I just bought a '95 Trophy 900. I am getting beaten by the wind, (mostly over 65mph) and was wondering if any one has a suggestion for a taller or better windscreen. I don't think there is one that can totally cut the wind off me, because I am 6' 8" tall. I have seen discussions on trophy windscreens on the forum, but none for the 95 and earlier. Any one have one that they prefer more than stock? Rifle, MRA, Gustafsson?

Go to the Gustafsson and get their highest and then add the high Laminar lip and your set to go as my son is way up there also and that combination works on his bike. The other thing we have added is forward pegs and helped a lot for stretching out long legs.

Thanks for the responce.
Do you have any pictures of the high Gustafsson? Does it shake under stress? Also tell me more about these "forward pegs".

Go to Hinkley Triumph Motorcycles Albums and then under Trophy albums you will find some of the photos of the original experiment we carried out to find suitable height and visability factor. No vibration problem up to 100mph but have not gone beyond that speed.
Have just checked Gustafsson site and they make a 27" with 7 hole for 95 model Trophys. With the extension to our 27" model we are at 30" height. However instaed of our extension the Laminar lip have a high model touring unit for Triumphs and you should gain 3 to 4" over the standard 27" unit.
