Default Freedom Wings Questions
I'm considering a set of Freedom Wings but am a little hesitant. Hopefully some of you guys can ease my mind. They look like they have decent fitment and function but do they get loose over time and the air pressure push them open? Also have any of you noticed any scratching of the paint where they touch the fairing?

I've had them for 3 years and love them. No issues what so ever and the extra breeze when it's really hot is nice. And they look a lot better than the Willie Wings HD has.

I've had mine for >3 years and once in a while I'll need to tighten the nuts a bit, but that's rare and not a negative issue for me. The FW's don't touch the fairing at any point in their movement, at least on my bike. I would purchase these again without hesitation.
