RE: Wind Deflectors
are you referring to the lower deflectors to keep wind from coming under the windshield?
If so, there has been several comments here that the HD Chrome lower deflectors work as intended.

Yep, those are the ones. I have seen a few on the web and they range from $45.00 to well over $100. Generally, you get what you pay for, but thought someone might have some info before I start ordering.

RE: Wind Deflectors
I have the wind deflectors that Harley Davidson sells installed on my bike. It is amazing of the amount of wind they keep off your ears with the windshild. I give them thumbs up for function.

Thoughts on blocked airflow to the engine during hot weather?
Do they lend themselves to easy removal during the summer?
If so, any thoughts on the potential for scuffing/marring from the mounting brackets? (can't have that!)
I'm open to new shiny things to bolt onto my scooter, especially if they provide a functional benefit.

RE: Wind Deflectors
I can't imagine these blocking air flow anymore that the lowers on an Ultra Classic. I have had them on every bike I have owned, and never had a problem. The air is still free to come through the frame uprights and right onto the motor. There is also plenty of airflow coming around the bottom of the deflectors. You can tell this by how much wind your lower legs are getting.
There is a deflector that goes between the forks on the Dressers that is supposed to disrupt air to the engine. Maybe this is what your friend heard about???
