Default FLHX Chrome Fork Wind Deflectors

I would like to put a set of those chrome fork wind deflectors on my street glide. I found a post for it back in Oct 10 where people were getting them from a guy off Ebay. He doesn't seem to be there any longer. Anyone know a source for them?

I think the ones the guy sells on ebay have holes cut out to clear the Streetglide front signals that are in tight to the forks.

If they are the same as the ones that fit the Road King, I'd try the dealer.

Energy, I have been tracking those as well. I have came close to clicking on a set. The only thing holding me back was looking at the ones people on the site got look a little different and have a little lip that goes along the bottom of the fairing. I wasn't sure if those were made with a little bit different of a mount not requiring cutting for the blinkers. The ones on ebay right now are the stock HD parts cut out. If I can't find any others I will get a set from that guy.

Zimbob, the factory ones from the dealer won't work on the street glide with the stock blinkers because they are in the way.

Here's a couple ebay auction numbers of the different style deflectors I've seen being sold for the Street Glide. 270672890777 and 180591647493.

rpracing, thank you that first number is exactly the ones I was searching for. I sent the seller a message so hopefully I will be able to get a set.

OLNo7Street,

I was struggling with turbulance on my bike until I did the following:

1. The deflector under the triple clamp, helped some.
2. Proper height windshield so the wind didn't hit me from the neck up, helped a bunch. (Stock Streetglide windshields sure look cool but fairly useless for me)
3. The defelctors that mount on the lower sides of the fairing, made a huge difference, the stereo sounds twice a loud on the highway.

I had been looking at the deflectors on Ebay because my Dad had some on a Yamaha like that and they worked great. At this point I don't think I need them now.

Good luck with your search

Energy,

I appreciate all the info. The guy on Ebay just posted some more of them today. I ordered a set tonight. My dad also had them on his Yamaha Royal Star and I just thought they looked cool.
