Who has had their windscreen crack?

Ok so I'm curious about folks that have had their windscreen crack on them. I've just had my second Givi crack from the same place as my first Burgman.
Do you have a standard 650 or an Exec 650?
2007 650
Was the windscreen stock or aftermarket?
Aftermarket
If aftermarket which one was it?
Clearview Lg. vented
Where did it crack/start from (as you would sit on the bike)?
From the left top bracket screw. It started very small (2") but over the past 2 seasons has spidered across to the opposite side.
The crack is diagonal so there are screws holding above and below the crack. The crack is low enough that I just used clear 2" tape and it's held fine for the past year.
Do you ride at speeds above 80 mph indicated frequently?
habitually.
So I'll start. My first Burgman a '03 standard model 650 with a bought new Givi cracked from the upper left mounting hole and rode above 80 mph fairly frequently.
My second Burgman a '09 standard model 650 with a second hand Givi just started cracking from the upper left mounting hole and rode above 80 mph fairly frequently.
