So they say, it's so darned cold here that I'm gonna take it off my '09 to see if I can get more heat! They really are supposed to keep the heat off your thighs. There is also a sponsor here that sells 'em, No More Fried Thighs or something like that.

Maybe its me, but I just don't get the hype about these heat deflectors. I've been riding many years, and it just comes with the package. Rocks get kicked up from the vehicle in front of you, weather elements (rain, hail, heat, etc). Kinda makes me wonder how soft are we getting as a biker community. I call it part of the thrill. I rode it here I'll ride it back.
