Default wind deflectors on a Heritage

Just wondering if anyone has or tried the wind deflectors part # 58125-90B do they actually work or is it a waste of money? I have an 06 Heritage Classic and thought these might cut back some of the wind.
Thanks
Sheldon

I liked them so much on my Fatboy, the day I picked up my 'new to me' Road King, I picked up a set of these too.

I have them on my '08 Heritage and I think they are well worth the money.

I want as much air as I can get around the windshield in this heat wave.

I installed them on my Heritage a few months after I bought it. The buffeting coming around the bottom of the windshield stopped.

They do seem to hold some of the heat in at slow speeds, but after 35 mph or so you're going fast enough for the heat to go away.

More pro than con in my opinion. I like them a lot.

Some depends on how tall you are I think and also whether you ride with your feet on the boards or up on freeway pegs.

More effective if your feet are out front but either way I'll never be without them again.
