    Question about Wings

    Anybody here has all the baker wing products installed ? Will the trike leg wing on f6b look too big or goofy ? Looking at the pictures the regular leg wing looks really small compared to Trike leg wing. I'm planning on adding all their wing products. I live in Beckley, WV and will be riding to louisville,KY every other week to meet up with friends for rides and will be doing lot of highway riding.

    Thanks

    The leg wing is designed to deflect air and rain away from your legs. The trike wing does the same thing only designed larger to protect the fenders on a trike from road trash and bugs. They both mount the same way. I haven't seen any mounted on an F6B. Part numbers for engine guard are different between F6B and Goldwing. So I can't say for sure if they will fit or not.

    Thanks. I was wondering if anyone here has all the baker wings installed. Would like to know how efficient it is in blocking the wind.

    I don't have all the wings on but I can assure you that the ones under the mirrors work wonders. Lowers wind noise and reduces buffeting on your arms and passengers ears.

    After checking, I found that the leg wings will fit on the F6B. They will block the air on your shins they will also help keep your shins dry in the rain. The air wings with uppers will block most of the wind on your torso and chest. They are adjustable. Remember you have to drill holes in the strip that runs down the top of the fairing next to the pockets. If you are squeemish about drilling the holes find someone that has installed them before to help you out. And finally the Hand wings that go under the mirrors will block the wind from your hands and arms.
