IIRC there were some sort of wind deflectors that mounted either on the forks or fairing or on the frame....I dont recall where it mounted, but it was supposed to help with the turbulent air that works its way up from under the bat-wing fairing. As for a RK.....well I aint too sure.....but start looking for a wind deflector.

If ya look at Golfblues pic I think he has deflectors on his forks. J&P cycles carry them I believe and they should help with the problem.....although I think the staple idea has merit and would look a lot meaner than just a big tatoo unless ya hit your voice box and then you would order a beer like you just took a big hit of helium.

If you have to, or choose to, wear a lid, tuck it under the chin strap. That's what I do with mine!

Cheers!

How about wheel bearing grease, the blue stuff that Harley sells.
