Default RJ's Heat Deflectors
For those who have installed these are you still happy with them?? My concern when looking at the installation photos is that they would rub paint off the side covers. Has anyone experienced this problem??

I know riding here in the METROMESS of DFW it is brutal on our seemingly endless 100+ days so am looking for relief.


Thanks in advance for your responses!

I live where you live and dont have any issues, I have one tucked under the side cover and the other one doesnt even come close to it.

They have added some small gromets on the new ones to make them easier to install also.

Very happy with mine
