My awesome windshield from Thailand! - Page 6

woodlandsprite · 01-25-2016, 12:20 AM

Not sure if I was just in the bad air path behind a semi.... I definitely felt like wind kept catching at my helmet. There is a stretch of non-freeway road that I ride that sees mostly passenger vehicle traffic at about 60mph. I did not notice as much wind/air pressure on that road as on the freeway...though I definitely tend to feel wind catching my helmet on that road too. I wear a standard full face helmet.

You were definitely feeling the wind turbulence caused by the tractor trailer. Those big rigs move a lot of air, and will always bounce you around.

I don't feel any turbulence with the stock windshield while riding at high speeds on the freeway.

Sprite, that does sound like turbulence from the semi. The tall windshield probably won't help much with that. But for my height at 5'10" the steady airflow at 70+ mph now goes over my head. It's much quieter now.

I might have to consider the taller windscreen just for that

- high speed riding defintely seems noisy and I definitely feel it catching my helmet

Received my shield and risers today! Should bolt them on in the next day or two. Things are definitely coming together

That looks like a well made and designed unit. Better than most OEM.

I'm always surprised when it comes to windshields how diverse the opinions are
With regard to buffeting,protection ect.
I personally think the stock screen works surprisingly well for the speeds this bike sees.
I am 6'2" and also like the integrity and stiffness of the 6 screw mount.

SpudRider · 01-26-2016, 01:18 PM

I agree. I like Yoo's windshield, and I might get one in the future. It is certainly easy to repeatedly swap windshields on the RX3 for different riding conditions. Nevertheless, I am very pleased with the performance and robust mounting of the stock windshield, and I haven't noticed any shortcomings with it.

Yoo, will the stock CSC bar height work with your windshield or do I need to run the risers?

You will also need the risers to clear the larger windscreen
