Good video

[@MacrossGarage]

Thank you

Nice video. Have you noticed any improvement? If i can keep wind from hitting the underside of my helmet, I'll be good to go. I ride with the windscreen off bc i am tall and that eliminated the buffetting but still loud.

It helps on straight wind. I also have the lower deflectors. But with winds that come from an angle or to side, it doesn’t help much.

[@jonlough3074]

Thank you for the reply! Wind is so difficult to manage.

[@MacrossGarage]

I agree and managing it usually compromises the aesthetics @@jonlough3074

@@MacrossGarage one thing i have noticed is that if i raise off the seat about 1 inch, the noise dies down as though i am standing straight up. I think that the gap created by me and the seat is somehow equalizing pressure or letting it escape. I need to make something to test the thoery. Maybe an oval shape or something to sit on that keeps that gap. My helmet is a shoei rf 1400 and it is super quiet when standing. I'll ride standing when the wind gets bad enough just to get a break from the noise.

Interesting, let me know what you find out.@@jonlough3074

What kind of windshield are you wearing?

With all these necessary deflectors, spoilers and crash protectors the air filter replacement should take max. 3 days 😑

[@MacrossGarage]

😂 I knew to change the air filters before I installed the engine guards.

Alors c'est efficace ces déflecteurs ?

[@MacrossGarage]

For straight on wind yes.
