Inner Tr. Tree Wind Deflector?
A tremendous amount of wind coming under the lower triple tree is deflected away from my head by a fork mounted tool bag but I don't like the look of the tool bag and want to remove it. Are you aware of anyone who makes a wind deflector for Dynas that blocks wind coming through the INSIDE of the forks under the lower triple tree? I know Kuryakyn makes one for the touring models.

Yeah, I'm one of those candyasses like the guys who prefer windshields or face shields in the winter. I know that real men doesn't use anything to reduce the effects of the elements when they're riding their bikes and that it proves they are the equals of professional fighters, test pilots, and Seal Team 6. But I'm slowly building up to it by not wearing sunglasses when I ride, which a real man like you must have stopped doing a long time ago, right?

I don't doubt that you're getting a fair share of wind blast on your Dyna - our bikes have minimal protection in that regard. But I would think very little of the wind pressure that is felt from the waist up is coming from below the lower trip tree, but rather comes from the air that is deflected up by the headlight, bars, and tank. Even if I found the windflow below the trip tree to be objectionable, don't know if I would want to block it off as that airflow down low helps to cool off the motor and exhaust.
Best thing for you may be to look into a windscreen or fairing as already suggested. Hope you get it worked out.

I remembered seeing a thread about a Touring deflector being modded to fit a Dyna when I was looking into buffeting issues. I don't have one, but is this what you were looking for?

Not trying to say all that. I have a quick mount windshield on my bike right now for the 30 degree morning ride to work. All I'm saying is that if you're going so far as to strategically place wind deflectors all over your bike to prevent wind from hitting your head you might not be cut out for riding. Just saying. You be more suited for something like a sporty Mazda Miata.
