| Wrote about these in October of last year. I got 11,283 miles on the rear and have good tread left on the front. Going on a trip into Canada and then thru Montana and Wyoming. Have no hesitation with riding on these tires! I ride very agressively and can say that I see little difference in these 'Stones and the Dunlop E-3'S. I'll put the $100 savings to a good use. |
| Since the last review, I have taken a 1000 mile trip in very hot temperatures. The air wings work great and make riding in hot weather much more comfortable. I still say throw away the drill bit, but 5 stars for performance. |
| These grips are really nice and good looking. I like larger grips then the factory less hand cramps. Any draw back would be they are so large that the clutch pull is shorten. I only had it happen one time when I started my bike while it was in 1st grear and it wanted to go like the clutch was not pulled in, I was able to hold the bike with the front brake killed the engine and put in neutral and then started again and put into gear and it was fine. I had installed new levers and dont see any difference between new levers and factory. They dont tell you what levers they recommend but I used the ones they dont recommend. They are a little hard to install but just take your time, use the window cleaner like they say and also the zip ties like the say to get the grips to snal togther and it will be fine. |
| No directions needed to install this. It fits in place and the cover locks down just like the factory cover. The drink holder is the right size for water bottle or small drink. Handy and looks good. |
| I ride an 05 Wing based on the coast in Mendocino County, CA, and chew up tires every 4000 to 5000 miles, depending on the brand. It takes me at least 2 hours to get to anything that resembles a straight road, and my tires end up a mess. Also have a cellphone that I use as a GPS mounted on the left handlebar, and it constantly vibrates out of position. I put these balancers on and instantly felt the bike go to smooth as glass mode when I got up to speed, with no vibration whatsoever on the GPS. I can't wait to see what kind of mileage I'll get out of my tires now. Very impressive !! |

I purchased my first F4 in June of 2011. I'm 6'3" with hearing problems and needed the extra 4". Not only is it the best windshield I've ever had, it is the easiest to keep clean and wears as advertised. I noticed two weeks ago that it was beginning to delaminate. I'm heading out in two days for a 7000mile roadtrip across the country, so I decided to find out what my options were. First, Don in service, advised me that I was within my warranty period and he offered to replace the F4 at half cost. Secondly, he offered to install it if I dropped by their office in Ohio. That wouldn't work, so he then called me back and offered to meet me on my route, about an hour south of their office, and install it. I have not been this impressed with customer service in decades. Thanks, F4 Customs! |
| The grips installed well. However, I also ordered the Black Throttle Boss to go with (6318) and they do not fit the 6383 grips for heated grips... the only throttle boss that fits is the chrome 6242 or 6310. If you want to add the end weights you will also need smooth accent rings, and these are also not available in black. (chrome 6363, and endweight black 6339)If you want to use the stock end caps with the throttle boss, don't forget to order longer screws (they come with the end weights). I am disappointed with Kuryakyn as I really like the sleek black look and it will be spoiled with the interuption of the chrome accent ring and boss. |
| You can't go wrong with this easy dress up kit. It finishes the tail end of my 2012 beautifully. I always suggest using a heat gun on low setting to warm and activate the adhesive for an instant solid adhesion. |
| Got these and paid the $10 for installation at Wing Ding this year. After riding almost 500 miles with them I think they are great. I watched the guys at Baker built install these in about 10 minutes time and it seems simple enough as long as you are willing to drill into your bike which I have never been afraid of, but for ten bucks, who would say no. I have the dark tint with black brackets on an 07 Blue Goldwing and they look great. The black blends nicely with the blue and doesn't detract making it look like someone added more chrome just for the sake of adding chrome. For cold airflow, open the top vent and keep the bottom closed. Warm air is just the opposite and I'm looking forward to seeing how well they work in the winter months as I ride year round here in Virginia. |
| I like the chrome but I have an Aerostich suit and my suit rubbing at the ankle scratched these first thing... |
| easy install about30min. wife has long legs and bad hips could only ride about 1hr and had to take a break,now she can go a few hours before we take a break.she says with the little bit of extra stretch makes a world of difference |
| I bought the floorboards and heel/toes shifter kit from Kuryakyn along with the kickstand and extender. Floorboard great, kickstand great in keeping the bike more upright over the OEM, but the extender, disappointed. No matter how I position the extender, I scrape on normal cornering in town. I live in Colorado and take full advantage of our mountain roads. I have had this three days, and have started wearing down the extender lower corner. I scrape my floorboards when carving, with the extender, I scrape sooner and some of my reaction has been to back off my riding. Not going to happen. Not sure what to do short of removing it. |
