I was talking to Shiney on Sunday at Lake Moogerah about the screen on my ST1300 which I transfered from my old 2002 ST1300
I think it is a California Scientific screen. I think they are excellent.
When I bought my new ST1300 I went for my first ride with the standard screen on and wondered why it is so noisy then I realised
"The Windscreen" As I was given the standard screen when I purchased the '02 I swapped them over. "Great"
They have two vents cut in the bottom to minimum noise, Turbulence &  back preasure :thumb
I think mine must be the X/Large but I only put it up far enough so that I can still look over the screen.

Only get a little water through the vents in the bottom of the screen, because air is sucked up inside next to the screen. And water doesn't get on the inside of the screen either. I have never had a problem. And the best thing is you don't have to wear ear plugs

Calsci screens seem to get good reports. The vents are sort of similar to the ST11 cat eyes, but the ST13 seems to have more air flow from the base of the screen.  Its all about air flow management, which the calsci website explains.
