What do you mean for the speed and type of riding your doing? Von only has two throttle settings: idle and WFO. [smilie=b:

well this is what happend, left the hospital visiting a downed friend, and i tell my boy lets hit a classic run (about 35-40 mile around the beltway and thru various freeways and high ways MD VA DC) its 1230am tuesday night night so traffic should be good. anyway we hit it mediun hi speeds and i notice that the MRA shield is throwing a lil mor force toward my head, so i tuck even more. My head is still, but i feel way more force on my shoulders (wide as shoulders) i didnt like that and for some reason i can feel more air pulling behind my helmit. I have a joe rocket speed master (2004) with the hudge speed hump on the back. The jacket mad a real difference as far as wind goes with my old screen. Not this screen. but this is what made me diceide to ditch it. i was at 170+ and i did what was supose to be a real quick look back. the second i turned my head a inch to the right the force of the wind snatched my head all the way to the right and i had to ease off throttle to pull it back. I tryed this may times and it happend all the times i tryed to mildly turn my head in the hi speed sweepers, and lane change. aftowards i look at the screen and im guessing that with the narrow hi force of the screen, it is directing a concentrated amount of air in one spot vs the factory and LP DB that has the air spread across a wider spectrume. I guess. But it was hard to ride this bike fast (above 160mph) wit it. now under 160 it was love. immad because it is a top quality screen that looks like glass vs plastic, and they make 3 screens but this is the only DB. I hope i didnt fuck myself on the sale [smilie=b: http://www.mra.de/Marken/KAWASAKI/zx_10_'04-.htm http://www.mra.de/IMAGES/Modelle/Kawasaki/ZX10_04-R12.jpg

i was at 170+ and i did what was supose to be a real quick look back That's crazy. At that speed, I would certainly have my eyes on the road in front of me or use the mirrors. I know they're not the greatest! Why would you need to look back when going that fast?

I know they're not the greatest! Why would you need to look back when going that fast? 2 things 1. to make sure my boy on his (slow lol) R1 didnt have his front wheel to close to my back when i was changing lanes (just a quick flip look to the side/back). but when i did a nice down hill lefty sweepers i shift my arse and turn my head slightly the direction im going and thats the problem although its not much this shield really have a narrow stream and anything other than straight tuck rips your head around. trust me i have enuff highway and low traffic to turn my head for a second. ok ive really kiled the sale of this thing..shit i should just take the whole post out and place it in general lol
