Too Cold

I went for a short ride yesterday ended up being only about 10 miles. It was around 37 and i was way too cold. Especially my legs. I did get an engine guard for christmas so I will have to get some hard lowers and it will make my legs warmer.

Had a very nice christmas with the family. They also got me a Luggage rack so I cant wait to mount the extras.

Have you looked @ soft lowers? Check this link

yes I saw those but I think I like the look of the hard lowers with the storage compartments from Advan Black. They are vented so when it is warmer It will still provide some wind movement over the engine. Maybe coupled with the dkcustoms wings.

The D K Customs wings are a big plus

These are from Hogworkz and block the air nicely and have vents that can be opened to allow air flow in the summer. Cheaper than OEM and you can add speakers or use the pockets for storage.

Looks great on your bike. Great Color and I like the fairing too

Lowers

Maybe its me,but I get an up draft from between the lowers and the tank. It creates an up draft causing buffeting at around 70 MPH. I am thinking of getting a triple tree wind deflector to help push down the air.

Nope, that does not work well with Twin Cam and M8 engines.

Look here instead, these work
