Does anyone else have this problem? If so how did you solve it?
Somehow, wind pushes down on the visor of my Arai XD3. After a 100 miles or so it really starts to work on the back of my neck to the point I start getting headaches. I am presently on my 3rd windscreen (Yamaha, Yamaha Long, Parabellum) and none have made a significant difference. I noticed that if I sat back a little, the wind seemed to go away, so I installed some Rox Risers yesterday to push me back some. Its much more comfortable but I'm still getting the wind on my visor. I am going to move the Parabellum up to the high setting for the ride home and see how that works but after that I'm fresh out of ideas. I could get a Madstad, but I just paid to have a custom crossbar built so that would just be throwing money after money.
I love my XD3 and dont want to replace it. For 1, its relatively new mileage wise and 2, I paid a good chunk of change for it and 3 Its comfy and I like it. I ride with it on my windscreen-less thumper and have no problems. On my TDM and other bikes it works fine. I only get this problem on the Tenere.
Does anyone have advice that DOESNT involve replacing the helmet? If it keeps up I'll probably have to bite the bullet.
