Default Lower wind deflectors for Switchback?
I have searched to no avail for lower wind deflectors for the Switchback. Has anyone found any? Originally had hoped for the chrome "fangs" like I had on a Heritage, then I thought since I couldn't find any like that for the Switchback, I'd try the plastic ones, like Memphis Shades. Still no luck. ????

I used the ones from memphis shades off of my 07 low rider, I don't have the part number though, there are a couple versions one company has some for like $80.00. Check out the FLD owners website lots of good info on there. Hope this helps. Love my Switchback 8,500 miles and climbing.

Memphis shades. Need to buy the deflector and then the appropriate size bracket. They work well, and are good quality. About $80 from memory...

Maybe I'm not looking right. I was not finding the mounting hardware that would fit a Switchback for Memphis Shades, or another similar product. Are you saying you do have the Memphis Shades ones on your Switchback? Did you have to modify? I have sent them an email but they haven't replied yet.

Hmmm ... Memphis Shades told me they do not make the hardware for the Switchback. What hardware are you using ? Thanks.

These is pretty cool, for the money I might get these, if I don't dig the preformance or the looks, its not a big loss.

they don't make them for the switchback, has to do with fork size.. poster above has the Memphis shades mounted on a different model dyna


I believe someone on the switchback owners board found a set that would work from Memphis shades but I cant remember the model # he used.. if I come across it I will let you know or you can join that site and ask yourself
