So I picked up my 16 FLXHS about a month ago and so far it's amazing. Especially coming from a 2000 Fat Boy with a **** ton of problems. About two weeks ago I rode it to California and really only had one issue. When using my highway pegs, the wind would use my nuts as a speed bag which for obvious reasons becomes uncomfortable after hours in the saddle. Looking at Harley's P&A it looks like I have two options and I am hoping someone here can offer some input. These look like they would be pretty gaudy and noticeable since they attach to the fairing. https://www.harley-davidson.com/us/e...oke/p/57000529. The other option I was looking at was these https://www.harley-davidson.com/us/e...rs/p/57400146A. The fork deflectors seen like they would look a little better. Has anyone used either of these products?

 

I have the fork deflectors on my Heritage and they helped with the wind situation tremendously. Don't think it did my mileage any good but who cares!

 

I can't imagine it hurts mileage at all lol. But thank you.I'll see if one of my local dealers has them in stock.

 

Fork deflectors. They work, and they look okay.

 

I hate the look of fork deflectors, but given your criteria of 'using highway pegs' I'd have to go with that option. I have the adjustable fairing wings (first option) and I like them, but they do nothing for the highway peg air.

I'm tall and like my legs stretched out and low on the pegs, gives the wind a straight shot up to my face. Fairing lowers did WONDERS for that and they look great IMO.

 

Wind management ranks right behind which oil to use and where to put the gas cap when fueling. In other words. there are a ****-ton of threads and posts on that subject.

 

I have both on mine. I think the fork deflectors did more than the fairing deflectors but both together work good to stop the wind. Don't forget the one that goes between the forks https://www.jpcycles.com/product/230...-air-deflector

 

Get a Road Glide. JK, sorta.

 

Haha I actually dig the RG but the dealership I was at only had bikes outside of what Harley was willing to give me.

 

So are you going to add anything of value to this conversation or just complain?
