| I read so many reviews about the tabs being weak so I thought right, I'm gonna beat this. But no matter how careful I was, bang, one tab broke. They are worth it because of the look but they've really gotta sort out these tabs ay? 3 stars because of the tabs. |

When you pull off the old knob, the D clip is retained on the radio shaft and it is very hard to see. I finally found them and removed them by using a piece of Kleenex to pinch into the hole around the knob shaft. You will pull straight up and have the small D clip. Be careful!! If you drop it, your screwed! To put into the hole on the new chrome knob, I went inside, used a very small pair of pliers and gripped the D clip, oriented properly to the hole, and pushed down. Had the knob on a hard surface on top of a note pad, so as to not scratch the chrome. Then used the curve of the plier head to push the clip the rest of the way in...they fit very tightly. Once flush in the knob, then take the chrome knob to the bike, orient properly and push on..when you feel it is partially on, take the notebook again, place on top of the knob and gently tap a few times with a small ball peen hammer...any small hammer will do...just enough to finish the seating. It took me several trys to locate those darned clips as they are black! And I dropped one but thankfully found it on the carpet I had placed under the bike! Once I knew the procedure the second knob went on in under 2 minutes but that first one took more than 30 minutes...Anywho they are on and they look great. I gave a five star rating because they work and look nice, but if the seller had not helped me with some correspondence, I might have sent them back due to frustration of not finding the clips at first! Hope my explanation helps another biker out there! |
| Had these installed and love them! They give you that extra stretch in the knees we need as we get a little older and on those longer rides. I did have one MAJOR problem with them however.... I stretched my right leg out shortly after getting them installed and the peg "gave way" and dropped several positions. Can be quite. Unnerving !! What happened was that the center bolt that secures the extension arm into the clamp to the crash bar rotated itself loose and caused the arm to "slip". I put Lock Tight on the bolt and re-secured it (tightened) and it is fine now. I suggest using Lock Tight when you first install these. With the constant "on the pegs pushing down and then releasing the pegs" the arms are moving quite a bit. With that simple fix you should really have a great ride. Keep the Allen wrench with you though on the bike if you need to tighten them back up if necessary. I definitely recommend these. You will love them!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Added this light with the lighted side fender trim. The lights are NOT water proof. Water gets into the lights when I wash the bike but does drain out. Has been installed since April and still working. My one concern was how to run the wires. I removed the front fender before spring to take my time to do this right. First I drilled the holes for the wires and attached the light to the fender. Using silicone caulk, I gradually built up layers (over days) till the wires were completely covered and held to the bottom of the fender. I then soldered the wires together and installed a plug were the fender attaches to the bike. Now I can remove the fender and not have to cut any wires. |

I never liked the dull gray piece on the side cover. This really makes a huge difference on the look of the bike. Installation is easy, just pop off the side cover, remove the screws holding that old nasty grey thing to the painted cover, align the screw holes (being careful not to over tighten), reinstall cover on bike. Nice piece to dress up the side of your bike. |

Having bad knees I need to move my legs around and be able to stretch out. Even the extra room my floorboards give me is not enough to stay comfortable on a long ride. With these I can ride in comfort for long periods of time. They are well made and very solid. These are the ones to have if you are someone with longer legs. They are fully adjustable for your personal preference and take about 30 minutes to install and adjust. If you are an aggressive driver, you may scrap these occasionally but they swivel up when hit at the footrest so your chances of dumping the bike are minimal. It makes a nice early warning device for those drivers. LOL |
| When I got my 2012 Goldwing trike, I got this and my mechanic said it was good, but he recommended Bel-Ray EXP synthetic ester blend 10W-40. So, I use that now about every 5,000-10,000 miles. I am sure both are excellent for the Goldwing. |
| Wish I could add a picture of this product after 52,000 miles of riding. First thing you need to know is that this is very strong stuff. Takes a lot to dent or bend it. It comes in two pieces and the front removable cover is the part that takes the beating. My cover was smashed hard right where the oil filter is placed. The two air vent were smashed in and I believe this would have caused a problem for my oil filter. I also got to close to a cement curb and scraped up the shield along the front side. Its still in place and solid as a rock. I would never be with out it because stuff happens. |
| I have a 2012 Goldwing trike and like this accessory. I have had not issues with rattles or noise. The only thing that is a little challenging is popping off the rubber covers while riding to get something. Not super hard, but takes some practice. The extra bottle holder is great. I have drinking mugs attached to my handlebars, so you have to have a smaller bottle to turn the handlebars and not hit the bottle. Not a big deal. I got the black cubby to go with my trike's black and white theme. |
| Worked okay for about two months and then started to become hard to read because the screen started going out. Warranty is a joke as they already have the attitude that you did something to it. Which I didn't. Not only out the cost of the unit but also the shipping charge back to them. Find something else! |
| I can relate to those who say the chrome plating quality for most of these after market companies leaves much to be desired- Show Chrome, Kury, et al. I will say the cowl cover I have now is beginning to show its age (3 yrs & 58k mi), which is very good for how I ride (fast & aggressive). Showing pitting & typical wear for any plastic part that is directly facing all objects from the road. I hope I am as fortunate w/ the new one I just ordered. |
| I have 58k mi on this solution for those who use a luggage rack and/ or experience chaffing of the interior lid, which will happen- period. Take a sufficient length of ~ 1/4 or 3/8" clear polymer, flexible tubing that can be bought at Home Depot,etc & slide this tubing inside the gasket already on the lid. Wet or lube it & push until it returns to the opening/ slit (gasket is slit at bottom of Lid), then trim as needed. This gives the gasket greater support under loads from luggage rack. has worked for 58k mi thus far. |
