Road Comet Fairing

[ClassicVW_imp]

I'd like to add my experience with the Road Comet 1 I just installed.
BTW- I am 6'0" tall and wear a full face helmet.

Without it, at 60-65 MPH and higher, I was feeling a lot of heavy air on my chest and abdomen, so much so that I felt like it was pushing me off the bike and I was struggling to stay in one place. My helmet was not bothered by this.

With the fairing, the air now hits me across my collarbone area. I'm not thrilled about this, but one plus is the fact that the air is hitting right where my riding suit has zipper openings for cooling. Still fairly solid, but I don't feel like I'm being pushed backwards. My helmet is still for the most part, unaffected, but I do feel a bit of a breeze coming up under my helmet. Nothing bothersome, it's not buffeting me, and it does keep me cooler too. What I do notice is whatever air is coming up that way is making me hear it, my helmet suddenly got louder. Nothing some earplugs won't fix, but it was much quieter before the fairing went on.

All in all, I very much like the look, but I don't know just yet if it'll make highway touring all that much more enjoyable. I think the wind screen being angled back so much and is so close to your body, that a taller screen may not be better, it'll bring the top of the screen even closer to your chest.
