It's a constant quandary for meI so strongly agree with this discussion !
Feeling the wind is a huge part of the fun / character of riding a motorcycle (on the road) for me.
I think folk often do lose sight of this. I’ve got a mate who’s obsessed with fitting screens to everything he buys. More often than not they actually make things worse as the wind noises and buffeting is worse than simply riding through the ‘clean air’ without a screen.
Of course fairings and screens have a place, but so does riding without !
I don't like fairings or screens unless it's a classic race fairing
But with a neck injury I find it very hard to maintain high speeds without a screen
So both my trident and commando have fly screens but not my BMW bobber or my A10 and no plans to fit one as yet
