Welcome from Italy!

Thanks for the info on wind management. I installed crash bar chaps and they helped keep the cold wind off the feet and legs. We haven't had a day to ride that hasn't been cold and windy, so I'm not sure how the windshield should perform on a calm day. I am installing a Memphis shades fairing with a 12 in gradient windshield in the morning. I'll let you know if it helps. Just wish we could skip winter and start summer over again! Lets ride.

welcome to the group from way up north....
