    YES----- if we knew what year your was. I have adjustable deflectors on my 2014 RTS and they work great along with a vented windshield. The new s also have air deflectors that are un-noticeable unlike the Bakers. Available from BRP as well as the aftermarket.( Slingmods for one)

    Ebay has them cheap for older ( pre 2020 modle Rt's)

    One of the two most impressive after market additions to my 14 RTS were the Baker upper/lower air wings. Only $30 more than Slingmods and no drilling. Bakers are two way. Open them up for more air and turn them down for no air, and I do mean NO air. You can easily drop your riding temps by 10/15 degrees and be comfortable. Very efficient and effective. They can be installed and removed w/o any modifications to your spyder whatsoever.

    The biggest benefit to Bakers is they remove that cold slipstream from hitting your hips knees and lower legs.

    We got the Can-Am deflectors to replace the originals. Ever so slightly larger, mount in the same location and adjust to three positions. In the 'closed' position, they are just like the stockers. In the 'intermediate' position, they bring a lot of air to the passenger. In the 'full open' position, they also bring a lot of air to the rider. Very easy to adjust while moving. If you have a 6" Torx bit for your power driver, installation is quick and easy. Seems that it took longer to open the package than it did to actually install them.

    How do you have them mounted? I ask because I don't recall having any problem like that with mine.

    My Bakers don't do that either. None of the slipstream passes behind mine, it all goes around to the outside.
