Electrical connections could be better quality, however I sealed each with heat shrink tape and installed all wiring inside 1/4†wire loom for additional protection. The double stick tape for the on off switch is cheap. One of the LED lamps was defective out of the box. I called Rivco and they wanted to test the defective lamp at their facility before sending a replacement. That idea sucks! I wanted a replacement lamp sent out and would gladly return the defect with their return label. I called Wingstuff and spoke to Mark. He called me back an hour later and said Rivco told him they would send a replacement as soon as I cut the cable off the lamp to show it was destroyed and email a photo. Thanks Mark!! Install takes about an hour. I would recommend that you test each lamp prior to installation and complete the mechanical adjustments, including installing the cowl covers before making final electrical connections. The replacement lamp sent out had the attaching bracket between the heat sink and lamp body installed backwards, causing the lamp to stick out 3/8†outside the cover. Once I turned it around it fit perfectly inside the cover. The lens covers are thin, so we’ll see how well they hold up. |

After riding from CA to NC and suffering from sore-as-hell knees, I knew I'd have to find a highway peg solution that lets me stretch out my legs. I'm 5'10" with a 32" inseam, fyi. My 2010 is very clean and uncluttered, so since I also didn't want a bunch of hardware hanging off the engine guards the Aero pegs got my attention right away. I ruled out the chrome finish because I'm not a big chrome guy and they were $100 more -- which BTW, I get; chrome adds a whole dimension of production yield and scrap cost. I was tempted by the black but some of the reviews said they turn purple after a while, and that would make me nuts. So I went with the anodized silver. For $300, these are a terrific value. They're made of substantial hunks of machined aluminum and the fit and finish are flawless. Even the feel of the swing out pegs is excellent, so the mating surfaces must be carefully monitored. The installation took me 15 minutes. The instructions are totally clear. The only thing I did wrong was that I was in a hurry to remove the stock trim and I bent one of them far enough to crack the chrome plating slightly. Damn. I learned on the other side. Apparently, Aero has made a couple of welcome improvements to the product: (1) they've cut a breakaway notch on the bottom of the pegs so if you do drop the bike, they'll snap off before damaging the valve covers, and (2) they are not offset anymore. At least not as far as I can tell -- my legs are evenly stretched out. I mounted the pegs in the front-most position. This allows me to completely straighten my legs -- the whole reason I bought these things. I'm certain this is going to make a huge difference over the long haul -- I'm doing a 4 hour ride this week and then I'll know for sure. If anything comes up, I'll return to this review and update it. So to summarize: they're perfectly integrated appearance-wise, the quality and engineering is obvious, and they've solved my comfort issue completely. I'm very satisfied overall. Great purchase. |

Agree with other reviewer. This antenna is a PoS This Add-On antenna wobbles and cannot be adjusted to be firm. Poor design. Lock pin does nothing. 2nd attempt with manufacturer. Im done. Spend extra money and get factory unit. |
| I have these on my 06 Wing for years love them so I bought a set of Trunk ones for my newly acquired 2005 Trike... wires are not long enough to reach up under the seat, I had to tap into rear taillights to hook them up, don't know if they make a longer wire for Trikes that's why 4 stars |
| Grips look great as long as you have the patience of a saint when installing them. Only broke one screw head off so feel lucky. These could be much better for the money. I like them even tho slightly larger than their standard grips. Do like the throttle boss |

I had these vertical rear lights installed on my 2016 Goldwing and I gotten more complements on how much the back of my Goldwing is lite up. I would highly recommend these lights, you can never have enough lights |
| Received as a Christmas gift. Snow is slowly going away-time to install, but where? There is not enough room where the stock horn is located. A little bit of thinking, came up with a solution. There is a tab on the engine guard which is perfect for mounting this horn. Looks good, sounds better. If I was a machinist, I could make mounts look OE. I am simply a DIY'r with spare stuff laying around the garage and a few more weeks before the season starts. |
| Had been waiting for these fitting is SO simple took less than 5mins and work just as well as the old footwings on my 2012 very very good :) :) :) |
| Fitted them today so simple to fit don't even have to use the template cuts all the wind you want and then some GREAT product :) :) :) |

I own a 2018 Yamaha Star Venture Transcontinental that comes with this Bridgestone tire combination from the factory. I currently have 18,308 miles on the motorcycle. I replaced the factory rear tire at 3,291 miles because of a screw in the rear tire. I have 15,017 miles on the replacement rear tire. I had a problem of every time I went to the dealer they would find a screw or nail in the rear tire. The second tire only had 700 miles on it when it was at the dealer. To make a long story short I am sure the screws and nails were being punched into the rear tire by the service personnel in the shop as I have no issues with screws or nails in the rear tire unless it goes to that dealer. On to the tires, I plugged the second tire and it has not leaked at all, I know some will say my motorcycle is going to explode riding down the road because I plugged the tire but it has been fine. These tires handle very well, I have not had any issues with handling in the dry or the wet. Wear is very good, the front tire has a full 18,308 miles on it and the rear tire has 15,017 miles on it and still have 4/32's tread on the rear tire. I have confidence these tires can go 20,000 miles before you would have to replace the rear tire. The Yamaha Star Venture Transcontinental is a heavy motorcycle that weighs 963 pounds so that says a lot about how durable and good these tires are. Performance wise the Yamaha Star Venture 1854cc V-Twin out preforms my 1989 GL1500 Goldwing, 2013 Victory Cross Country Tour and 2016 Harley Davidson Ultra Limited. Ride comfort is very good with these Bridgestone tires as well, overall I don't think you can find a better tire for these big touring motorcycles. If not for having the rear tire plugged I would run the rear tire farther. I highly recommend these Bridgestone G852/G853 tires. |
| This extender was installed on my bike by the previous owner. Since I've taken possession of the bike, I've noticed it is very loose as mentioned in other reviews. Further, I have literally CUT my ankle several times due to how sharp the edge is from having been scraped. I will be finding a different solution. This is a flawed design and completely unacceptable. |
| Put these on along with some Elite 4 tires. I've only been getting about 8000 miles out of a set of tires, Bridgestone, Elite 3. It will be interesting to see what I get out of the Elite 4 with the balancers. |
