yooper, I have the fork and fairing deflectors too. I really don't know if the fork deflector works all that well since I've never had it off.

Your comment about not noticing much of a difference in the fairing mounted deflector is true, but I can tell you for a fact that it does make a difference. You don't notice the diffence in "Air Deflection", but you will notice the difference on your pants/chaps. During my last road trip, these deflectors kept several pints of bug juice off of my lower legs!

As for the chrome fork mounted deflectors, I've decided against them. As low as the FLHT fairing is, it just doesn't seem that the chrome deflectors would be all that effective. I haven't found any others with fairings (RoadGlides included) that are using them.

Thanks for the reply.
