[QUOTE="ossie, post: 43458, member: 118"] on my Vincent no screen you get all the wind and over the years you don,t notice it, on my diversion with screen taller than standard but not by much, you tend to get aching neck as your head gets most of the wind 'and its not comfortable trying to get down behind it. try doing 70 on your Vincent without moving the throttle just lie down on the tank [if you are not to embarrassed to do it] and watch the speed rise. mpg must be better as a screen is curved to go through the wind apposed to your arms out acting as a wind break deflecting the wind inwards like a parachute.
