I know that we all have our favorite windscreens/farings.
While visiting with another BMWMOA member, my friend made the comment that his bike behaves so much better without the BMW factory touring shield on his R1100RL.
That started a conversation about aerodynamics which is something that I know very little about.
Does anyone know of a site that shows the air flows of different screens ala the current Xerox commercial which uses smoke blowing over and around a Ducati at just under the speed of light?
Come to think about it, doesn't the head and body of the rider affect the overall flow?
Any ultra-lite or biplane pilots out there?
