    Looking forward to picture. They do look good. Like I love the look of the old XLCRS. 1978.
    They were hot, but in saying, the newer 


    Is the best, for me.. Not bad looker.

    While not strictly a touring bike but I am looking at a Heritage Classic and the wind buffeting is the bigest issue..fork deflectors “fangs” seem to be the answer. Has anyone fitted them and they haven’t worked?
    Cheers

    Had them on a Heritage and a Roadking. Worked really well on both.

    Agree, Graz. Wouldn’t be without them. Had them on the SG and also now on the Heritage. They make a significant difference to air coming up and under the forks to your helmet.

    These are the chrome fork mounted wind deflectors that stop the wind coming up from under the fairing

    They aren’t that ugly Tim.  I may have a hunt around and see if I can find some.
