here's how it looks like! haha...cos my screen so darn tall still giving me turbulence. i'm guessing its the angle la...since k3 cant adjust like k4 onwards...and the vario looks so darn fugly on the k3...i was thinking maybe the double bubble might divert the air more upwards...

 

any advice?

 

Hi Aerosmith,

 

When I started riding the Wee, I suffered from occasional turbulence too. Lucky, there's a 'flap' on top of the wind screen which can be adjusted. By trial and error, i adjusted the height of the wind screen and angle of the flap until it fitted my riding height (I'm 1.65m short) without encountering any more turbulence. Attached pic of my wind screen for your reference.

speedjpop....sobz....mine is old version....different kind of shield. the mra vario has similar 'flap'....but the length of the screen itself is something like stock size....i think a singaporean vee rider got do the comparison in vsri...not very effective. :X...at least for the k3

Latest Addition to the prototype

http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg64/tank3e/1.jpg

 

All brackets will powder coated Matt Black!

The red block is a rod connecting between the brackets, to mainly make adjustment of the brackets easier. Secondary, is to also mount gadget.

 

Improvements:

 

1. More height adjustment

2. More angle adujustment

3. Hand rail for better comfort in adjustment.

3. Hand rail for mount of gadgets.

 

Interest or u have questions, feel free to PM me...! Will be in production very soon!

 

Taking orders REALLY soon!

Me faced no problem with either TX1 or TX2. Both with peaks and nose-guard. low-speed def no problem. >150 usually no problem either but kanna turblence a few times when riding over higher terrain or valley....got caught in cross-wind.

 

It got to do with the aerodynamic with our bike and the wind-screen setting. With current wind-screen setting, I always feel much cooler on my lower body than upper.
