Oh Kuryakyn!
The good... Amazingly it does keep air off my knees and thighs. The bad... I end up hyperfocused on my shins! I really didn't like the fit, especially at the top with the tape. I'm using a spacer to keep it off my paint. I cannot imagine these won't end up scarring the paint eventually. It does look good though and I'm gonna give them a good run for the money over the winter months. In cooler weather, I can already feel how they direct the hot air from the radiator to my legs, and that's a big plus. For how they are made, they're not worth the money. But I'm still keeping them. Top screws are a pain to get in, you have to line up the body panels precisely. The bottom screws go right in. I didn't use the tape, just the screw with a touch of blue. They do look good from afar. |

Good but….
I like these so far. They perform as advertised however, I did not have an easy time with installation. I used the tape and the screws. It was pretty straightforward except the top holes were not properly aligned. It was so frustrating b/c the angle is just very difficult to reach repeatedly; turned a 10 min job into over an hour and a lot of sweat. If the top hole was anything like the bottom hole, it would’ve been a breeze. |

Lower Air Deflectors
I am very pleased with the lower air deflectors. I believe this will give me a solid 4 months of riding in the late fall and early spring. The three positions work as follows: 1 full deflecting: directs hot air completely away from you and is more like the coverage of the earlier model wings. 2 halfway open: gives warm air for your shins, thighs, and lower arms with a constant stream of warm air from the engine (preferred position), and finally 3 angled open, blasts the warm air to your lower legs almost completely. One side note. I have a 2022 Tour Dct in Black, and they blend in like a factory option. I like the fact there is no drilling and can be installed/removed easily for service. But I didn't use the tape. Screws alone seem fine so far. |

Look good
These deflectors look like they belong on the bike. My only complaint is the instructions are a little vague. I had a terrible time getting the top screw in each side. It was very difficult to align properly. I ended up using an awl to get the alignment correct. |

Good, but room for improvement.
First, the good: 1) they look great and really suit the bike. 2) they work reasonably well, shielding my legs from air when closed, allowing air through when open, and (coolest ) of all, also can be adjusted so warm air from the radiator washes over your legs, which is nice on a cool evening ride. Now, the bad: 1) costly for what they are 2) difficult to install correctly, you have to be very careful to ensure that the holes all line up and that you don't overtighten, if you do it's possible to break the mount point on the deflector (I did this and had to fix it with crazy glue). 3) the two-sided tape is sub-optimal - I installed them using the tape, but will be replacing it with thinline velcro to facilitate easy removal. |

Cold Knee Caps.
So far have worked well, I used the 3M adhesive and screws, Did not want plastic on my paint in case i get some vibration from the wind. |

Easy install
Very easy to install. I swapped out two sided tape at top with velcro and didn't use the other tape, just the screws. My concern would be getting the plastic grill off if you use all the tape when its time to replace the air cleaner. The deflectors work well. Cool weather here so have been opening them to pull warm air on me. |

Easy installation, works ok
I had Baker wings on my 2012 and loved the function of those deflectors but didn't like the looks of Bakers on the 2023 so I bought these instead. I installed with the screws only, no adhesive and these look like a factory product. They don't work as well as my previous setup but so far are good enough. |

They look great.
I installed it on my 2022 wing. No 3M adhesive was used during installation. After installing it, I rode the wing for about 600km, but so far there is no problem. It was a cold day (10℃=50℉). I opened the deflector plates and felt the warm air from the radiators warm my knees. |

Kuryakyn Air Deflectors
Added these to my 2020 GW last year and are a great addition for wind and heat control on the lower body. There are 3 adjustable positions that allow you to totally block wind, while 2 positions allow some heat and wind in. The heat is nice to have on the lower body when outside temps are cold. |

was shocked at difference
I bought these to try to eliminate some updraft on my back and wife. I thought this would push the air out further and that is exactly what these have done. It also keeps the heat off you more. Yes they are expensive for what they are, but everything for these bikes are outragious. |
