Yup huge gain. Normally peak efficiency is as close to 2000 RPM at 90% load as you can get. And for cruising as low an rpm as possible. Since we are running such small engines we can't even get close to 2000 RPM without lugging the engine so literally every bit is super helpful. I'm running a single so I can get to about 2500 RPM and then it starts lugging.
Stock windshield is a little 2" lip which im convinced makes aero worse. The fast air goes to the top of my helmet now instead of chest.
I'm currently running 4800 RPM at 70 MPH. With the +2 sprocket ($30) it is 4250 RPM. I also do a lot of 45 MPH so that would put me at 2700 RPM. Seems to be a good mod.
*Vetter does some sweet stuff with the fairing but I don't know if I could willingly make something so ugly anymore haha. I will stick to the windshield and using a backpack instead of panniers.
