I've been running the Harley ones for a couple of years now on my 2010 Limited. Like I said before, they work great in reducing the wind coming up into your face from underneath the fairing. You could actually smoke in the calm air pocket. The best thing is about the fork mount air deflectors is working in conjunction with the hard lowers they really reduce the rain soaking your pants.

I had the chrome ones on my Electraglide. They really do help with the wind. I like the black ones a lot better.

I just got the black ones on my Ultra..

What else can I add to deflect more wind???

I have a 17" +2" on side Clarkcustom windshield on the fairing, the Fork inbetween chrome deflector, the Black side fork deflectors, and of course the Harley Lowers.

I want to add more!

Might as well just jump in the cage!

Seriously though, have you tried one of the "recurve" windshields? They do a better job of throwing the wind up and over you.

Dawg,

Did you like these? They look big.

I will post as to whether they fit (which I'm sure they will) when I receive them. There was no changes in 09 that would warrant a fitment issue in this area.

I like them. They aren't any bigger than the HD ones

Not for me but a great post; thanks for the info. Posts like these can either get you a product you really wanted or needed. Or, it can save you money when you realize you wouldn't want something like that on your bike.

I just got a black set for my EGC. question is, I know the orientation to mount them but do you just pull your light bar bolts out and install them or do you slip them behind the light bar bracket then put the bolts through the light bar then the deflectors? I can't tell by the pictures or instructions.
Thanks for input...

You pull the light bar bolts and install them....I put painters tape on the back of the deflectors as precaution from possibly any scratches to the chrome.
