21K on My 08 ultra, and adjust them all the time while riding. No problems.

I've had the Freedom Wings for about two years and can give a very favorable recommendation with no negatives to report. I would buy them again over the HD product because I've heard of too many that have broken.

It's a shame that these Freedom Wings don't come in dark smoke, like the MOCO adjustable wind deflectors and most aftermarket fairing windshields. I would have seriously considered them, along with the Plus Wings.

That is the only reason I went with the Hd adjustable. Have not had them long enough to know how they are going to last but they work great.

They have smoked and black in freedomwings and the black looks sharp. If my repair job ever gives I think I will try the black wings. You can always drop a layer of tint on the smoked to make them darker.

I have the HD's and they were transplanted from my 05 to the EGC 2 years and no issues. I adjust them all the time on the fly.

I have the non adjustable from Harley and have been there for three years no issues at all, did not find it necessary for adjustable ones..

I have the adjustables from HD. They work great, and have not had any issues with them.
