Anything I can do to reduce the turbulence I'm feeling above 80 miles an hour?

So at high speeds (which we drive at here in california) theres a slight fork/frontend wobble/and the cowl is turbulent...

I'm doing research through old threads but havent seen anything related to this. I'd love some advice on how to smooth her out.

Bike: 05 955I w/100,000 miles, looking at doing 900,000 more.

You haven't been looking very hard must be more posts on here about wind turbulence off the screen than any other subject,i'm One of the lucky ones that loves the stock screen but their ain't many.

I just got the MRA vario screen - I'll report back when I've  done some miles.

Recently I swapped out the fork innards for progressive fork springs and Gold Cartridge Emulators - the weave has gone.

I have a MRA Vario which is very good, a Palmer which is better, but the single best thing I did to help get rid of turbulence was to replace the stock mirrors with streamlined ones.
