OK, the project bike is done and she is beautiful. Did 100 miles over the weekend, and observed that the heat escaping thru the fairing on the right side of the bike against my leg was pretty hot.
And it wasn't hot this weekend in Chicago.
I understand that the perfect adjustment of the fairing is key and I am replacing the trim gasket that is against the tank, but the worst of the heat is escaping against my ankle - and naturally I'm wearing boots and jeans.
Is there a fix out there? I'm wondering of I were to pad the bottom the the fairing below/behind the fairing vent with fiberglass insulation if that would work?
Anyone else been down this path?
