Hope you can read the writing on the pics in full screen. But the first pic shows what it looks after its on. The second and third show how the adapter looks, and the direction it would go on. The front slot on the adapter is bolted on to the bracket on the shield itslef, using a couple of fender washers and a bolt, locknut and a couple of fender rubber washers. Kind of crude but effective.

 

Does anyone think the chrome plate that fills the gap between the headlight & forks on the Fatboys & Roadkings helps reduce buffeting? I have rode a RK with touring shield with almost no buffeting,but my FXDXT was the worst bike for buffeting I have ridden.

Thanks, and no they aren't quick release. But they still come off easily.

 

I think your right. I took the same bike out today on a Demo Ride and the bike had hardly any buffeting. The wife was ready to trade up.

 

remember that its also a heavier bike as well.

 

I talked to a guy I know who works at the local Harley shop (get this, just for fun) and he showed me a part they sell for the baggers. It's called a baffle and mounts under the bottom triple tree. He said HD doesn't have one for the Dyna but he has seen them and would try to find the link for me. He said this baffle took care of the same problem they have with the baggers. So if I get a link from him I will post it here.

 

Guys; Go to www.jackflaps.com and watch the video, it really does work!!!!!

 

Did you solve the problem with your windshield? A lot of the solutions centered around adjust the height of the windshield and on a 2005 Lowrider this is not possible. BTW i have a 14" Harley Compact windshield.

 

You are putting too much into this, just go fo a ride and quit thinking about it.
