Wasn't the old one supposed to have great wind protection?

I guess they figured because of lackluster sales they decided to make it look more Japanese.

the old one? you mean the 1125R? there's no way it doesn't have amazing wind protection.

I think the 1125CR was created just as they had the lightning and firebolts... ya know?
