They do have options. I emailed them before I ordered. Very informative. If interested email them first with questions. Yes they are pricey but are vinyl over an aluminum base so you can fit them snug. I love them. Glad I saved a few extra dollars and bought these. Everyone I know that have bought the plastic ones from HD and Kuryakyn have already cracked or fell off.

Yeah, been there, done that with the HD deflectors. Work for some, not for me. But $140.00? Think I will stick with the original, Crotch Cooler. And custom work is awesome. Have a fender bib from them that is out of this world IMO.

That's cool. We can't all be the same. We'd all be riding the same bike then wouldn't we? That would be boring.

BTW, the bike color is cool enough. The doo rag????

Nah....
A) That's not new. That's about 3 years (35,000 miles) in. They are sturdy and hold up well.

B) I was really hoping someone would offer me style points on what I wear. (If you don't like it, look the other way.)

C) It takes a real man to ride a purple motorcycle and wear a purple dorag.

I also like my RJ's.
The jeweled studs match the fizz on my Root Beer 'King, and work very well.

I use the Captin Itch cooler over the top of the stock plastic deflectors on my 2012 Ultra. I had to do some trimming of the leather to get it to fit up to the tank nicely. The stock deflectors hold them out for better air flow and the Captin Itch coolers make it look good in my opinion.
