I love them as i ride year round. My bike came with the vented and they work. Also as mentioned, rain protection is great, especially for the freak rain showers.

Very easy install. GET THE VENTED ones.

I never take mine off, even in the Texas heat and humidity. It's just so much more comfy to ride with them on.

I've done it both ways.........just buy them with the vents already in them.

I love mine, great in the winter and vented in the summer. I have the long angled mounts and footpegs that wrap around the lowers for comfort on the highway too.

It hit 90 degrees today here in Phoenix.... I keep my lowers on year round....
Easy to install if you are handy... If not call a friend and down a few cold ones... Than Hit the Hi-way... You'll feel the difference right away...
Oh yeah ....Think about "Vents"

Just an FYI. Lake Shore Harley is having a 20% off with free shipping over $500 sale. You vented lowers would run $519 shipped. Damn good deal if you ask me. Dunno how long it lasts so you may want to act fast.
