little vent holes in windshield

[StanProff]

Alright all you gruru's :bowdown: On the 2013 RT's you will find the windshield cut out matching the holes in the alum. windshield brackets. Both sides have a nice cutout, If this serves any good function I will take the dremal tool to mine, I cut the windshield down to fit me so it is not a big deal to cutout these holes to match the 2013 stock machines. Would it reduce Buffetting maybe, although I haven't noticed a lot of that on mine. (maybe because I cut 4 inches off the windshield) :yikes:.(this little suprise face is what my wife done when she walked into the garage and I was hovering over the Spyder with the Jig saw). She turned and ran.

I've also been keeping an eye on those new windshields in the accessory catalog...:thumbup:
Since I've added the Elkas; the decision will come down to which height model I need...

These little holes down at the alum. brackets are standard on the 2013 Rt windshields, all new RT's have these holes in them.. This is not the optional "vented" windshield. :dontknow::dontknow::dontknow:

Well, I'll pose the question again about the standard holes in the windshield of the 2013 RT's . what is the benifit of these? I can't find any comments about them in the factory literature. As I mentioned in my first post, if they are a benifit, it would be easy for us to modify ours with a gig saw or dremel tool.

It DOES seem like an easy modification to make...
If you've got the tools and talent anyway! :shocked:

As soon as I find out if it helps anything, I'll cut mine out and take a picture of it. It must help with the air flow from under the windshield. It would bust up the air stream that comes up under the windshield and in turn may smooth out the air a little.:dontknow: I guess Lamont can fill us in.
