There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I started with the BRP adjustable wings to try to get some heat relief here in Southern California. They do move some air, you can feel the difference, but it wasn't a whole bunch. We then got the Baker Air Wings:
Spyder RT New Gen. Air Wings w/Uppers
Item# SPYRTAWUPNG , Mounting Hardware: Black , Color of Wings: New Gen. Clear
.......... and that was a game changer. Everything is better with the Bakers. I'm more comfortable with the 50° riding in the mountains. I'm more comfortable with the 100° in the desert. I don't need to make near as many stops for "costume changes" as I can now go warmer or cooler simply by reaching down and adjusting the air flow. And yes, the BRP adjustable wings together with the Baker do make even more of a difference. I would probably say that for the overall difference of wind management, the Baker wings contribute about 75% and the BRP about 25% of the change.
We went with the clear wings. After having them on for a year or so I don't even notice them visually anymore. I'm much more interested in how comfortable I am than in how I look. Just ask my wife.

Passenger
the Baker Built Air Wings will help the passenger as much if not more than the driver. Don't take our word for it ask around and you will see what others think. They might not like the looks but i have not heard any complaints on how they work. We do offer 30 day money back guarantee try em and see what they do.

Here is our bike at the shop we have shown with Chrome Scratch Resistant Dark Tint (the best seller and looks good too) or we have them shown in Black Hardware Orange deflectors. We do offer them in our full list of colors but just thought i would help you so you could see what they looked like on your bike. Whether you are trying to deflect the wind and rain away or direct some cool air onto you, you will not regret in purchasing Baker Built Air Wings.

Mike,
Perhaps they can get you a set in Pearl White... with chrome hardware!! :clap: :2thumbs:
They'd look GREAT on your bike!

AWG,
In reading over the scratch resistant options, I'm thinking about going with Clear(won't "interfere" with the color) with Black hardware. Now my question is: I do not have engine heat issues, and I do have the BRP adjustable vents. What would the additional inner panel accomplish???
Thanks for your sage advice
Mike
Baker Built air wings for RT
Does installation require any drilling or other mods? Or, do they use existing attachment points on the RT?

Inner Panels
The Inner Panel will help block out a gap that is left on the riders knee when closed some people get the IP some go without. It can easily be added later if you get the main Air Wing and decide you need the Inner Panel. Hope this helps.

NO DRILLING
The Air Wings require absolutely no drilling, you use existing screws. The only hole you would possibly drill is if you get the bottom Leg Wing, that requires you to drill one hole on each side in the black plastic fairing at the bottom.
