Default Road King Fork Deflectors - Anyone using them?

I had them on my SG, and they worked well.. Just wondering if anyone is using them on their RK? If so which ones? Kuryakyn makes some and they look better than the big ones, but not sure if they are as effective.. Thoughts?

I have the MOCO ones on my RK. They comepletly eliminated the head bob effect from the windsheild.

I've been using the HD ones. No more problems with wind buffetting.

Yes I did.
I just took them off and I'm sending them back. They did help a little but they are built flimsy and they shake and wiggle constantly. My opinion, poor quality.
I've always had good luck with Kuryakyn products until this.
Some may not care if the wiggle all over the place and they may be O.K. with them. I might give the Harley ones a try, they look to be more solid built.
