Theres a few pics of my bike with the airdam in my gallery. If you want more let me know, I can post more. Where in PA do you live? If you are on the eastern side, you can see my bike in person. I live right outside of Pottstown.

Pretty cool looking. Where did you buy yours from? If I buy one I'd probably have something custom painted on it. Fryguy thanks for the invite. Unfortunately I live in NW PA.

Here's another of those accessories that makes me realize that my tastes cosmetically must be in the minority. Those things just look fugly to me. But what exactly do they do?

Besides looking cool I believe it forces some extra air up to the oil cooler.

They provide a bit of negative lift so your bike doesn't turn into an airplane at 200+ MPH. Since I don't ever ride my America much over 110, I don't really think I need one.
