Bob,
Very intersting!
Did you have a windshield on your bike before installing the fairing?
Just wondering if I could expect the same results if I switched out my windsield for a fairing.

Yes had windshield on bike had the 22'' ,18;;, and 14'' Fairing is way different my wife likes it as much as me ,if not more and half the time I leave the radio off We just don't get beat around as much by wind with fairing ,and this makes it a lot easyer on the body the recopying time after long ride is way quicker, it is just a nicer ride for us and before I got this I had never rode a bike with a fairing on it Man I should of''''' [my two cent ] I'm glad I did it invested the money for a fairing
