Default Installing "fangs" on Heritage

Those who have done it...how difficult is it? Any helpful hints? Just got mine from MoCo and plan to install this weekend. Thanks!

I'd do it for the look alone.

I'd suffer hurricane winds to avoid those ugly things on my bike. Looks like a chick with HUGE meat curtains. LOL

LMAO...I know. I'll just have to see if I can take function over form.

Takes about ten minutes. Made a huge difference.

Put them on my Fatboy, didn't help near as much as on my Road King. YMMV.

Installed a set on my '14 Fatboy and it took maybe fifteen minutes including taking out and putting away my tools. I pulled them off this past weekend and actually saw a dramatic decrease in front end vibration and an increase in agility of the bike in general on a windy day, I will be leaving them off from now on.

I have a Lindy highway bar on my bike. Will this be a problem?

Not hard to do. Lindy bar should not be a problem.
