Honda OEM Deflectors any good?

[telecam]

Thinking about ordering Honda OEM fairing and lower wind deflectors. Are those any useful?

Thanks.

My opinion is that they're way overpriced for what they are. Here's a thread about them so you can form your own opinion: http://nc700-forum.com/forum/nc700-general-discussion/725-honda-wind-air-deflectors.html

Hello I've read about them on some forum they are quite functional for wind and water protection. Than I've already bought them. Only lower ones I already installed and rode in the rain with less water spreading. The upper deflectors I will install later. There is no aftermarket replacement.

Thanks guys, that's helpful. I found them pricey too for what it is...

I rest my feet on them occasionally. I have highway pegs, but will put my heels on the lower deflectors. Don't know how well that's gonna work out over the course of a decade, but they haven't flow off yet.

I just installed the upper wind deflectors. Instructions say to let the adhesive set up for 72 hours before riding. The deflectors were considerably heavier than I expected. They look like they'll provide some degree of protection. I'll ride tomorrow but cold weather will tell the tale.

I bought them when I ordered my bike last year. imo, not worth it

Thanks for the pic, looks better and bigger than I thought they would. Could you post a picture form the side to get an idea of how they blend in the design?

Thanks.

I have a pair of lower wind deflectors for the DCT model for sale that are new in the box. They came with my NC700XD.

The bike also came with upper deflectors already attached. I have the impression they provide some protection but have never ridden without them.

Off topic but where did you get that 'grippy' stuff?

side view:



Tank pads are from Tech Spec. Expensive but very easy to install.

Do you still have the lower deflectors for sale?
