The Madstad Engineering adjustable windscreen has been installed. Expect a better write-up and more pics soon.
I have included the final pics of the install, this is the windscreen in the near highest position, but not as upright as it could be. This thing has an unlimited combination of adjustments you can make, so I'm going to be playing with it over the next few days, with low, high, low/high rake and see what I can do.
In the current position (near highest) with a bit or rake and pulled away from the base plate, the wind noise is almost non-existent! Air flows over my helment and around me at 65 mph. When I feel the airflow coming from under the windscreen, it's only about 2" deep and clings to the inside of the windscreen and then up and reconnects with the main airflow coming off the front of the windscreen. Very cool. No turbulence at all inside the protected area.
Worth the money. I might have gone with the taller windscreen so that I could keep the screen lower as some air gets under the windscreen when in it's highest position (around the sides as the FZ6R is so narrow), so with the taller one, I could leave it a bit lower and solve that.
I opted for the smoke color and in the highest position, there is no visibility issue as you still look over the windscreen.
More to come.
