I have the Puig deflector and different mirrors. I found the mirrors also made a big difference. I'm happy with the wind issue now.
:..what is the common fix for the front windscreen buffeting??..:

Go back to the FJR forum and quit following me kid! 
The OEM windshield does seem to be the weak link in an otherwise great bike. A bolt on deflector is a cheap and easy fix and a big improvement. I got the OEM touring screen from EU and that was even more better. I think the trick is to be patient and let the aftermarket catch up with the bike. Good to see you over here Hannabone

Aeroflow is now on the gsa. I made side extensions and hope they will make the beemer as good as the Norden with this combo. These are pics of the vstream. I cut out the top of the screen so I could look over the top. This combo worked well for me coming from Oregon. I rode a few hundred miles of the upper part of the Utah BRDR and then spent three days on I80 in the rain, traffic and 55 degree temps. This combo worked a lot better than I expected.

Wind buffeting and noise on Husqvarna 901 Norden - I was not really happy with the wind noise which was much worse on Norden than on majority bikes I have owned previously. Norden is very loud! So I started with modifications testing.
1) Replace the original handguards = little improvement.
2) Replace mickey mouse mirrors = little improvement.
3) Install higher windshield = wind pressure from helmet is gone, but it is still very laud! Why? Wind turbulence on the bottom sides of helmet. What to do?
4) Additional smartly designed side wind deflectors mounted on the windshield with reasonable discance to make wind flow smooth and quiet - see attached picture = huge improvement, different bike, wind buffeting and wind noise completly solved - it means Norden is very comfortable now, very quiet, something I would expect from long distance adventure tourer (note: reasonably quiet, it is till motorcycle, not Rolls-Royce).
For everybody who would like to try this solution, I will prepare the guide how to build and mout it on the standard husqvarna windshield or on the higher aliexpress windsheeld.

Guys, the main ingredients are modified (cut) Tenere 700 wind deflectors. In my design they are mounted to the windshield using three screws with plastic spacers and washers. It means you need to precisely position the additional windshields and drill three holes into main windshield. Tenere windshields already have two holes drilled, one needs to be drilled in addition. Because screws do not go through norden windshield in 90° angle, I measured different angle for every hole, you will need specific spacers and holders for nuts (I used 3D printer). Tomorrow I should have some time to provide better pictures how it fits and how it is mounted.
