Default Chrome wind deflectors?

Anybody got a picture of a bike with the harley chrome wind deflectors installed? Do they work? The part number is 58121-85B so they have been around a long time.

I've got 'em. Put them on for a couple of cold rides, I honestly couldn't tell much of a difference with them on.

I took mine off a couple of weeks ago and can't honestly tell the difference. I think the bike looks better without them, just my opinion.

I used to have them on my old Road King,and they did help with the wind on my legs when it was cold outside. I also noticed that they helped when it was raining also. They also helped keep some of the bug splatter off the front of the hard bags and the sides of the engine area. I personally like the way the bike looks without them,but they do have some function. They are pretty easy to take on and off also.
