I'm sure some of you also have the problem with your mirrors or front brake reservoir hitting your screen on semi to full turn? What's the best work around for this?

I have a vario touring screen.

You could cut a curve into your screen where the bars make contact. Just enough to clear them. Just one option.

Put a plate close to your right peg or that header is gonna melt your pants when you put your feet down.
