side air deflectors
I am looking at installing some side fairing air deflectors on my 06 Ultra. I have seen many different types. Who has an opinion on which is the best and easiest to operate while riding?

RE: side air deflectors
Welcome to the forum.
As for your questions about air deflectors for your Ultra, I installed some called Dragons Wings that I purchased through J&P. They cost me around $100 but I really like the way they function but I worry about some dirt bag come up to the bike and trying to open/close them without knowing how to do it properly. If they aren't operated correctly they can break and that would really **** me off...Other then that, I really like them.

Based on function alone, they work very well, and look good, too.

RE: side air deflectors
The air diverters that Ihave, the Dragon Wings as they are called in the J&P catalog, are the same ones that Avocado has a link to. In order to open or close them you have to grab the inner part and push them straight down. This action unlocks them from their holder and allows them to be positioned in about four different positions. From fully closed to fully opened. Like I stated in my posting I like them but I'm concerned that someone who doesn't know how to operate them will attempt to do just that and break one. [:@]
