I recently figured out that with the stock windshield, there is a lot of turbulence created around my helmet. When I stood up on the pegs at speed (65mph+) I noticed that the wind noise was drastically lowered as air flowed normally around the helmet. So, as an experiment, I took off the windscreen and rode to work. Drastically different in the following ways:
massively more airflow to the upper body which is fantastic for the summer.
A lot less wind noise as the buffeting caused by the windscreen has been eliminated.
However, the change will cause more fatigue riding longer distances at higher speeds, but for tooling around, I find non-windscreen to be better.
Now the question, can I find a smaller windscreen than the Puig? Do they have a flush mounting windscreen for the FZ6? This would also clean up the look of the front of the bike too.

. I'll do some digging and get back to you guys.
