I have a full windscreen, wipers, the lot, but still get things in my eyes when driving with no helmet. Operative word: helmet.

I had the MAC#1 supplied fly screen, top is at eye height but it pushed almost all the wind up away from face.








Why do they call Port Harcourt "The Garden City"?...... Becauase they can't spell Stramash.

Second hand information tells me that Mac#1 may be similar in dimensions to MK. Might want to check that before getting into a full screen.

I had both of the Mac1 screens. Both great, but I guess would be useless if your head is way above them. Can you lower your seat or remove your neck?

If you are quite tall I would guess none of the aero screens would be any good for you.

I had the same fitted to my MK Indy and it worked a treat. I'm 5'10" and had my seats mounted directly to the floor. Perfectly OK up to about 70 mph with sunglasses on. That said, I still opted to wear a full face helmet 90% of the time. I just couldn't get past the worry of stones or large insects in the face. The helmet collected several such items over time as well.

I have the mac screen on my Indy. I had the factory MK one but it wasn't great in my opinion. The Mac 1 screen is much better and directs most airflow onto my forehead. Having said that I cannot get over 60 without wearing a helmet - it's loud, uncomfortable, and there is too much stuff on the road to hit you if you just wear shades.
