£1.99 aeroscreen
Made a simple aeroscreen today from a bmw motorbike front screen. Total cost £1.99
Completely changes the driving experience in the car. Before I found it hard to see over 20mph with just my glasses on as my eyes started to water.
With a helmet on at 70+ I could feel the air flow trying to lift my helmet if I raised my head or turned sideways a little.
Now I can pop about at 40mph with just my glasses and at high speed with the helmet on I can feel the air flow hitting the top of the helmet and
pushing down slightly, + I can have my visor part open.
Very pleased wit it as I could not afford to bu a proper aeroscreen.
Paul

Looks nice and tidy Paul, i have noticed a few people of late going down this line and i quite like the idea of having two defletors, what would be
the best bike deflector for this job.

Looks a treat that, couldn't buy better purpose built. Perhaps an oportunity for someone to source the part from the manufacturer and flog them
on to the rest of us...?

Nice aero screens, and you saved money by using a cardboard scuttle too. Uncle Ron would be proud.
Before you judge a guy, walk a mile in his shoes. Then when you judge him, you're a mile a way and you've nicked his shoes.

nice one 
it it surprising how much air get deflected - you can drive along and stick your arm out to feel the force of the air so can find out where the
envelope is.
