OK Big news. I massaged my windscreen mod so that the screen tilted back more then stock. Quite a bit really. Anyway not much change overall with the stock screen then the parallel mod. Maybe a little less getting knocked around on the highway in dirty air. And a little noisier for whatever reason. Not much of an improvement.
This AM I switched to my Clearview GT small that I wasn't using because it made a screaming noise at speed. Stuffing my hand down the center in front of the dashboard stopped it, so I had hopes the windscreen mod would help that situation. It did. And blasting down the pike this AM through semi trucks and what have you, revealed a wonderful thing! NO getting knocked around. NO noise with it up. Bloody miraculous.
So, I figure the leaned back screen must add some down force to the equation, along with better aerodynamics. Still have the quick steering but she seems to hold her line fine now. And this with the top box on.
I added a little compound bending to the brackets I made, to make everything line up. No stress on the mechanism now, thou there has to be some additional leverage over stock.
So a change in aerodynamics DID do it for me. I'm so pleased!! AND I didn't piss my money away on that clearview like I though I had. That doesn't suck either!
Oh..And I noticed NO back pressure at all. None.
