Itchy Nose - Page 3

Have you tried changing your windshield angle slightly? It could be that you're getting a "backside swirl" in your face and under your face shield.

As you know, I wear a half helmet and shades without any type of face shield. I have no problems.

You could cut off your nose to spite your....... no I guess not.

:whistle: :lol:

Thanks for idea sarris. I'm not sure I can eff with the windshield on the Strat. I'll try riding a bit with the face shield up or off when I go out next weekend.

Hey Alan, did your new helmet affect your itchy nose effect?

I'm not 100% sure but it defintley seemed to be better (less itchy.) Part of that could be due to less time spent in the heat, but I did have a relatively long hot run Saturday. It still got occasionally itchy, but overall not as bad as before. The Arai has a lot more vents - a few of which I did not discover until I get back! The itch effect seems to be limited to highway and heat and I suspect it is a combo of buffeting (vibration) and dryness. Plus I have a huge nose.
