Hello friends,
Â
i recently came from 1300km trip (from Slovakia to Slovenia) and been sadly depressed from amount of wind buffeting and turbulences i get during ride. Up to 120kmh its quite "acceptable", but anything above its nightmare. During 120kmh+ speed on highway i felt like been banging head against wall, strong vibrations, blurred vision due this. And noise.... noise absolutely at top of the ranks. Cannot hear anything, even with motorcycle earplugs have a huge amount of noise. My height is 185cm.
Â
When i bought the bike, there was touring wind screen.... it was disaster - punches to the head from 60kmh to all above. So i bought original one, it was much improved, but everything i described above is still there. I tried 17cm deflector added on touring and original windscreen - same, but different result, but always same. With original windscreen have wind coming on my shoulders and jaw, if i straight my back and neck, i got release of some turbulences and if i stand on bike, there is basically everything solved.Â
Â
How can i reach peace with my bike ? Do you have any tips ? I really really enjoyed all trips together, but after this one my heart is broken and my body is tired. It reached the point i will propably sell the bike due this, because i cannot hear even intercom and speak with my friends, nor enjoy the ride.Â
Â
Thanks for any tipsÂ
