Fairing air deflectors..

[whitesub93]

Has anyone tried fairing air deflectors and if so do they make a difference ?
H-D part # 58568-98A

I just put these on my FLHT about 2 mi the ago and they work really well. Deflect more air around the fairing. I also just put the deflector under the triple tree. Works great

Good to hear they work enough to make them worth getting. Thanks for the info.

I figured if they out them on the big bikes they should be good enough to work on mine!!!

Glad to help

Do the air deflectors make the engine run hotter? I heard they deflect air away from the engine also?

I have them on mine and do not notice a difference with the engine heat. I find that they do help in both winter and summer with the air flow onto me.

Another piece that helps is the triple tree air deflector that mounts on the bottom side of the fairing. That was the biggest improvement I saw. It forces the air downward towards the engine.

Thanks for the insite fellows, looks like I am in the market for some air deflectors today!

Do you happen to know the H-D part # for the triple tree deflector?

I had a couple of different kinds and the Freedom Winds are made the best. http://www.freedom-wings.com/

I also have one of these - Chrome Front Fork Air Baffle (58520-79TC) which surprisingly made a big difference
