G'day Karl and welcome. I'm very much looking forward to reading the blog of your ride—I just read the one about the BLue Ridge Parkway.
My CB1100 is without screen or fairing and mostly I find it very comfortable and don't suffer too much from buffeting. Except ... I do notice riding in the freeway with lots of traffic that there are occasional unpleasant buffets and gusts. My theory—and it is no more than that—is that traffic creates turbulence which affects motorcyclists. I therefore try not to ride too much on freeways with traffic.
Now, back to the blog.
