Has to be said it was noticeably better regarding wind noise and head bobble was less evident, although obviously my chest was getting more of a hit. The usual wind roar (with ear plugs rammed in) was replaced by a whoosh/whistle. My helmet is cack though (don't buy a Nolan N90 flip!!) so will be replaced at some stage with another piece of pure guess work which will hopefully be better![]()
Just grabbed a standard screen off fleabay so hopefully my motorway slogs will improve in the near future.
Just to follow up on this, had my first M/Way ride with the standard screen this morning, cold, very windy conditions. The screen was fecking awful!! Could barely get over 70 without being in genuine pain, so coupled with heavy traffic, riding through cloud over the top of the 62 and being blown all over the shop I really have to say I didn't enjoy the experience today. Oh well back to the DB and the dawning of the idea that the Fazer just isn't cut out for M/WaysÂ

Cheers,
