One of the things I am working on this winter is the rear head rest fairing on my Honda VT500. I would like to determin what would be the best angle of the slope but can not find anything specific, so I will need to do some tuft testing to find out...

best regards
I'd be inclined to mimic something like the architecture of the VARNA Diablo.The university team members I visited with analyzed VARNA and gave it Cd 0.11.So
'Georgi' couldn't have done too bad with it.
