Default Adjustable Wind Deflector
Just added an adjustable wind deflector to replace the factory one. Makes a world of difference riding in the hot Georgia climate. My guess is that likely helps with the heat on the engine also. A little pricey at $79, but worth every penny and looks good.

I'll post some pics tomorrow

Just put some Freedom Wings on mine, and glad I did.
They look better than stock, and make life a breeze!

Looks good....do you use the stock holes? Do you like them more because they deflect more wind or because you can direct some wind to you when things are hot? or both?

How do the shorter antennas work? Where did you get them?

Super easy install using stock holes, and they add a lot more air on hot days. And look much nicer than stock in my opinion.
Shorter antennas came form AutoZone for $4.95 each and the radio receptions seems just as good as ever. I don't really use the CB, so I don't know the effect on that.
