RedYaris, Thanks for the suggestion, I'm still working on refining my streamlining and have made some noticeable improvements in the handling in windy conditions. Alan Smith advised me to lower and round off my windscreen and sine finishing it have noted a marked improvement in wind buffeting around me and in steering deflection from side winds. I also rounded th face of my front wheel fender . Next I'll clean the air filter replace the plugs, check the valve lash and do and oil change. Other steps are: modify the mirrors and turn signal lights. I should have a pretty good tank currently as I hit 200 miles and still haven't moved the petcock to the reserve position.
all the best L& S
