Default Freedom Wings Plus

Anyone use the Freedom Wings Plus? Right now I am running the Harley brand adjustable air deflectors on my batwing but noticed that Freedom Wings sells a small piece called the Plus that goes behind the turn signals to reduce wind coming over the lowers. Thinking about switching to the Freedom Wings so that I can add the Plus (doesn't work with HD deflectors) and just wondering if its worth the hassle of selling my deflectors and getting the F.W. and Plus setup.

thanks!

I use the Harley adjustable air deflectors with the Wings Plus. I leave them on all year round and find I have no bugs stuck to my pant-legs even after a 700 or 800 mile ride. Also when riding in the rain I don't seem to get as much water on my legs. I can still adjust the deflectors to allow more than enough air when I get hot. I don't hesitate recogmending them.

Curious that it states will not work with SE or Street Glide.

"The PLUS does NOT fit the Street Glide, Screamin Eagle or 2010 and newer Tri Glide Models." Oh Well.

Freedom Wings Plus sounds like some kind of female hygiene product.

Do did you get the HD adjustable air deflectors to work with the Wings Plus? They both mount to the bottom hole in the fairing and the frame of the air deflector causes the Plus to not be able to mount flush.

Not sure about the plus add-ons but I have tried all the different deflectors like the freedom wings, harley's version and Kuryakyns and the Freedom wings were the best I had used on my batwing bike.
