On another note - crosswinds are putting a crease right across the logo of my HD jacket..........anyone have a fix for that? LOL
Ride backwards.

You will need to add a reverse gear though. This will solve all your problems.

Move the faring to the rear of the bike. Will probably need to make a special bracket to mount it on the tour pAk but when done it will keep most of the bugs off it.

I mount a bug whistle right next to my deer whistle. Seems to do the trick

I keep a spray bottle full of crisco in the garage. A few coats before each ride keeps the bugs off.

I did come out of the store once and a dog was licking the front of my bike tho...
