I purchased my Indian Scout back in 2017.  I live in Texas, so most of my rides are long, fast rides.  Soon after purchasing, I installed a windshield to make it more comfortable on long rides.  The windshield created a new issue of wind buffeting my helmet so bad I would get headaches after riding for a while.  After doing some research, I learned that other people had the same issue, and these fork deflectors would fix it.  Indian doesn't make these deflectors for the Indian Scout, so I turned to my 3d printer!

I've run these on my Indian for the last four years, and they have performed exceptionally well.

I initially printed the brackets and deflector as one piece.   Later, I swapped it for the plexiglass version.  I've attached both print files.

I purchased 1/4"-20 Thread Size 2" Long carriage bolts to attach the brackets.  Here is the line to what I bought:   https://www.mcmaster.com/92356A550/
