Calsci screen

[zedmeister]

Thanks Debs.

Do you think that the front end being higher up allows more air up inside the screen rather than being forced up the outside?

I like the look of the screen and also have a lip but if that's the issue I won't be buying one.

The Calsci is wider at the bottom and narrower at the top.. This made a big difference, plus because of the hole in it, when the screen is fully up the wind comes through which I didn't like. Another thing I found that although it is about 3" taller I still had to have it up fully so I didn't get helmet buffering.

With my original & Laminar lip I can still see over the top and not get any buffering, and because its a lot wider it gives more protection..

Well thats what I think anyway. Ive now changed it back over

I prefer mine to be fully up as well, that way I get value for money, but looking at Deb's which has a hole I suspect even fully up other protection may be needed.

I like to be tucked right in behind so I can concentrate on riding, not having my head shaken all around the place.

Debs, could you not fill in the hole and see if that makes any difference to your wind problem?

Debs,

Is there something about the laminar lip/standard screen combo that made you go for the Calsci? I am thinking the lip is the perfect screen solution, so just wondering what negatives you experienced.

LMFAO... And what would you suggest?

No there isn't. I bought it off Nige as I was planning on moving to Canada and taking my original & laminar lip with me and selling the bike with the Calsci screen, but plans have now changed and Im not going.. I thought I woud try the screen to see if it was any better, but its not..

Well how about putting some gaffer tape across the hole, putting the screen in the upright position and taping the bottom up then take it for a ride, just see if there is any difference?

As for other suggestions I have loads.

Debs, unless you are 6'6" tall the XL Calsci is too big for you.
To be able to see over it you will have it lowered too far and then the airflow won't be right.
Did you follow the Calsci screen height calculation here?

Mine is a +6" over a stock 2008 which is a Large and I am 6'4" with a long back (32" inseam).
On a blustery day i sometimes wish it was a couple of inches taller but if I hunch slightly I get no buffeting whatsoever.
In the summer I tend to fit the OEM screen as it's too damned hot and I want all the airflow I can get.

There's an idea Deb's, maybe a double entendre would fill the hole.

Debs, I dont know how you put up with these cheeky young devils.

I already have a 'double entendre' and it fits just fine thx
