Hey Jar head, +6+4 flip, sounds like a barn door. I myself do not prefer the v-stream or the cal-sci so am settling for the rifle. It seems that with the tuning blocks it diverts air as opposed to pushing it. So in reality you dont hear the wind. I'm 5'8 with a corbin seat so I sit a little lower in the bike. I'm still looking for alternatives maybe try the mra vario lip on the yami screen. Almost like a permenant laminar lip, but with adjustability.
What bike was this installed on? 1st Gen? 2nd Gen? Hardley Electra Glide?
Ah, OK. So this is all on 2nd gens then.
Nope. You are right as rain. Well, except when it actually does rain. :blink:
I think that putting it all the way up in the rain will make the sun come out, and it will only rain on the cagers around you!
That's a great price, but alas it's not a flip shield. I personally would not buy one without the flip.
After all the advice and checking the sizing on the website I ordered the 2" flip in light grey. I will post the results soon!
When I ordered my C Bailey I didn't get the flip because I'd read here from some other riders that they thought it caused turbulence. Hmmm. Maybe I should get the flip with my next one. The one I have works great though. 3"+ high and 0 extra width. I ordered it 2" wider, but didn't get it back like that. I didn't notice till I'd had it on for a few weeks. Too late to send it back.
I understand where you are coming from. With the exception of riding my Dad's 92 Heritage I have never looked through a windshield directly except in the crouched position on my Ninja or GSXR etc. I have gone thousands of miles on my Dyna, 300 mile days about the max without any problems. For some reason this FJR just hits me in the wrong way that gets more miserable with each hour in the saddle. I talked to the "Flying Flea" from Arai helmets about it as I thought it was a helmet issue at first. You might just be tougher or the air hits you differently. Craig
