Ermax +12 or +25?

Post by beos59 »

I like the shape and look of the Ermax +12 windshield (see for example http://www.ermax.fr/modele2-PCX_125__20 ... -2049.html ). The question I have is:

Does the +12 do a good enough job with pushing away the airflow from the chest or do you have to have the +25 for this? I'm 180 cm (5'9'').

Never mind, just ordered the Ermax +25 windscreen from same same. After reading up I choose between the Ermax +25 and the Puig windscreen. The latter obviously deflects the air to the sides. But I was not perfectly fond about the looks of the Puig and the Ermax might provide better protection, if not else,due to the its larger size.

Hello I've been testing both yesterday plus Givi 322 and Bondi big big one as we'll. Regarding to Ermax. 25 I preferred before pushed too much air to helmet with not acceptable noise. 12 has been better to eliminate noise but air flew to neck. The only option is to use additional deflector or change the shape with hot air.

Bad news since I've already ordered... :( Anyway, since you have tested many, which did you think was best? How tall are you?

Hi I'm 170cm tall. My opinion is finally one of Ermax with deflector.

I bought a Ermax +12 and promptly sold it, it just blasted my face with air. I'd imagine the +25 will be better.

maddiedog --- Do you suppose that changing the shape of the Ermax+25 might help or hurt? I was thinking ( a dangerous thing for my mind to do ) that using a heat gun to make the top turn slightly upward might redirect the flow over my head.
