Road warrior fairing install

the adjustment it really relative to the headlight positioning. I would say there is no adjustment unless you ran a different headlight extension block
here is a video of the completed install.
Can someone link this video. I'm not doing well with my phone. Can't link the actual video as a clickable link

So went for a ride today
the bad- fairing has a little flex to it under multi direction wind. So the windscreen moves around a little. Sort of dances in the wind instead of being a rigid plank Maybe that's not a bad thing as I have not ridden a fairing set up. But I would like it to stay totally still as I go
the good - blocks wind great. Also doesn't seem to slow the bike down to much. With a small fairing you cut right through the air, so I expected to feel resistance while riding. There is some. But not bad at all
questions- So I tried a 3/4 helmet today with face mask. My sunglasses has no movment or buffeting I do feel wind pressure on my helmet but not in a buffeting way so maybe I'm just not used to the feeling of riding with a fairing
I need to buy a full face helmet as mine is toast. Once I do we will see if there is any buffeting as I will have a much larger head shape
previously with all fairings I tried, I had instant buffeting and felt nauseous. Today was different and I hope once getting a full face I will not have buffeting again
so to recap - I think it works great and I need to do a little tweaking on helmets / glasses to see what options I have that do not crest buffeting. I did not get buffeting today, but still wondering if I will when I'm in my full face with yet set up
