See the wind deflector at work

Here is a video i did of the wind deflector. This is at 80mph with the windows up and the deflector up and down. Notice my hair and my shirt with the deflector up and down. Sorry for the music. I actually do not like country but this was the only station in the middle of Kentucky I could get.

It's very helpful to see it in action after the discussions on the thread over the last couple of days. Thanks for posting this.

That's exactly what I've noticed with my wind deflector. The turbulence moves from about mid-ear level to the top of my head.

lol. dont you see all the trees in the background. That's all i saw for about 3 hours in literally the middle of nowhere central/western kentucky. Growing up here you'd think i'd like country and nashville being close.

Nice, thanks for sharing, always wondered how much of a difference this makes. How about the noice level, is that also decreased. From the video it seemed like it did. Also did you have the windows up or down in the video?

Awe Fezzik, I didnt know you had such a soft side... This would be the soundtrack I would have imagined that you'd pick either way riding through the country side with the top down.

"All my thoughts just seem to settle on the breeze"

Well placed line from the song bud!

Thanks for getting this damn song stuck in my head.
