Here you go...some pics of the Harley deflectors on my 2012 Ultra Classic. The last pic shows the clearance of the lower fairing at full lock.

I have the black JES deflectors on my black 12 UC. They blend in with the lowers so well you hardly notice them. They also work so well that I can only use them during the cold months. I've also considered cutting them off near the bottom of my signal lights. I'm not sure I need the amount of protection they give and could probably get by with a shorter deflector to block only the air coming in around the tank. The JES deflectors are one of the few things I've added that actually work better than expected.

Would a SG with lowers not be the same as an Ultra? I could be wrong, but are not all the touring frames/chassis the same?

I thought so too. That's why I offered my UC experience.

I think it has to do with how the turn signals are mounted on SG.

HEY Man, try and get you one tomorrow. All the pics I have are of the right side with the wheel turned to the left not showing the clearance. Promise it is good. Over 9000 miles with that combo. Reduces wind issues significantly.

What is the purpose of these deflectors, let me re-phrase that, what do they help or improve on? What do you notice with these installed?
