Yesterday I mounted the OEM windshield that I have for years now, but only used it once and took it off...
As concerned doing long distances and high speed : then the shield is perfect. I went to the maximum of my girl and she did 195 km/h = 122 mph. When I did this without windshield I could get 10km harder, but only for seconds because of the windpressure on your head and body. With a windshield you can definitely drive as long as you wish at higher speed.
BUT WHAT CONCERNS ME IS THE NOICE THAT YOU GET WITH THAT SHIELD: I hear the noises coming from my front tire - with certain types of road it is hughe what kind of sounds you get.
Then there is the sound of the timing belts, without the shield I also hear them wirling - most of the noice at 2200 till 3000rpm, but with the OEM windshield mounted it really is too much noise of them, it is as they are wirling just beside my head.
I read in the manual that with cold motor you have to have between 5 and 7mm free play when applying 2kg of force on the belt. Years agao when I have put the 6° TW I remember that afterwards I had effectively more wirling of those belts, but I mounted them like Honda says...
Do I have to tighten them more or what should I do?
Applying a force of 2kg. is not evident - 2kg is not much I find, if you push good in the middle of the belt and you obtain 5mm. - should this not be also O.K. (but then you pushed more then 2kg)
Need some advise about these wirling belts- want to eleminate as much as possible that annoying sound.
Thanks guys !!!
