Good grief enough already.

 

Nobody stalking you, just pointing out your incessant bullshit, and name calling. You really think your posts are intelligent? Boy, are you delusional.

 

See I am not going to go there. I feel sorry for your mother. You know she surely wishes she threw you out instead of her placenta, the world would have been a better place. With that said I have never been in a gay bar but I might have to , to drag your *** out!

 

Where does one ride like that?

Also, if wind bothers an individual, I would say riding a motorcycle isn’t for them. It’s part of the process. Literally, people buy a bike with a fairing or windshield and still have issues with their hair blowing around? Try riding without which was the norm for decades. Have ridden many miles without one, and now I have an RGS, night and day…couldn’t ask for more. These bikes look like they’re fun to take a quick spin on and possibly a road trip. Compared to a Road series Harley, affordable. My .02

 

ENOUGH! Lay off of it. Take this thread back to motorcycle and lay off the personal attacks. Scroll right on by if you need to....

 

In 2021 I decided I wanted a Sport Glide. I ended up buying a 2021 with 250 miles on it for $17K. I am basically doing to it what you were thinking about doing. I have most of it blacked out already. I have an ST fairing to install on it and I'm going to big bore it to 120 ci. It is Gauntlet Gray Metallic, which I like much better than the Gunship Gray. When I'm finished I should still have less in it than what a new LSRST would have cost.




That is the "Sharknado" fairing. It looks good, but the one person I met that had one didn't seem to think the protection was very good and it is a fork mounted fairing. The Wedge fairing is a frame mounted fairing, but by the time you buy it, the mounting bracket and the windshield you're in it for about $2K, and that is without paint. I won't have that much in the ST fairing by the time I'm done installing it and that might include paint. Haven't gotten a price on that yet.

 

Literally nobody has a problem with that. We have a problem with the "buffeting" that a windshield can create. But it seems like many people have no idea what buffeting is, so I think a better term is "turbulence".

Ever been on a plane and suddenly it's slamming and jerking and banging around in the sky and you're getting beat up by it and the pilot apologizes for "turbulence"? THAT'S what we're bothered by. It isn't "wind in your face".

That is the very definition of "wind in your face", and it is a smooth, peaceful, blissful ride, with zero turbulence. It is 10,000 times better and more enjoyable than experiencing "buffeting" or turbulence. Only problem is it can be tiring for long distance at high speeds.

 

Absolutely. I own an adventure bike. Buffeting is a major problem with this style of bike, particularly as many adventure bikes these days are seriously high performance, like sports bikes on stilts and you're sitting bolt upright with no possibility of tucking in. I'd rather have clean wind blast than wind blast that's reduced but directed at my face so it smacks me round the head continuously. And then there's the thrumming noise. Go on any adventure bike forum for pretty much any brand and there'l be pages of posts on which screen works best.
Saying that, I've ridden a Pan American and it was pretty good in that department.

 

I laid off quite a while back there pardner...
