Whilst touring in Poland this year when the tempatures were 36 ish I had a problem with excessive heat from the oil cooler blasting into my face and chest. Very nice in winter but a pain in the summer. Has anybody else had this problem and is there a cure, ie fitting some sort of baffle ? Cheers Stuart

I think it happens because the windscreen produces an area of low air pressure behind it when you are riding, so the air that goes throught the oild cooler gets sucked up. I reckon tobinators will reduce that problem because they are designed to allow more air to flow between the screen and the headlight, thus increasing the air pressure behind the screen.

Are you using a different windscreen? What position do you have it in?
 
Ru sure it wasn't just the regular air flow seeing as it was 36* :nenau
