Which deflector exactly?

Air deflectors like the ones that attach to the lower side of a batwing fairing?
Air deflectors like the ones that attach to the front forks?
Heat deflector that attaches to the frame under the seat to deflect engine heat down and away from the rider and prevent roasted nads?

if you want one that actually works, looks good and is a piece of cake to install, then RJS Originals is the only way to go. RJ is a stand up guy who really cares about customer satifaction. BTW, he is a sponser here on the forum.

There are many negative comments about the HD and Kury deflectors here on the forum. Everyone, including me, who has a set of RJs are extremely pleased. In this case you get exactly what you pay for. I wouldn't even consider anything else but RJs.

Ditto that, mine are great. Really helped out the heat situation, much less expensive than all the mods.

I like the RJ's because if you just glance at the bike you will not even see them.

Right on gman, RJ Originals are the the first mod I did
on my Ultra! Worth every dime to keep the heat off the jewels.

The HD mid frame heat deflectors are basically a worthless POS. The right side seems to work, but the left side does not deflect anything. I would not recommend the HD mid frame heat deflectors.

This might be a really stupid question but do the RJ's flap in the wind?
