Default 2014 Rushmore Street Glide triple tree wind deflector

Any of you guys try the small half moon triple tree wind deflector on the 2104 and up Street Glide? This part http://www.kuryakyn.com/products/179...wind-deflector

I installed a 10" windsplitter shield and it works great. I still have some turbulent wind trying to lift my shirt up and shakes my glasses a bit. Just wondering how this works on the Rushmore Street Glides?
I called Klock Werks about a different shield and after talking to them they thought my shield was not the issue. They asked if I had the half moon looking deflector.

I assume you have a 2014 Street Glide, I put a lower triple tree wind deflector on an 07
Road King and it did help with some of the wind coming up at the front of the fuel tank.
Kuryakyn has this new but similar part, and should work the same as the old HD part.

I bought one for my 15 Road Glide, it makes a slight difference, but not much. For the price, it's not bad.

I put one on my '15 limited Low. Not an earth shattering difference, but a difference.

Worth the money.

I know some guys don't like the looks, but those fuggy fangs (fork deflectors) helped me with that around the tank up draft.

My 2000 Ultra came with the fork air baffle as stock equipment.
I also added the chrome air (fangs) deflectors, as well as the air deflectors to the lower part of the batwing fairing.
Combined, these seemed to give me very good wind protection, and for cooler weather riding, I also added the National City hand wind deflectors.


I started using the "fangs" on my '92 Heritage and the best way to describe how they will work for a Heritage rider is this:
If you do NOT have the "fangs" on you Heritage now, ride your bike to 50-60 MPH. Take your left arm and fold it across your chest and notice the difference in the amount of wind coming up your chest towards your face.
This is what the "fangs" will do, but in addition, they do look mighty fine on your bike!

I put one on my 2012 Ultra Classic and it did make some difference in taming the draft from that area. I felt like it was worth the price and would definitely buy it again.
