@evomind Kuddos. I would’ve like that better, too! 😬

In good fun (sincerely); It’s assuming that *I* wouldn’t piss in the punch bowl? Cause, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t. 😬 Again, all in good fun. But if we’re just throwing out random thoughts about ourselves that have, theoretically, nothing to do with OP: I like my toast with only 1 side...

@evomind It's just a nice anecdote. Homeboy, AE is smiling and enjoying his day. I wouldn't piss in the punchbowl unless it's for a good reason...?

@nielsm I did; rolled them "up" away from me hoping to get a bit closer to, potentially, the cleaner air. I bought some risers (though, on this bike, they're more like pull back'ers, if you know what I mean) but I haven't installed them. Thinking step by step here, my trial runs of being...

@Poco23 Noted. Appreciate the suggestion. That, too, was my first attempt to solve the issue. I did not have as much luck as you, unfortunately. Gonna try the wind deflectors. Wish they were quick release, though. Was also thinking about adding a vent to one of the two windshields I now have. 🤔

I'll add: Memorial Day Sale still being supported @ Long Ride Shields. Lynx - Gold Series Acrylic Recurve Windshield - $112 for the 20" (Note the date should anyone see this post later...) F'it. That's a cheap enough entry point for me to try...I guess we'll just throw money at it and see if...

@MonsieurNiceGuy Appreciate you. Yeah, the reading so far has been a tad confusing as to what really helped. Not sure if it's the deflectors or the higher windshield. I tried adding the Puig "lip" thingy but I haven't found much relief. That leads me to think a taller shield may not be...

Howdy Folks - For me, maybe it's a body/posture-specific thing but goodness is the buffeting terrible on the Classic with the OEM windshield. Just at 600 miles - first service scheduled this week - but it shakes the eyes in my head...it's relatively dangerous. With the full face helmet closed...
