There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I have the one that is 3" wider on each side. Works perfect because it also knocks the wind off my shoulders.

Thanks for the suggestion and nice illustration. At this fall's Spyders in the Smokies, your crew installed the two lower wings, as pictured.
I'm ordering the wide,vented F4 wins=dshield, next.
Please take a look at our air wings, you will find them a big help with both problems and find they work great in both hot and cold weather.

Incorrect helmet fit
Thanks for the suggestion, Peter.
The helmet does happen to be new, but she's pretty picky about how well her lids fit, and hates drafts up from underneath.
Maybe the next opportunity to ride in the rain, we'll dig out the previous helmet, which did not have any issues on a variety of different motorcycles in all sorts of weather. If her head stays dry in it, tghen we'll know the answer. Aerodynamics is peculiar stuff.

i dunno, I reckon the bit above is the clue!!
motoswami, are you sure her helmet isn't just too big??? It wasn't a new helmet to go with the Spyder was it?? :sour:
If her helmet fits properly, it shouldn't be free to move around on her head at all, let alone be loose enough anywhere to let any drafts (or rain) in!! But if it's too big or too loose a fit/the wrong shape for her head, even by just a little, the airflow that hasta happen when you are out in the breeze like you are on one of these things regardless of how well the windscreen works, will catch the air more than it should, make the helmet move some, & as a result make it almost impossible for her to hold her head still as well as let the drafts & rain in around the edges!! :yikes:
I'd be trying to see if a better suited &/or better fitting helmet fixes the problem before doing anything to the windscreen.
