My solution to our Street Glide buffeting issue
...was by trading it for a new 2012 Road King. I ran out of things to try. I still love the SG, but this is working out better for me =)

you guys crack me up!! I can't find the on/off switch or the volume control for the radio. The ambient temp is usually hot.

I have put 13,000 miles on Street Glide and have yet to experience this "buffeting" everybody crys about. Mabe its cause when i bought it i did a 6.5 recurve shield,fork baffle,and vented lowers? Its gotta be. However I rode my bike about 2,500 pre lowers and never got it. I wana feel it. See if its as bad as all the boo hoo hoo'n I read about it.

Did the same as you, traded my 08' SG to a 10' RKC (my 3rd King). Congrats on the new bike.
