Triple Chrome Plated Adjustable Flip Up Armrests for GL1800
ITEM CODE: RIGL18094, SKU: RIGL18094

Great product, so far.
| I recently installed these arm rests and are very satisfied with them. I have not had them on long enough for the rust issues others have mentioned to be a factor. Perhaps in time it will be. But for now, my wife really loves them, and the installation was pretty straight forward. The only issue there was that it didn't seem like the bend the mounting brackets came with matched the bend on my bike between the trunk and the speaker housings. So I added a bit to the bend and they matched up perfectly. A minor amount of custom fitting. Otherwise, they mounted easily enough - measure twice, drill once. I found it helpful to have someone hold them in place as I measured where the holes were to go. Note: these are for arms only, not for body weight. I can see where if too much weight was applied to them that they would likely fail or deform. I had to instruct my wife to not use these to steady herself when mounting or dismounting. Her initial instinct was to do that. We do like the fact that these remain laterally secure v. the ones that rotate outward. Egress is the only complaint others have mentioned should the need arise to get off the bike quickly. The ones that rotate laterally do avoid that potential issue. If that's a concern for you, you may wish to give it some thought. For us, I can only say that if she needs to depart the bike quickly, I trust she'll make it happen as necessary. |

So far, so good. Satisfied with this product.
| I received this product with the intention of installing on the Rivco arm rests I also ordered. Installation was simple, but with the variety of hardware options and no directions, I guessed at which hardware combination to use. Evidently I chose correctly, because the looseness others have mentioned has not been a factor for me. I did put some lock-tite on the bolt that mounts to the bracket. So far, it remains secure and I cannot wiggle it loose. My only reason for four stars v. five is no directions plus the pad that is supposed to live in the bottom of the cup holder lifts out if the cup holder is empty. On the first ride after installing I almost lost the base pad. I've since taken it out and store it in the small passenger storage compartment so it's available whenever we need it. My wife is happy with her new cup holder, and we all know that if she's happy, we're happy. |
