Fort Walton Beach, Florida I'm a simple man, I like pretty, dark haired woman and breakfast food.

Lookin' at getting a set of lowers to mount on the forks.  

I've already got a set of Bakers mounted, but I think that I'd also like to add a set of lowers.  Maybe something that I can turn out like the bakers to block the air in the winter and turn in to scoop the air in the summer...again, like the Bakers I've got.  

I'm leaning towards the Memphis Shades lowers as I think they're adjustable...but I'm not really sure how adjustable they are.  I need something that will work with my light bar that I can adjust or possibly modify/trim to make fit.  I'm not afraid to cut up some lexan to make 'em fit.  

I'm aware of the Show Chrome, but are they adjustable?  I've also seen the BigBikeThings lowers, but I'm pretty sure they wouldn't work with my light bar.  

What all else is out there for the Valk?  The more adjustable the better.  

btw.....This is the light bar.....

Better to be judged by 12, then carried by 6.

I got a set that mounds to the headlight bucket bolts. Not sure what they are, havent seen any others like'm. They help keeping the wind from blowing my hat off with the b'wing. Need to take them off and see since I added wing deflectors. If no differance I'll remove them. Kinda ugly.

I have the same light bar as you.  I had the Memphis lowers and sold them because I couldn't get them to work with the light bar.  JMO.

Is it the lightbar that gets in the way or the turn signals. I had the same problem. I got a set of lowers from Big Bike Things. They mount to the bolts under the triple tree, like the Honda accessory lowers (that are no longer available) do.

It was the new location of the turn signals (under the lights) that caused the problem.
I solved it by using a headlight mount extender, which also moved the entire highway light rig up an bit and forward. If your lights mount to the bracket that attaches to the headlight bucket this may work for you:  http://www.directlineparts.com/byBrand.asp?brd=Speed+Chrome&str=2
