Default Need to divert wind!

I was looking into building a nnew "outerlimits gtx" style windshield for my Flame. I gave Lonnie some pictures I drew up and he likes the way it looks but I don't know if I would ever see it any time soon. Any ideas. I know someone posted some wind deflectors that Karl (the money man for Nordic) produces but I can't find them. I just wanted to get rid of the wind at 90.

You got to be careful, at moderate speeds you can take a beer bath. Thats OK when it real hot , but by the end of the day the wife won't want anything to do with you.

A larger windshield would be nice.

While it's not a permanent fix, I used windaways and loved them. It was the best accessory purchase I made for my Nordic (that and the box anchor). Some wind is ok, but it gets old real fast for me.

I have them already but I'm looking for something a little more substantial. I,ll see if I can get LIOPA to post pictures of the windshield I sent to Nordic. If they would build it ,it would be awesome. Most of us would want it I'm sure.

how fast can you go with windaway up? and how well do the work I have been in cats with similar set ups that work pretty well.

Who knows, I've seen tits go to the side from the wind factor. Of course, they were real ones.
