    I've read the various reviews- I'm happy with the stock screen when riding solo. However when my wife is pillion and the top box (case) is fitted I find my head weaves/ bobs from side to side at motorway/freeway speeds.

    I am looking for a screen that prevents this as I find its very tiring on longer trips. The standard screen is fine for solo use as I find it keeps the weight off my wrists. I'm 5'9"

    Any suggestions ...:crazy:

    Your best bet may not be a new screen... I experienced the same symtoms on a previous bike with a nolan helmet. When I bought a new helmet (shoei RF 1000) these symptoms completely vanished. helmet aerodynamics can make a huge difference, my sugestion is to try to borrow some of your riding buddies helmets of various types and see if it makes a difference. If this does not solve the problem zero gravity double bubble or givi st screens seem to be popular choices. I myself am 5'10" and have the ZG double bubble on a 5th gen and couldent be happier with shoei or ZG quality and effectiveness.
