I just put them on yesterday just to throw more chrome up front to offset the chrome everywhere else. So good looking even the wife said wow and she doesn't even ride. I like them. Will test functionality tomorrow on a ride.

 

Great, looking forward to your report. Would be cool if you could put up some pics of them installed too...Good luck.

 

Too ugly, looks like a cheese grater.

 

So have you rode with the Kuryakyn fork deflector yet? Still looking for more feedback on them before I lay out the cash...Thanks.

 

They work, i have some similar lowers for my yamaha. was going to get some for the harley, but you have to take off the lowers, which i probably will soon. I have some desert dawgs that can be put on if its gonna rain or i get caught in it.

Just got back from windy 3-hour ride and the deflectors work! You will hear some rush of wind through the vents - I left them open - and by design the ends of them will shake some down by the forks, but I'm very happy and they are a keeper.

Ride safe,
Murph

 

Thanks man, that's good news.
I cant remember do you have a RK? I have not seen them installed would be cool if you had a pic.
I just got back from a 50 mile ride and that dam wind from under the windshield comes right up the side of the tank, up my chest and 'bam' right in to the bottom of my chin. Worst part is that makes my glasses wiggle and that interferes with my vision.
When I get right down to it, won't make much deference how they look installed, because if they work I need them.

 

Sorry it took a while, but I finally got around to the photos. See attached. Yep, I have a RK Police - 2009. These deflectors are quickly becoming one of the best add-on's I ever bought for the bike.

I bought them strictly to continue my bulked-up look of the front to match the rest of the bike, but they are truly functional. With the vents open, I can finally ride my bike without Desert Dawgs that I had to keep on year-round to prevent my too short legs from getting splayed from the wind. I have an oil cooler, but replacing the Desert Dawgs with these should help my motor run that much cooler and longer.

They also complement the Kuryakyn lower leg deflectors that also help my bulked-up look of the front to match the rest of the bike. I know, I know ... not for everyone but it works for me.

Anyway, here's a couple of things to be careful of ...

1. The nylon washers below the nuts that secure the vents open or closed are very soft, so don't over-tighten them or you'll crush them.
2. After you crush one, you can keep over-tightening the nut and wrench the welded screw it is on completely off the deflector.
3. You can then re-attach the used-to-be-welded-on screw with JB Weld or red Lock-Tite with a little ingenuity.
4. Start over at #1.

 

Thanks for the pics. Glad they are working out for you, I am still on the fence but leaning more and more to these. Best looking ones I have seen so far IMO.

 

looks much better than the ones from HD, wish they had some that workede with lowers
