I added 12", which was max giving the size of the rack and tent. If I were doing one without a tent, I would go around 6" to push the air up and over the rails and gear on top.

Just an FYI, I have done design (ME/ID) work for two roof rack companies, one major manufacture. I have been using a fairing since the late 80's, as I was a competitive cyclist, and it made a HUGE difference with Yakima bars.

The main issue with all the 4R racks on the market is that they are flat, though angled it is not ideal. Curved to match the windshield would make them much more effective. I have designed a roof rack for the 4R but not sure if the investment in tooling is worth it for the sales opportunity. But it would be innovative given the standards out there.

Anyway, PM me if you want the file, or even a shorter version. Then you can have it cut. I will also tell you how to install it.

Cheers
