Default Tsport fairing wind from under fairing?

So im new to having a fairing and went with the jd fabs tsport woth a 15inch shield. Something that is bothering me is the wind coming up from under the fairing. It lifts my vest so that it is floating up to my chin and neck. I have tried multiple vests and it does it with all of them. Its really annoying. Anyone else experience this? Thanks.

Haha i did lose a few pounds but not much. Tighter vest makes sense i guess. Although mine isnt overly loose, just enough to fit a hoody under it. It does it much less when i have the hoodie on under the vest. But with just a t shirt its a pain in the ***. Started right after i installed the fairing.

Try this. You have to bend it for it to fit the Dyna. No big deal. Ill post pics of mine tomorrow if you like.

Yes, it's coming up over your tank. I have "lowers" which solve that issue.

Memphis Shades Lowers Mount Kit. I used these with clear lexan shields. You can buy the memphis shades lexan, or pick up some at a hardward store on the cheap. Cut them how you want them. Go large so you can trim them down. Hard to add material if cut too small.

Just mess with the fairing mount a bit. Move it up or down or closer to that bottom triple tree.
