Ok i am in dire need for advise. I have installed the coney t-sport fairing one piece with 12" shield, Its all one piece made from fiberglass. The problem iam having is helmet buffeting. I have tried up and down the forks, and in and out on the fairing pitch with different variations in between.
The question is, who has had success with no buffeting at any speeds? Right now i have it all the way up and all the way our"pushed away from the bars" and its ok until over 70 MPH and wow i see quadruple. I also have the extra block for headlight relocation. I called conely and talked to the floor boss to which he told me its the nature of the beast. Just have to deal with it. Bullsh*t !!! Thinking about buying another Arlen Ness fairing and running that.
Probably windshield height. Raise it if you have buffeting. Also, air comes from beneath the fairing and between the gas tank. Next time you ride, put your hand around the front of the tank and feel the air stream.
I have the same fairing, I haven't had a lot of problems with buffeting, but there's a small amount. Since you can't just swap out the shield, consider something like the laminar style lip to stick onto the shield to increase the height and redirect the air up and over you. Might work...?
