Default Lowers ?

I did a search last nite, but didn't find what I was looking for. I've got the HD quick detach W/S on my FXDL. The buffeting from the w/s is horrible at best. From another post, I dropped the W/S 2" below the lower triple tree. Buffeting was all but gone. So I'm thinking if I can raise the shield back up to where it should be and add the lowers, it might solve my problem. Well, now we introduce another. I called Memphis Shades this morning. They said they don't make a mounting clamp for the 49mm tube. WTF!! So, has anyone mounted just the lowers? What did you use? I have a hard time believing that the 49mm tube has been out for over a year and they haven't developed a clamp yet. I'm just wonder if she was clueless. Thanks in advance.

Just go buy the HD QR clamps. I was told you could order just those. You may have to do a little tinkering but I think you could do it. If I find the time I am actually going to try to make something to mount right on the HD windshield hardware to mount lowers.

No no no!!!

You were mislead. They do make lowers for our bike. I bought some a couple weeks ago.

I'll look for the receipt.


BTW. It does fix the problem

I look over the top (5'8") with the standard quick detach and a sundowner seat. Without the sundowner, the top is in line of site.

I should also mention that I added a tool bag to the forks and the tank lift to get rid of the buffeting. Each of these helped but the lowers were the ticket.

I may drop the tank liftfor fuel gauge accuracy .

That part number is just for the plastic.

The mounting hardware for 06-07 dyna's is 2320-0010. Looks like **** if you ask me. I am going to continue to explore the idea of makeing an extension from the WS hardware to mount the lowers to. That way when I remove the WS they come along with it.

Gamma,

Pics would be great!

Cstolp,

Actually, looking at the MS site, the P/N gamma listed for the lower is correct, and the hardware "looks" like some of the other hardware P/N's, although not listed. I "think" the # you have is the one that mounts to the MS w/s itself. Not for sure, but that's what it looks like.

I agree, most of the solutions look like *****, but I need to do something. 2 weeks left! Thanks all!
