So, I'm prepping for a decent ride this upcoming weekend to get out of the heat. (Stay tuned for that....4 days...25 mountain passes....2 14ers....and the highest continuous paved road in the US) My friend joining me will be on his BMW S1000XR.
I just happened across this old windscreen I put on my SV1000 about 10 years ago for just such a trip. It's the National Cycle F-16. Not my cup o' tea for everyday use. However, it's going to fit the bill for this trip. It takes the wind off of my torso. And (I think) because of the gap between the headlight and the screen, I get a nice little puff of air up on my chin. I removed the little OEM fly screen, bolted it to the sides of the headlight, and bent a little bracket from 1" aluminum bar stock.
Then I picked up the Ram X-mount for my phone so I can see the GPS to guide me through all these spots. These two things and a strapped on duffel should be enough to make this manageable.
