Since I ride my bike daily to work, and I leave at 5am, the temps have been down to 32*F. That makes for a very nippy ride. I decided that I needed something to keep some of the wind off of me and make the ride a little more enjoyable. Yesterday I picked up a slipstreamer spitfire windscreen. Spent some time getting the angle right on the ride home from work, but finally settled on an angle that works for me without buffeting my helmet so bad that it blurs my vision. I'm pretty happy with it so far!
Woke up this morning to a chilly 35 degrees outside. Got the bike started, and started my commute to work. I can honestly say the screen made the difference in comfort. No longer is my chest and neck cold, even the tops of my thighs were reasonably warm. I would not have thought that small screen would do so much!
A lot less tiring too on long tours. My old KZ650 had low drag bars and a small 1/4 fairing (EMGO ?). Hard to do 160 kmh for long with higher bars. Knuckles drag on ground when getting off after long day in saddle.
