| Are there good windscreen options that have some sort of ventilation for summer heat and better protection against winter cold? |

| Hey LDB,
I think the Givi AirFlow is the best for what you are looking for. You can lower the screen and get airflow, but also raise it to prevent airflow. I am a tall rider (6'5") and surprised how well it keeps air off me when it is at its highest position. I think it has something to do with the airflow design.
Here is RichG's pictorial on how to install to give you an idea: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/0cmjz9k1udiaxr8/iDCSxJz5hP
Good luck |

| I have had the stock screen, Givi screen, Clearview XL with vent, and the Givi Airflow and liked the Givi AF the best. It is the smoothest ride and works great. If the Clearview XL with vent didn't flex so bad at interstate speed it would have been a very nice screen too. They don't make the XL with the vent anymore though. I'm 6'0" tall so if you are shorter you just may like the Clearview L or smaller with the vent. The standard Givi will produce some back pressure and push the back of your helmet a bit which was uncomfortable for me.
But the Givi AF was the best screen I have had. |
