Aero Peg Disaster
| I purchased these and was extremely pleased with the product until I pulled into a gas station to fuel up and bumped into the vertical pole that protects the pump. Well the peg held i[ fine but the impact cracked the valve cover as as Twilight experienced, the oil was flowing out. I see that not just myself but another riding friend of mine had the same experience when he dropped his bike. I spoke to Rivco and their answer to my suggestion of a redesign to make the pegs moveable vertically like most pegs are like I was told they can not be responsible for accidents caused any a rider. I am not looking to point the blame on the product. I was just looking to see if a redesign would be possible so this issue would not happen again to other riders. All I can say about this product is give some serious thought if you wish to run the risk of causing yourself a problem. |

RIVCO AEROPEGS - A DISASTER
| Installed the aeropegs on my 2014 Goldwing 1800. The other day I was parking the bike in my garage and the kickstand did not hold correctly so the bike tipped over. The aeropeg was extended as I just came in from a ride. As the peg hit the floor I heard and crack and all of a sudden all of the engine oil drained out on my garage floor. Upon further inspection I noticed the metal peg had put enough pressure on the side on the cover that it cracked the aluminum side cover that covers the timing chain and spark plugs thereby releasing the oil and now I have a cracked cover that needs to be replaced. I am not sure why the design of these pegs does not have the ability for them to fold up in the event of a bike leaning over. Interestingly enough I mentioned this to a friend of mine who also has a Goldwing and experienced the same issue. He said that during his trip to Texas last month the same thing. My suggestion is DO NOT Add these to your Goldwing. It's only a matter of time if your bike goes over that you will end up with a costly repair. |
