So many 'little' things to try
pps:It can be very frustrating, but like you said, more practice:agree: and try to remember to grip the seat more with your knees for stability instead of the handle bars:thumbup:
Curious, are you ryding with a full face helmet, 3/4, 1/2 or skidlid? As Mikie posted {I had the same problem with the wind .I fought the wind all the time ,when i was behind a truck it would blow me all over.My wife talked me into a new full face helment whith a full cover and a sun screen ,i could'nt beleive the differance the wind problem whent away ! the problem was not the spyder as much as it was blowing my head around causing me to move my body and arms!} maybe switching helmets might give you a little more relief as well:dontknow: Can't hurt to try, right?
One other option for you to try, and this is something another RT ryder told me about, and I didn't believe him til I tried it myself.
I usually only wear a baseball cap facing forward, so I feel every little bit of wind turbulence unlike when wearing a helmet, as a helmet does mask much of it from your head. So when my buddy recommended me removing the LOWER clear plastic wind deflectors, I thought he crazy as that was too low to effect anything up toward your head, right?:dontknow: I mean where they are placed, it would seem logical that they would effect wind turbulence around your hips, waist and maybe your torso, but not your head and neck:lecturef_smilie: All I can say, is its very easy for you to check this out for yourself, as its only 2 bolts on each one that holds them on. Undo the two bolts, and remove those wind deflectors and go for a ryde. If your wearing a helmet, you will only notice a marginal difference, but if your like me, wearing a baseball cap, the difference is astounding :clap:Just to claify, I'm referring to these that are directly below the mirrors on the RT
