Thanks Max. If you used the drill option could you locate the mount position lower on the windshield?
As much as I hate to admit it, that's one nice looking bike, Max.
Thanks for taking the time to review that product.
You are just admitting it now?? You have seen photos before... PLUS you have seen it in person!
This site is a wealth of information. Like many, I try to give back wherever I possibly can. It is great that there are so many cool and useful accessories for the Concours. One of the best things about Kawasaki keeping the model "stable" for many years. Had it not been for www.zggtr.org (and the defunct site we lost before this one), I would never have bought one.
I put another 60 cold miles on it today. Unfortunately, it doesn't really do what I had hoped, which is to get more air off my neck. It might be reducing back pressure some, hard to tell right now. I never had buffeting, so I can't address that. If I lean forward with or without the X-Creen, my problems go away. I sit tall, especially with the handlebar risers, and this puts me into a non-ideal, non-aerodynamic position.... but it is the position I need for my back and arms. I think I probably need a wider windshield for below 60F use- the high/side air streams are coming back together on me instead of behind me.
More experimentation needed.
A guy named Dave (Blackbird) actually drilled 6 I think 1" holes in the base of his windshield and said it was very effective. Might be worth thinking about.

Maxtog - how about some photo's of where you ended up setting it to get the least helmet noise and buffeting?
