Bones, it's as low as possible now. I'm looking between the top of the front tire and the bottom of the lower fork tree so I've only got about 4" of windshield. 32 1/2" to the top of my helmet.
People chucle at calling a 125 a big block but, really, it's like comparing a small block V8 to a big block. Huge difference ! Are you starting with an RS125? Let me know.
Thanks Nortonist. I've studied everything that Kolb did. He really did a fantastic job on that bike. That video shows the body aeros around the rider could have stood a lot of improvement but he still needed to be able to get on and off it. He was running BUB and I don't know what those rules say about rider's speed humps. The vid shows lots of turbulence behind his head. Speed humps are only restricted by build materials under SCTA rules and I'll be taking full advantage of that. Like you, I wish the smoke operator had spent more time behind the bike. BUB rules are way different there, too, but it would have been interesting. He was narrower in back than me but I'll have full body to 10" behind the tire. We'll see how it works out. Wind tunnel testing is not in my budget. I wish I could see the effects of an open, spinning wheel back there.
