Do tank bags disrupt airflow into the air filter?

No, they sit above and behind the opening, but it looks closer than it is.

I'm not sure if I'd listen to Etennuly's opinion as to the effect of what does or does not block wind flow.

Hells yeah!

Brad1445, meet Big Ass Windshield.

Big Ass Windshield, meet every bug in a four state area.

I think the scariest part is when you apply the binders and slam your face into the edge of it.

Remember that there are no stupid questions, but there are a lot of inquisitive idiots!

No disruption from the tankbag...it even gives you a place to rest the chin bar on the helmet on long boring slab runs.

And where did Big Ass Windshield come from?
In fact I've yet to find where any of the big windshields could be ordered from. Definitely not my dealer.


One inquisitive idiot!

Etennuly made it. He wanted something for cold winter riding.

Definitely blocks the air.

I also had no sensation of wind, speed, being on a motorcycle.

Should we all pitch in and start an Electric Vest Fund for Etennuly?

I mean, come on, it's kind of embarrassing.

Friends don't let friend ride BAWS.

It is a bit tooooo big for me but after riding coast to coast and back last year I became a bit jealous of my friends with real windshields.
