Wind in your ear

Has anyone noticed that when the window is down the wind seems to blow directly into your ear!

It only takes a few minutes and I have an earache!

Any suggestions other then don't open the window or wear earplugs.

Slide the seat back all the way and recline it a bit. I ride w/ the windows down 75% of the time and have not noticed it.

Notice jx3 also has vent visors on his window. That will affect the wind. Maybe that is your cure.

I'm pretty sure that having my head right next to the B pillar has a lot to do w/ it.

I have vent visors. I just open the back windows and all is good.

Only worry if you feel a breeze exiting the other ear.
