Baker Air Wings

Does anyone know if Baker Built, as in Baker Air Wings, is still open for business? Just sent them an email to their customer service address listed on their website and had it bounce back to me with the note that "there is no one at this address."

Not sure but if you are looking for wings try F4 they make exactly the same things
But I have no idea how you would mount them to your windshield / doesn't yours angle down on the ends?

Yes, the Ripper. That was exactly the gist of my email to Baker.

Are you putting a top on?
If so you can make a set to mount to the posts
But no way is there enough end on that windshield for wings

No top, at least not until @Ruptured Duck brings his to market.

I was hoping Baker had some alternative hardware ideas.

Apparently the TricLED wings mount directly to the body of the Sling, vice the windshield, but i don't know if I want to drill holes.

I'm not for sure sold on the wings yet, but I've seen yours and a couple others, and everyone who has them loves them, so I'm getting more interested. I have 4 or 5 mods in mind on my list, but they're all a bit more expensive, or time-consuming, or both. So I want to make sure I get them right.

I have the TricLED wings. They seemed to work ok, until I put the Madstad windscreen on.. then the angle of the screen seems to push most airflow away from them. And you are correct, I can't take them off now, or I'll leave holes...

Thanks for that. I'll have to see how the width and sides of the Madstad compares to the Ripper.

No real interest in putting holes in my Blue unless it's my only option and I know it's gonna work.

@KayTwo that would be my next comment I thought the angle of the windshield would diminish the flowThanks @Texas T.

I was wondering about that too, because I have that little flare at the sides that looks like maybe it was designed to push the air out a little more, so I don't know how much the wings would affect that.

I've got the F4 tinted 5+ windshield and the Baker 'Air Wings' clamped to the windshield....Keeps cold out and brings cool in...

Everyone who has them seems to love them. I think I would too. But, looking at your pictures, I don't think the attachment bracket would fit on the side of the Ripper windshield. You had to drill holes in the windshield, yes?

Quote from MACAWS

No holes they just clamp on take 2 minutes

Huh. Good news. Only need what, an inch of real estate to fit onto?
