Let us know how it works.

Somehow I'd be more confident with a larger "Laminar Lip" windscreen that deflects the wind away from the rider rather than generating turbulence.  I'm not saying it won't work, but I'm a "doubting Thomas" on this one 'til someone we know has tried it.

Hm...I don't think thats that ugly, really. I'd consider one.
Richard died in a motorcycle accident that was at no fault of his own.  We lost a good friend and good member of this board.  Though Rich may be gone, his legacy will live on here.

Hmm, I think it looks lame, but at the same time, there should be a large chance that they actually spent time, effort and money to make it actually work. So.. yea, tell us how it works. I wonder if it works kinda, or as well as a large lip, or like they say: 5 inches of boost. .. what ever that means.
