Zitat von M3M im Beitrag #120 it's a very significant factor as a friend found when he was commissioned to do some research - Dr Mike Carley at Bath University https://people.bath.ac.uk/ensmjc/Research/helmets.pdf Mind you, he's not so bright at times. He once went to a truck stop in France and could not find the Sans Plomb 95 (unleaded 95 RON petrol) pump. So he used the one that was definitely not Gazole (diesel). He stuck 20 litres of kerosene into his Honda ST1100. It became quite poorly and was forever know as the Paraffin Pan. French truck stops do not have petrol... |

Zitat von wessie im Beitrag #121Zitat von M3M im Beitrag #120 Excellent. The papers by Kennedy, Carley, etc were a great series. I've exchanged emails with Dr. Kennedy on the work.

AeroFlow screens were mentioned earlier on in this. They are not available outside of the US unless you pay a prohibitive transportation cost and then get hit by a duty ( so that’s not going to happen). My question would be. Has any of our members on the US side of the pond used one of their screens on an RS? They appear to be the only screen with a curve to deflect the airflow. |

I HAVE INSTALLED A MEDIUM SIZED Z TECHNIK VSTREAM WINDSHIELD AND IT HAS WORKED FINE FOR ME. ITS ALOT QUIETER THAN STOCK. I AM 1,70 CM AND IN THE UP OISITIN I SEE OVER THE SCREEN CLEARLY AND CAN GAVE MY FLIP TOP OPEN , NO WORRIES. EVEN IN THE LOWER POSITION I AM FINE AS FAR AS WIND ROTECTION IS CONCERNED. NOISE LEVELS ARE ACCEPTABLE AS WELL. |
