Chrome Trunk Handle w/Gold Wing Logo
ITEM CODE: HO08U94MCA100, SKU: HO08U94MCA100

| Instructions said use blocks of wood to hold up trunk, when in fact the two foam packing pieces are purpose designed for that job. Make sure u stretch the template before taping down. Mark holes exact and dig deep with very sharp tool or tip of drywall screw. I started with 1/16 inch bit, then worked up to 1/4 inch. When drilling, new bits help and note that the 3 protrusions are parallel to each other in the horizontal plane and fit pointing slightly downward. Did not have the 8mm bit so just carefully worked the 1/4 bit to enlarge. 5/16 is too big and 9/32 may be closer. Tightened carefully the screws for a snug flush fit, top and bottom. You then shud have a non-flimsy add-on. Actually seems to reinforce the flexible trunk lip. For a piece of lightweight plastic looks and works great. |

| I went for these a year ago for looks and that part works. Added the helmet locks and they are functional, but flimsy and require hangers because the D ring just barely won't fit. The grip installation was a challenge and I lost 75% of the heat transfer (up here in Canada that's no small concession). Good news - I can now usefully spend my time at red lights tucking the rubbers back in. Maybe someday will reinstall them using my own methology. Along with the crap $40 Kury R/S fairing pouch I am staying away from all accessories till I see one mounted and happy on someone else's gwing. |
