The mid frame deflectors work OK, better than not having them.
I think the best comfort against the heat though are my hydration vest & bandanas. It's the norm to ride in 110+ temps here in So. AZ, those items make a big difference for me. Important to stay hydrated too- drink plenty of water.

Ok we need everyone to verify their expiration date on their man cards. Grow a bigger pair. To hot...to cold, my hair gets tangled in the wind. Actually (reaching over to ****** man card away) SWIFT kick in the arss... Get the hell out of here. lol
In the cages they have AC, and heat to accommodate you on those long trips.

I'm quickly finding out that the Wards fan I just got is not only cooling the engine down,but as a result (with thermo switch) greatly reduces the heat radiated off the fuel tank and surroundings...=making stops and not sitting on a "stove burner".
