I had the same problem on my RG. I bought some colormatched Hoggchopps and the block the wind a lot better. They are well built and cheaper than the HD ones.

The soft lowers work great in my mind they do catch a little air (think sail's) but not that bad 
I tried a set of HD soft lowers on my RG and really noticed the wind resistance at highway speeds. Most of my riding is at highway speeds, so I took them off. Think of a sail at 70-80 mph. Couldn't wait to take them off.

"After a clonk on the fore head"
I coulda had an Ultra..
I see alot of guys buying Streetglides, Roadglides, and Roadking touring models and then adding tour packs and now lowers...
Is there a great difference between an Ultra with a detachable TourPack installed and a Street Glide?
Seems to have all the stuff these guys are adding....

I think it comes to personal preference. The RG is different due to the fairing since the weight of it is on the frame and it is not factored in when you are turning the bars. It takes getting use to and some people do not like the looks of an RG. There have been many threads on the subject so I say try them all and get what you like- it is your money.

I recieved mine 4 days after ordering them....Installed them in a few minutes and took it up the highway at 100 mph. They didn't flap,didn't seem to effect my handleing, and cut the wind on my legs/feet perfectly.I even found that they worked while I had my feet on the highway pegs. Great fit, great performance, nicely made, and for a great price. They'll be in my saddle bag always if they're not on the bike....Great product!!!

I looked at those before I ordered a set for my roadglide..
End up with a set or Airlite lowers.
Instead or 2 pieces , they are one long piece that install on Lt crashbar and then behind the front fender over the Rt side crash bar. A large section of open mesh in front of the engine allows cooling.

I just got mine, There well made and they fit tight with the Velcro straps 29.50 on ebay plus 17 postage to Australia. They fold up in a small nylon carry case thats takes up very little room in the saddle bags. Great for cold and wet rides
