The HD deflectors eliminate the turbulence behind the windshield. I really like mine.

The deflectors work well. We have them on the wife's Heritage and on my EG Classic also.

Regards,

Bill

I have the deflectors on my machine also and I found that they made a large difference in buffeting behind the windshield. My son, after hearing how I liked them, got them also, he has a Road King Classic. He loves them as well, but his wife says that she gets the air now instead of him, and she is not too happy about them.

Are "they" ever really happy?

Have a set on my FLSTC. Makes a world of difference on long riding days and in the rain. Nn noticeable handling issues in strong head or cross wind situations.

I really like mine. I get more turbulance on the lower portion of the leg and foot but good boots and chaps take care of that. My jacket collar doesn't smack my cheeks any more either.
