Default RE: Chrome Wind Defectors

i put these on my bike and to be quite honest, I didn't notice any difference as far as blocking the wind. What i did notice though is once I throw my feet up on the highway pegs, the way the deflectors re-direct the wind, makes is very annoying to my face and neck. I took them off. I'll sell them to you for $20 if you want them.

I have the chrome deflectors and the baffle installed and find that they work well together winter and summer.

I have the fork deflectors and the baffle. If you ride in colder weather you will feel a big difference. I take off the fork deflectors in the warm weather so my engine will cool better.
