Here's a better view of the Dominator one:

Shouldn't be expensive, either - BikeBandit in the USA quotes $31.64

can you please tell me what the overall height of this is.. I am getting one cut, but need the overall height thanks..

ANYONE ????

Please

I printed the picture, took my ruler and a rule of 3 based on the other dimensions tell me: 16cm approx


now I'm sure you can get a much more accurate dimension using a proper software able to measure the distance between 2 points.

My old DR800 has a very similar bit of plastic on the bottom yoke. Although I was still less comfortable at speed on that than the Ten'

Personally, the buffeting doesn't bother me - maybe something to do with my size and shape, or the (non-peaked) lid I wear, or the fact I always wear earplugs, or just that I have low expectations :D

This opinion may change come the summer if I start doing more riding in my MX lid.

has anyone tried to "block" the 2 opening beside the lover part of the headlight ?

air coming through there would directly "hit" the tank and be directed upwards to the rider.

opening best seen on this picture:

I've my dad to make me a aluminium version of the turbulence stopper.
This way I can still mount the fog lights on it

I assume that these two small openings are hardly of any influence, compared to the wide open gap right underneath.

In the picture shown (my bike) you can see the WindCOMB up in the 'duct' formed by the shape of the tank. The idea behind it, is not to block the wind gust, but to disperse it. Other solutions (mounted on the bar, or underneath the headlight) are based are diverting the wind gust instead.

but the wide gap underneath goes toward the radiator which is inclined downwards and would direct air down and away.

these 2 openings may just create a current drawing enough air to create turbulences.

anyone got a wind tunnel to make some tests ? :D :D

I'm referring to this area:

which aims directly at the gastank of which the smooth shape forms a very nice tunnel that directs the wind gust to the rider's chest and chin.

The radiator is positioned below that area.

I wasn't saying you were wrong (or are), just that i noticed these opening this morning and wondered if they could have an influence :)

after all, a small spoiler on the screen makes a big difference, why a small opening wouldn't make one :)

I'll block them with duct tape to give it a try ;)
