Can anyone tell me where I can get a higher than standard screen for a BMW X Country? Thanks nwanetzi

Good morning, I would like to know whether there is anybody here who has fitted an Aerotrim screen extension to a Kappa screen on a 800GS. I have replaced the standard screen with a Kappa screen. On dirt there is no problem with buffeting or wind noise as the speeds are relatively low. However...

Have any of you lowered a 650 Xcountry? If so ,  what did you do and by how much was it lowered? It seems to me that the relatively low weight makes it quite a good bike for a female rider. If it can be lowered it would even be better. What do you think? Nwanetzi
