Don't really blame you, it was a cold morning and you had a loooonger ride
than me. I didn't remember to put the battery tender on my Ambo so I almost
didn't make it, had to jump the old girl from my wifes car. Nice thing
about these old bikes, they are rugged enough to just jump the damn things
and away you go. Hey, Joe Casey presided over the whole affair and made
things more hip. He gave me the idea to go out and buy a John Deere battery
for cheap to replace my aging and costly battery. I was ready to shell out
$75 to buy an Interstate battery when Joe told me to get a JD for about $25.
I'll go to Walmart this weekend for that. Just Joe, me and that guy with
the yellow guzzi were the only loops. Other guys on beemers and then a
bunch of guys came in on british iron. Nice guys, all. It's a real
happenin' breakfast! Bob

Bob-
hi! i had the stealth edge on my zook [adventure tour] and it does
help, but is freaking UGLY- it looks like door-seal from a '65 cadillac.
you should be able to experiment with your 'shield angle by loosening
the mounting bolts and tilt the shield forward or back to get it right.
sorry i missed you guys sunday. got up at 5am, looked outside [dark]
looked at the temp [cold] and wimped out.

I have an original Ambassador fairing on my Ambo, a nice look, but I am disappointed with the wind management results. I still get buffeting and wind noise ( I wear a full face helmet). I just found a website on a product called Microswirl http://www.saeng.com/products.htmand wonder if anyone out there has any knowledge about this product, which slips onto the edge of your windscreen and breaks up wind by introducing eddies.
