Hi all been playing in the shed today .im blocking off the vent on the clamb on my can am behind my neck anyone done it . What's the pluses and minuses hoping it cools the back of my neck . Also considering fitting a wind break into the roll bars behind the seats anyone done this ?
Other Abbott is correct - I've done some experimentation in this area with good results. Whilst driving the car I was finding that the warm air was being pulled into the cab with the vortex that the 'aero screen' produces - this would increase under braking! My rear clam has a large (and rather unsightly) hole cut into it to accommodate my kinsler injection system - thus blanking off the aperture isn't an option. I did however have great success with installing a Perspex (5mm) air dam - with holes for airflow - on the back of the rollbar. This has all but eliminated the issue!
I blanked mine off with a piece of carbon. It had an effect but not a massive one. What would sort it would be a way to create negative pressure in the engine bay by sucking enough air out at the back to make the pressure in the engine bay lower than in the vortex behind the windscreen. Suggestions from aero bods welcome!
I have seen an ther canam with a perspex screen in the roll hoop a good few years ago at lemans.
I am about to fit an Inglese inlet system and would disagree with the unsightly comment.

What do you tink about a vortex reduction slot?
Something like what all the rest of the world make on spot bikes?
