Hi, and thanks for looking.

Are you troubled by buffeting or windblast? Is the poor protection offered by your screen detracting from an otherwise great bike? Laminar Lips are designed to smooth out the airflow as it passes the screen and fairing to stop buffeting and create a larger pocket of still air for the rider. And I can personally testify that they work!

Full information regarding Laminar Lips, how they are fitted and how they work is HERE

This listing is for a clear Laminar Lip for the Tiger Explorer with the factory touring screen. The Touring screen is about 17 inches tall compared with the standard screen's 13.5 inches. Lips for the standard screen and for most other bikes are available please see my other items or contact me if you cannot see what you are looking for.

The design of some fairings allows the wind to flow around one side then the other creating buffeting at the rider’s helmet. LIPs are designed to trap the air from flowing around the sides of the windshield and redirect it to flow over the top, lessening or eliminating this buffeting.

The LIP is an inverted airfoil located above the rear edge of the windshield. As air flows between the windshield and the LIP, it follows the underside airfoil of the LIP and is redirected more vertically. This air eddy then diffuses the oncoming air, in effect, to raise the blast of this oncoming airflow. The end result is that there seem to be three different air speed zones as you ride along at a set speed:
1. Behind the windshield – very little wind speed
2. Above the windshield for 6 to 8 inches or more – a wind pressure well reduced from actual speed
3. Above this height the blast that was at windshield height before the LIP was installed

Because all fairings and windshields are different, the effectiveness of the LIP may vary model to model.

Another feature of the inverted airfoil is that it increases down pressure on the front wheel. As a motorcycle proceeds down the road, air pressure (effectively from the front—although the air really is not moving, the bike is) tends to rotate the motorcycle around its roll center lifting the front wheel and loading the rear. The LIP opposes this action to some degree.

The LIP does all this without your having to add a larger windshield. In many cases it works better than the taller replacement accessory windshields, because although they may be taller, they do nothing to control airflow. Sport bike riders also can benefit from the LIP. When cruising along normally the wind pressure will be raised, and when flat on the tank behind the LIP turbulence will be much less.

3M Dual Lock(TM)  is used for attachment. Dual Locks were designed to meet and surpass the rigors of attachment in an automotive environment. The Laminar LIP application utility is so unique that it has a Patent Pending.
