Haven't and wouldn't.  At least with my Road Glide turbulence from around the fairing isn't an issue.  And it's already warm enough behind the fairing that I'd not want to bolt on some ugly stub to kick the wind out further.  Can easily imagine warm(er) legs behind those things.  Best guess is someone noticed a place where they could bolt something on and then marketed a product to cure a problem we don't really have.

Agree with Don.    8)    I've ridden Road Glides since '04 and would never go back to a "bat wing."   For me, I get better aerodynamics, mileage and handling.

If you're tring to alter the wind in the cockpit, you might try the wind deflectors if you've not had the tank recall accomplished.

They don't fit if you have the non-vented lowers either, parts guy said yes, wrong, unless you take the Dremel to them so in the closet they sit. :-\

Not for me.......... actually, I need to find someone that wants a 12" Klockwerk in trade for an 8 incher. The 12 blocks too much wind for me and the stocker just doesn't look good to me (don't like the top of the dash hanging out the top.
