Default fairing wings

I've got a bit of buffeting on my Eglide so I thought I'd start with a set of fairing deflectors. I know Memphis Shades, Long Ride Shields, Freedom Wings and Kuryakn make these little buggers along with the Moco. Looking for opinions on them. Are there any differences???

Wife likes hers from MOCO. The adjustable ones. You have an ultra? Or better yet do you have lower fairing?

I don't like the way the adjustables from the MOCO look for my year bike (2006). When open, they have the "frame" around them if that makes sense.

So I sent with Freedom Wings in the dark grey. Top quality, work very well, and look the the H-D deflectors from the newer bikes.

I have the freedom wings, great product, great service. Plenty of auctions on Ebay from them.
Keeps the wind off you when want and directs air on you and the engine when you need it

I put MS on my fairing to match the color of my bike. Don't know if others offer this but they do help with wind.

I have HD's wings on my fairing, but they're one of a few add-on's used to clean-up dirty air around the rider. Other things to consider are (1) fork baffle, (2) lower fairings, (3) taller shield and (4) fork deflectors. I have everything but the fork deflectors and the ride's pretty buffet-free on non-windy NE days...

Don't think there is much difference other than looks and adjustable or fixed.

Definitely get ones you can open. Very nice on a hot day since you can adjust air back to you.

I have the HD ones because I lines the simpler look vs some others.
