@Simon Davey When I had mine fitted it wasn't that high! I put the arms pointing down and tilted the spoiler to be up a bit more than the stick screen
The idea is to create a disturbance in the airflow

Leathers in the cold! thats a no from me! leathers have too many perforations in to keep you cool in summer than in the winter you are just asking for it!
Textiles all the way in the cold with plenty of layers and the heated seat and grips on

I went out this morning and it was showing 1.5°c
Well wrapped up and heated seat and grips on and it was fine and a really good 160 mile ride

Yes! Happy birthday to the forum!
That's a lot of years!
I remember the days leading up to setting it up and spending loads of time researching how to get it all going and off the ground! It was then a case of taking the plunge and just winging it! And here we are still winging it today
Massive thanks to everyone over the years past and present who has made it what it is today

I have also added a GPX file for sat nav's with all the locations
If you have a garmin device you can load this with garmin's POI loader
Not sure how other devices would handle it

The idea was to buy it and test it to see if it worked and with it been cheap I wasn't going to lose a lot of money
If it worked I was going to buy a decent one but it worked and was pretty good quality so it stayed
Win win for me

You did well then. but there are different types of cheap. aren't there.
Amazon usually has reviews that you can read. They also have a no quibble returns policy.
My main beef isn't with stuff available on Amazon, they have to operate under UK law - which offers a lot of safeguards.
It's these Chinese websites that sell cheap knock-offs. copies. counterfeits. however you want to describe them.
Sites like Aliexpress and its ilk. I would also avoid eBay sellers based in china too.
YT is crammed with examples of these types of knockoffs. with direct comparisons with the originals. and they tend to have one thing in common.
It was cheap Chinese that took 3 weeks to arrive and cost next to nothing cheap!

I bought a cheap one off amazon and it lasted till I sold the bike and it's still going strong now with the new owner
It would be 5 years old maybe more now!
So cheap does work and can last

Not at the moment, but then it seems to be raining all the time and howling winds.
Far too cold to be on the bike though

I detest that place too

Won't affect me but that's a shame for the local businesses as it will just push people away

Do you have a way to store water somewhere?
Could you use a water butt? You could even plumb it in to the drain pipes and use rainwater if you would be allowed to
A lot of jet washers will run off a water butt
A jet wash won't hurt a bike either despite what the others claim
