No problem, Bill. I don't need another spacer, just a washer to add to that shortie spacer, I'll run down to Ace and get one. Thanks!

Got mine from Flathead and mounted on my '11 - definitely makes a difference.
Great product - Thanks

It's been around 30° here in the mornings and I have not had to switch to my winter gloves yet, grip warmers about 1/4 on  ;D

I have been using my reg gloves as well - just did the hookup for my Gerbings globes today, with the new wings may not need them for awhile  ;)

Are the 08-09 made? I would love a set for mine.

I'd buy a set for my '08.  I run Baker Hand Wings in cold weather, but I'm not completely happy with them.  I also think yours look much better on the bike.

A while back we had a group buy for Motax air deflectors for both the Gen 1 and Gen 2 C14s. David Cork of Street fighters by Design (http://www.streetfightersbydesign.com/) imported them for us from Motax (a French company, http://www.motax.fr/sommaire_Kawasaki/accessoires_1400_GTR/1400_GTR_07_09_deflecteurs_/1400_gtr_07_09_deflecteurs_.html)

If you're serious about these air deflectors you may want to contact David and see what he can do for you. Or you could order from Motax yourself.

+1 to the Motax deflectors. It made my grip heaters all but unnecessary, only maybe in the coldest situations, in which I avoid driving the bike anyway because there's danger of ice  :o
