Does the glare from the lights distract the rider? Have you installed the windvest yet? Does it work for the rider? I rode Sunday afternoon into the evening. I turned around after six miles and came back to put on the windshield because it was so windy I felt like a drag-chute slowing down the bike. I HATE THE LOOKS OF THE BIG WINDSHIELD ON THE V!!! BUT you can't hardly ride long distances without it unless you want to be windburned and beat up from the ride. I'm convinced the reason crotchrockets are designed to lay down and ride is to keep the rider from being blown off the bike! In high winds, its all I can do to hold on to the V at speeds above 80mph. Yet, I find myself riding faster because I want to hurry up and get home with the wind is throwing me around like a rag doll! Not a good (safe) game plan!!!
I like the sport-shield. I guess I could learn to ride the Vrod like a GXXR....
