Sound test for Delkevic 35cm carbon can

[KiwiCol]

Just having a wee play with uploading video.  The link below should take you to a short video and sound of the carbon can I just swapped over.  Will see what happens.

Well, it worked once for me, now it's a no go?  Oh well, too bad, never mind.   Fixed it, going again.

Its very quiet Col.

It's ok to have it here, been through the system when it was on the black, no problems with a WOF - same as your MOT.  It's quite loud / grunty sounding standing beside it, but at open road speeds & just cruising it's not loud at all - give it a handful to pass or something & it's a different story though.

What brand fairing do you have on it

Sounds great!

What brand fairing do you have on it

I'm not sure of the brand, these things were a dealer fit option here & Aussie. They do basically eliminate all the wind blast from your body, which is good, but because I'm tall (195cm) it directs all that wind straight at my head area. I get (or used to) a hell of a lot of buffeting on the helmet.  If I duck down a little, I'm in the calm air, but I'd look like a knob riding like that, a wannabe racer stance.  So I have 2 alternatives now, I've added an extra clip on screen to direct the flow higher (works ok but not completely) and I've also got a cut down screen I fit now & again, this allows the air to flow more at the body, thus reducing the head buffeting, but increasing the body pressure.

If you were, say, 5'8" - 5'11" sort of thing, (AKA @Notty)  the wind blast would go right over the top & they'd be great for you.

I'm only 5'7 so should be good foe me. I've tried to search for them but nothing comes up. I like the ones from Japan but at around $750 AUD posted they are quite expensive. I think GSXBarmy has a colour coded one. I can buy cheaper but by the time you get it painted it would probably cost around the same or more.

I'm 6'1", quite a few years ago I experimented with 3mm clear acrylic sheet and a heat gun, I had a 1250 Bandit at the time, I made extensions of different heights and bolted them to the existing faring, the higher I went the worse it got, in the end, as far as I'm concerned, farings suck dog's balls. The best I've come up with is no faring.
Col, at 195 I can only imagine
