you know a few years back i was getting this on my street glide but only when i wore a full face.
aside from that, i was at my pal roger's shop looking at one of his race bikes months ago. i was checking out the fairing and rider position and noticed a "slot" in the screen just above the fairing. i asked him about it and he said it relieved the buffeting he got at high speeds (200mph kinda speed).
i am guessing that the void in air pressure behind the fairing causes that bobble head effect maybe? i will have to talk with him about it a bit more but food for thought perhaps.

Could you use any photos of my pics and use paint or Photoshop to position a slot so I can understand better. Im thinking of a picture with someone smiling and a tooth is missing from the top row??

i will try for sure. never used photo shop before. i am also trying to get an actual photo of the bike i am talking about from my pal roger. i have some pics but they are too small to see the slot.
the slot is like an 1/8" if even that big and about 3-4" long about 1" above fairing. here is a shot of the bike but it's too small to make heads or tails of it.
i will post a pic when i get more
