Default Can you keep wind deflector on RKC with street slammers

I've thought of putting street slammer bars on my Road King Custom, but I don't want to take the chrome wind deflector off.
Is it possible?
Has anyone done this?
Did you drill holes, or is there a pre-fab tripple tree cap out here that will make it work?

First, just about anything is possible... but, with the street slammer bars, it comes with a special cover, and you will loose the deflector... I suppose you could drill holes in the deflector, but at that point, it probally wouldn't look as good, so why bother... I personally like the street slammer bars, but I really like the looks of the deflector more...

gotta agree with PapaTravis on that. The deflector does look good and gives the Custom it's own face..
By the way RKC is a classic, not a custom.

I believe you can there are two holes that are covered by the chrome spike on the classic that would allow you to mount the deflector on a custom. That is if it mounts to the cover with two bolts at the bottom of the deflector. I have the classic so I have never had to deal with the deflector on the custom.
