Default Front spoiler

OK, I'm thinking about adding a front spoiler to the bike.

Is there another option out there I should consider? Is this a stupid addition to the bike? Just curious what you guys think.

Cheers.

I've always liked how those looked with the Ness-style fairing. Not sure how it would look with your big windshield, though.

Bob tail fender, leather bags and tombstone windshield are a bit "old school" style; I'd say it don't quite suite the bike.....here's one on mine:

Yeah, he's right. I didn't notice the bobtail fender at first glance. Plus the big backrest... Chin spoilers are generally used when going for a more sporty look.

I gotta agree. It doesn't hurt the looks of a bike with the windshield, bags, big seats, etc. strapped on but it doesn't really do anything for it, in my opinion, either. Strip the bike down, lower it, and then add one of these, andit would look pretty darn spiffy.
