      Unfortunately, not much can be done for us with specs. Just keep the visor open a little bit for better airflow, that will alleviate things a little. I wont recommend keeping visor fully open as bugs hitting your face at high speed can be super irritating, and painful. That said, you can fix the headlight issue by installing a good HJC or Maddog AUX lights. You can get it fitted as an approved accessory from the dealer itself. Costs 12-13k INR and is must for this bike.
