Not according to the Harley install instructions and the pictures on their site. As described above, they apparently reverse them on the Softails compared to the touring models.
Completely different part # for the soft tails. Isn't this the touring forum?
This is how I mounted them on my 2011 RKC.
The top angles back, the sides angle forward. As you can see in the bottom photo, if the were mounted the other way they would hit the crash bars(if you have stock crash bars, I don't). They must be right because I could tell the difference right away.
There seems to be some confusion when it comes to the correct installation of the HD fork mounted wind deflectors...It's impossible to tell from the photos in the installation sheet, and I just searched through multiple pages of previous posts, but I couldn't find a photo that shows definitively angle back or angle forward.
HD wind deflectors notwithstanding, buy these and you need no instructiions for the correct installation. They work extremely well, and the price is right. Web site says he's out of stock, but I bet he'll have more later. These are the real deal..they work very well.

Amazing how something so simple can end up being confusing !
The good news is there are only two ways of fitting them. I had a set and one side had a better finish than the other, which seemed clear to me at the time!
Has anyone come across a short version that can be used with the engine bar mounted fogs?
