Has anyone tried the Baker Built air wings on a Rocket?

I have a Corbin Fairing and it would be nice to deflect some air on the cold day rides.

no I haven't tried them,
BUT
I was gonna get some of the chrome ones off fleabay that fit a honda,
Then decided I could probablly make some off a old bug shield from a truck or car.
They'd already have a bend to deflect the air around you, they'd be as long as you want or need for winter riding.
you could rotozip or dremil them to about any shape you wanted and even cut out for your turn signals.
Just a thought.
One bug shield should yield about two sets.
Idea, good, bad, thoughts.....

Mmmmmmm, interesting.

I figure drill a couple of small holes in it and rivet the top of a muffler clamp on there to attach it.
It's just an idea..

I don't think I would like the MUFFLER clamp look attached to my forks......
:shock:

better solution?
Besides, it'll be hidden by the dark bugshield,
all you'd really see is the two chrome or black rivets.
From the front that is.
From the saddle, you wouldn't see anything except the shields, I mean, when you're sitting in the saddle now,
can you see the forks?

Well it appears nobody has tried these??? :cry:

Relax he meant to say "show quality chrome" muffler clamps...there, now don't you feel better?

How about the $205.00 price tag? A little pricy for plastic sheets.

Not putting any wings on mine, I have enough trouble keeping it on the ground as it is. OK, OK, I have trouble keeping it on the ground, THE RIGHT WAY UP. :wink: :lol:
