LRS/wind

I took the bike for a ride today after putting on the 8" LRS recurve. Reduced about 80% of the buffeting. I think there is no way to get rid of all of it. But it was so much better. I also have the fork baffle which I have decided is pretty much useless. I do not have the fairing wings yet. Wonder if they'll help some. But as is, much better ride.

I did add the fairing deflectors early in my quest to solve the buffetting and they do help a bit but I agree that I don't believe it's possible to elminate it all together. My setup now is the best I've had so far.

I have the 9in LRS recurve, the fork baffles and Sancho wings. For the most part the buffetting is gone, maybe 95%. When I do notice more buffetting is when there are strong winds.
