Hi everyone.

When riding my GL 1500 and California rig, I get a lot of air pushed from the sidecar and right in to my face, making it difficult to ride with my open helmet, even hear the music/intercom.
I have noticed that some riders have a small reflector mounted on a bracket off the right handlebar. been looking over here in Europe for such a deflector, but without any luck so far.
EML sidecars in Holland used to make them, but they dont anymore. Do you guys know a dealer somewhere, Europe or USA. or is it a DIY project ?
