During the forum last year at Oshkosh it was stated that a front windscreen about 2" lower than the rear will significantly reduce/eliminate buffeting in the rear. Mine are the same height and I get beat up in the back when the canopy is cracked open and when it's off.

My question is, can a windscreen be cut down in height? If so, I'll be looking for a qualified person to cut mine down...and for suggestions on who could do it!

Thanks,
Chad
