Wind is killing me

[bullant12]

with arntufun... When I have to ride the wife's RS (which is uncommon), I rather use my full helmet. I've ridden the RS with a half helmet and it does nothing but give me a headache.

I ride an 08 GS/RS and put the Madstad Robobracket system for the Can-Am Spyder RS.... Absolutely solved my wind issues... Riding last year on the highway at 95mph i'm as comfortable as I am at 25... its very adjustable in less than a minute. and I have 3 settings I've marked based on the riding im doing and it has been flawless.


I highly recommend it as I'm sure there are other windwhields as well, but this one works great for me. I'm 5'11"

Madstad Rocks!!! Look in to the light tinting it one shade darker then clear. helps with glare & good for night time also. Call Mark & he will set you up

still riding with the stock windshield! (and bob can verify it as he saw it on saturday) i thought the idea of an rs spyder was to have a little wind in your face?(when you're blowing by the rt's!!!)

The "wind in your face" seemed kind of focused on my RSS. I bought a full coverage helmet which solved the wind problem but it reduced side vision and gets too hot in the warm FL weather. So I cut 2 1/2" off the stock windshield and painted the inside black. That reduced the wind "focus" and buffetting. I wear an open face helmet and keep a flat shield in the trunk for rainy days. So far, so good..........Art

BTW I picked up a couple of Arthur Fulmer textile/leather jackets with zip-out linings and full zippered vents front and rear. These compare to the $450 Harley jackets, but less than $100 ea.. 80+ degs. with the vents open and never broke a sweat!

Oops! Double post......................my bad!

On my GS I have the 25" BRP touring one + the air deflectors which keep my knees out of the wind.

I tried the Givi screen but it was not big enough.

I've got this combo as well. Works very well. The air deflectors do a very good job. Much better than I imagined.
