The bike has an after market windscreen that is a couple inches taller that stock, but still, all the usual
wind buffeting and noise. I tried a taller and wider aftermarket w/s and although some what better still didn't do the trick.
I went back to the 1st w/s and ordered the Laminar Lip. These guys are real pros, beautiful product, good instructions, easy online purchase. However, for my application, it is not the magic bullet either.
If I lean down just a bit lower than normal (where I comfortably hold my head) I enter the "quite zone" and no earplugs are needed which is great, but you can stay in that position forever . I truly hate ear plugs!
All in all, not bad in my situation but not what I was lead to believe. BUT, they have a lip for almost every w/s
out there and from other testimonials it can work wonders.
I give it a 6 out of 10 for my situation but the idea holds alot of promise.
What the motorcycle community needs is a Corbin Seats style remedy for high pitched sound and wind buffeting. Something that takes care of 75% of what the manufacture hasn't. Oh if I was a younger man.
There is a fortune to be made.
