Does anyone have the soft lowers that go over the crash bars? Are they effective at all?

Thanks,

I have a set on a SG and they work great. I take them off at 50 deg. they go on and off very easily. They do keep the cold air off my legs.

 

Been looking hard at them, hate they way the look though.Thanks for the info, may have to try a pair.

 

I have a pair. They work great to keep the chill off of your legs.

 

Love em. Put em on when you need em & take em off when you don't. I carry them in a saddlebag. You can bet that when you need them, you won't care how they look...

 

They don't look good, but they work great. Saved my butt last year during bike week when it got COLD !!!!

 

I have them. They DO work. Well enough to make me want hard ones.

Mine don't fit well, and I had to remove my pegs to use them ( I had the pegsmounted lower so I could rest my feet on the boards and put my toes on the pegs sometimes ). My main concern is that they are a flat surface- I can really feel the bad aerodynamic effect in buffetting winds.

I ordered some hard lowers because I like the 'quiet' on my lower legs. The soft ones are OK, but I hope the curve of the hard ones move through the air better.

 

I had a pair on my flht. I put them on if it was cooler than 50. Made a noticable difference on my legs. Also kept splashes from getting to me. They were a little tough to get snapped if I tried to put them on in the cold, so I'd warm them up inside before I put em on. Real easy to remove if it warms up. I'd recommend them.

 

Planning on getting a set for my Springer Classic

I don't have them, but I borrowed a set to ride down to Daytona in 2005. They worked great, 18 degrees when we left, rain and snow on the way home. I was glad I had them.
