- June 06, 2011, 08:50:53 AMI bought a set of soft lowers from a guy in Canada for like $50. They made an enormous difference. My problem was more of my inside leg muscles getting really painful after about 300 miles at a stretch, but it cut some of the turbulence around the windshield, too. I got a set of fork lowers from a nomad, and modded them to fit, too That also helped, but the soft lowers made the biggest difference.

- June 06, 2011, 08:05:45 AMO.K. so I put on a cobra engine guard this winter and riding these past few times I have noticed a lot of wind and turbulence coming from below my windscreen up into my face. It wants to blow my glasses and cap off at times and I really need to do something about it or remove crash bar. Do I need a set of lowers on the forks or does anyone have any other ideas on how to correct this?
