I've searched and searched this forum on this subject without much luck so I apologize if this question has been asked before.

I have an 03 Ultra, I live in Florida so leaving the lowers on year round for me is too hot. I've found (for myself) that if it gets above 79 degress the lowers have to come off. That presents a problem when it's 50 in the morning and 80 in the afternoon.

I was looking at some aftermarket lower fairing vents and was wondering if anyone here has installed and has an opinion about the following vent systems.

or

Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks

Anybody?

 

Would a set of freedom wings work to keep the heat off as well or better than the vents?

I don't have any experience with either of those. I put a set of HD vented lowers on, part #58854-05DH, and I think they work great. They will fit your bike. They are pricey though!
