Has anybody tried the Givi A620 windscreen on their SM?
Height and width look ideal for me, at 6' 2". Two concerns, tho...the windscreen may obscure the handlebar mounted front turn-signals and smoke color is the only windscreen option, and the windscreen fork mounts may not provide enough clearance from the fuel tank when the handlebars are fully turned in either direction. Too bad, because this looks like an excellent well-shaped screen.

I have narrowed my choices to the Givi A605 (same as A600, but clear color is available in A605), or the A620. By my measurements, with the windscreen correctly positioned running parallel to the forks, the top of the A620 would line up to the tip of my nose...so, that would be my first choice, but the fork mounts seem to leave very little clearance before they would contact the fuel tank, when handlebars are fully turned. There would be enough clearance if the fork mounts can be lowered 4 inches below the triple tree. That is what I am trying to get Givi to confirm for me before I place an order. As far as the turn signals, I could relocate them onto the forks below the headlamp. If it looks like too much work, I'll just simply go for the A605, and try and adjusted it the best for my height.

Here's a link to the A620:
