Shows the side view - you really don't notice this being there, but it knocked down about 90% of the wind coming up over the tank behind the fairing.  I also figured it directs more air back on the engine.

   I'll be getting that one. Thanks again Possum!

I'll order one of those too.
Got the FLTR air deflector yesterday, today I trimmed them so they do not rub on the batwing fairing on the SEUC.
I also ordered a new Freedom 11" windshield today, John is very friendly to deal with.
It will be : Bye Bye wind and buffeting !

Ride over Stu, I have several to choose from...

Mines a 2010 SESG so I don't have the lowers, I did install the chrome baffle between the forks but honestly don't really think it helped that much,just wondering if the fairing deflectors really help? I see JCZ has Pics, Can you tell me if those make a noticeable difference. Thanks.

If you're talking about the adjustable ones that mount on the batwing fairing, then yes, they really do work.  I've had them on every batwinged fairng bike I've owned, and wouldn't have one without them.  The quickest way to tell if they are effective is ride with them wide open, like they weren't there, and then close them, you'll see a noticeable difference in the air flow.

Love the ride better with them every day.  They really work!  

[RedDevil]

Live the ride better with them every day.  They really work! 

Outstanding Stu...glad to hear you like them.

Ok  Red Devil and Stu Thanks for your input.

   X2...Just installed the Motor Company's "new" version of the adjustable deflectors & WOW what a difference--took 90% of the wind off my chest(!) at 70-85mph. 

Next Challenge:  I'm 6'2 & still get hit mid-forehead/helmet with wind coming over the fairing--gonna' try a new/lower saddle & then move to a new windscreen to try to remedy...Cheers, Moose

On the batwing - the fairing deflectors do help.  Now that it is warmer, I open them and direct the air where I want it.  Especially helps with the heat on the right side of the bike.

X2...Tested that procedure over the weekend on Monday when it was 90deg here in VA--worked perfectly for airflow/temp control.
