I had added the mirror wing and the cowling wings. These does good. Was still getting heat on my legs while using my hwy pegs. So I ordered the leg wings that mount on the engine guards. Tried them out today. Did not help with the heat as stated.  To me maybe cut some of the air that comes thru the upper air wings. These may be good for the cold weather, but do not recommend them for the summer time. Getting ready to take them off and will put back on when the weather gets cooler. Mirror wings and cowling wings gets a  cooldude. Leg wings for summer  Angry.

Went to the Baker airwings booth at WingDing yesterday and sat on a new Wing as he demonstrated his wind management solutions. We have been having an issue with the F6B with the extra wind keeping Andreas microphone open all the time regardless of how high I set the squelch. I would not have thought it possible but the addition of two small pieces of smoked plastic about 4 x 4 inches mounted under the mirrors took all of that air away from her head. We noticed a HUGE difference on the way home.

They do work good. I also like the other air wings. Big help on keeping air flow to you.

No Ed, it was the intercom/stereo that was giving us issues but there are CB kits available now for the F6B that look factory including the factory controls.
