Bonneville America Forums Forums Technical Forums General Tech Buffeting Solved

Here's the setup Installed a clearview windscreen with Memphis lowers,butteting reduced but still a problem. BUT, while riding at 100kph, I moved my feet back to the the passenger footpeg positions, and wouldn't you know it, the butteting was gone. Moved my feet back to the forward position and the buffeting was back. Solution, IMO, mount driver pegs midway on bike. Works for me, would be interested in knowing if anyone else tried this????

Aren't those lowers upside down?

Sorry. I just looked at a picture and it seems you have them right.

(I am not kidding)

i have midpegs on my bike and with my feet on them i get way more air. To the point where buffeting is the least of my worries!

Oh, i have a memphis fats and lowers.

I guess there's just a lot of individual geometry and dynamics involved in the airflow.

Yes, body size/shape and position makes for interesting dynamics.
