I implemented a simpler and cheaper solution on my GT. I made two brackets that raised the standard "flyscreen" to a more upright position like the Tigers all have, so that the screen is at the same angle as the forks. I made the brackets out of 2mm sheet aluminium so it was easy to work with, and painted the them to match the bike. Almost no-one ever notices they are there because they look like they came from the factory.

In reality though, the screen punches a big enough hole in the air so it goes around the rider, or over the head. I'm 6ft, and there is no buffeting up to 75-80mph,giving a nice quiet ride most of the time. I have a template I can share, produced in CAD (Cardboard Aided Design 🤣) 😎
What a cool solution! I would be very happy to try it out to solve my current wind buffeting problem. Would you mind sharing your template with me?
