There has been little talk about them over the years

Probably because they are obscure, expensive, special-order-only, and never promoted. Even finding them on Kawasaki's site is a major chore.

Are you talking about the Gen 2 with the speed limiter? Poor things have a top speed of only 154. ::) ;)

Only? lmao!

OK anybody have any experience with and without them? Do they help any when it's cooler? I always used the extenders on the C10 when the weather got cool.
-
Yes, they really help cut the wind from hitting your knees. I was lucky enough to grab a used set on here, since I refused to pay the ludicrous $ kawi wanted.

It's about how fast you get there :D , They did not make the side spoilers for the Gen 1's because if you block ANY air your legs will melt :banana

Exactly! Oh, I am so limited!!! N O T!

Interestingly, I have no problems with air hitting my knees.... of course, I have short legs so that might have something to do with it. But it does seem to hit my hips/side of upper thighs. Other problem area is the back of my neck. Doesn't seem to matter what I adjust, there is always cold air there.

Yes. They push out the air flow that would normaly hit you around the knees and upper legs.

Not all of the Gen 2 bikes are limited. 8)
So you just keep on thinking that.

That's correct. At those high speeds there is quite a bit of heat caused by air friction. ;)
