020 1250R and recently installed a Cal Sci tall screen that allows me to look roughly 2" over the top edge. I'm 5'9 with 28/29" inseams. I drove about 60 miles home after the install and was struck with the insanely loud wind buffeting....to the extent my ears rang for 2 days and I wore custom ear plugs. I wear an Aria helmet. The bike was quieter naked but tough on the neck muscles at 70 mph.
I really want to tour with this bike and need /ask for feedback from anyone who has experienced a similar experience and how you may have solved for it. Other experiences and wisdom with other screens? Z Technik tall V Streams? Schuberth Helmets?
I've owned 9 other bikes and 4 other BMW's. RT was the best! The current helmet wind / noise buffet is the worst I've ever experienced. I'll lose my hearing at this level let alone enjoy a day in the saddle.
Always appreciate the BMW family of like minded great people.
Kind Regards, Doug from Kansas
