Try a bigger or smaller screen, or try varying the angle (and with it, the point where the air hits your body).
Other solutions are a small spoiler near the top of a windscreen, or leaving a (bigger) gap at the bottom.

Euromodder, are you saying that it is the wind causing your body to steer the bike erratically? Never thought of that possibility, might be why mine went away when I redesigned the wind screen. I just figured it was turbulence on the front end. So if this theory is correct then you should be able to test it by getting up to 70-80 till you start feeling the buffering, then get into a tuck and it should go away.
