Do you guys know if a front fork air baffle is available for the Slim? I can't seem to find it on Harley's site and have searched the forum without any luck. Like a lot of you guys I get a lot of wind coming from underneath the tank and it's driving me insane at highway speeds. I'm running a LRS windshield when I'm on the highway for extended periods. It helps with the wind but I still get tons of air from underneath the tank. I'm debating on a front fork air baffle, tank lift, some sort of lowers or going away from the softail all together and looking at a Dyna, RG or SG. Thanks in advance.
I'm away from my bike for a couple of months but I'll take some good pics when I get home. I've installed some 12" Carline Gangster Apes, your Heritage bag, new seat, and a little powder coating. I wouldn't mind doing a suspension upgrade and possibly a tank lift to combat the updraft of the wind but other than that she's more or less where I want her to be. I think for my riding style a softail might not have been the best choice but I really enjoy the bike for now. Once you get them set up how you want it's hard to justify selling them and starting over from scratch. This forum has been a huge help.
