Default No more wind

I installed the front fork air baffle HD#58520-79tc...man what a difference...no more breeze coming up from down below.Much more comfortable riding in this 40 deg weather.

40 degree weather - I stay home. I'll bet you could have spent 5 more bucks and got a red bike. It looks good.

I like mine also.
The baffle , soft lowers , and a 12" shield are a killer combo up here.
In New York the season is pretty short so we dress warm and ride anyway.

I put one on last December it worked good. I just took it and my lowers off my 07 Ultra.
Man what a difference. It is so much cooler now. I guess I will change back in the fall.

put my soft lowers back on the other night...

took the Kawi to work from my storage space, then to the GF's in NH after work... man I miss the fairing! long story short when it was time to come home it was chilly. The EG and all my cold weather gear was at her house so I put on the snowmobile suit and leather and had a nice warm wind free ride home 35 miles.

I too did the baffle... once we get warm weather here in metro Boston/southern NH I may take it off and see if it makes any diff in the warm weather since it gets a tad warm behind the windshield

Isn't that the best 20 bucks you ever spent? Put one on my EGC and love it.

Made appointments for the bike 3 weeks ago in the 70's and took the bike to those appointments in the low 40's 2 weeks ago. Could have use them baffles. Is that a harley part?

Not much of a picture but it's the chrome blob above the engine guard.
