Also a bit less wind and swirls inside the cockpit, so I liked that solution.

Some had concerns that Harley’s full glass could reflect other cars’ headlights at night, but a half glass like this does not matter much.
Adam, after a while not pushing the engine it started to smell more. And when I pushing it, it was smelling even more. But after 2-3 passes of higher boost and mid-range RPMs, it cleared! It smells much less now even when cruising. Funny...
This is exactly what I was going to try, just a half glass bolted to the engine cover. Was sure if it’d be enough or if I’d have to come up a little higher then the humps.
