Exactly! but this guy should add a jacket, button the bottom and keep the zipper open.DUGG wrote:Something like this?JamesPal wrote:JamesPal wrote: If you are riding in the wind blast, keeping the arms close together will reduce the sail (parachute) effect. Leaning forward will balance the weight on your wrists or the pull from the parachute effect. It is a bit of a balancing act. I have CB400F bars on my CB450K5. As long as I stay forward on the seat it is nearly perfect. The big choice is the fairing. I have a Windjammer V sitting on the shelf. I have also been looking at a Plexi windshield. I want to keep the weight down. THX

Curious,
With the Vetter fairing in place, how do you open the false tank side covers?

Re: Spring time refresh
All that I've seen with the Vetter had the pins removed from the cover hinge. Then you just unscrew what Honda calls the shelter latch, the knob, under the faux shelter lid. Then lift the side cover out.maury wrote:Curious,

The 1100 doesn’t have side cover on the false tank like the 1000.maury wrote:Curious,
