The wind off my sidecar is brutal.  Anyone know if the Bakers will help?  got em on my I/S & Tourer.  Of course they are great for wind management.  Just don't know how/if they would work on the rig.

Sorry I didn't see this sooner. You have probably already gone one way or the other, but I can tell you I have Bakers on my bike with the sidecar and they still seem to help.

Wind coming off the sidecar IS brutal.  Bakers do help, but not as much as on a bike, because the car tends to push it right back at you!

I think one of the other things that helps me is that my sidecar is short and without a roof, so the wind it is pushing back is hitting me lower than a hannigan or even a california would.  Downside is that there is no roof for my passengers. If I get wet, they do, too.   ;D

This is an old post.  Oct 2009.  Don't know why it came up as NEW.  I did get some used Bakers & am very satyified with the results on the  hack.   I also installed some fork deflecters.  Wind no longer an issue.  Have put several thousand miles since install.   :cooldude:
