| Ok, so there's one thing that I'm not entirely sure about with these and that's the fact that they replace the screw that goes into the bottom of the mirror itself, but given the configuration, thats really the best way to bolt them on short of drilling holes. The instructions say to add loctite though which I did, so it shouldn't be a problem. The difference between having these and not having them when it's 20 degrees F out is night and day. My finger tips no longer get the blast of wind even through my gloves. They are great.I would recommend them to everyone. The position "ratchet" system is the basic plastic gear type on plastic gear type that holds it in place, and it works nicely to hold them in place even up to about 90 mph (that i've tested). over all, A+ |
| These are easy to install and really look good |
| As others have said this needs the 35mm screws to fit it properly. as the 30mm screws are just to short. Once on it looks good |
| This was easy to install good for charging up your iPod and phones |
| Bought 2 of these. One for each side of the bike. They looked good. Bit of a PITA getting the antenna clocked right but after that they did look nice, until today. I rode under a branch, not real low because I didn't have to duck but it pulled the antenna's back a bit. Parked the bike and noticed the flag poles where gone. Both of them snapped off at the pivot. Almost no contact at all as the antennas were not bent at all afterwards. Very unhappy with these. They were less than 2 weeks old. |
| J&M just makes quality product that fits like a glove. It's that simple. |
| This kit made the lights brighter and whiter. I had upgraded my headlamps to HIDs and it made the fog lights look yellow. Much better now! |
| Nice bag at a great price! |
| I bought this along with the black ISO grips and bar weights. It went on fine and the screws I needed to install them properly were included with the bar weights, but if you don't have bar weights, you get the screws you need with the throttle boss. It is REALLY big on the throttle. I would say that it is about 1/2 the length of the throttle. It adjusts with 4 large "slots" cut around the mounting screws allowing it a wide but limited range of motion. Depending on how you install your grips, I can see having a little difficulty finding a good "sweet spot" for maximum comfort. And I found that where I have it installed for comfort on the highway, it gets in my way a little bit with rolling off the throttle and grabbing the brake lever. That was the only reason for the 4 stars. I might recommend the smaller version for the same result and it would be a lot less obtrusive during braking. I would even go as far as to say that if you don't have arthritis, you would probably like the smaller version better. If I decide to try it, I will review again. As far as doing what it's supposed to do, it allows me to release my death grip on the throttle and rest my palm on the boss to keep the throttle open when using the cruise control is inconvenient. |
| They do finish up the look of the black ISO grips very nicely. The powder coat seems thick and durable. I can't comment much on it stopping vibration because I put them on at the same time as the ISO grips, but I don't feel any vibration in the handlebars at all. Comes with a ton of screws so that if you get the throttle boss, you will have the proper extra-long screws you need to install the bar weight on the throttle side. |

These grips look just awesome on my bike. I like chrome, but not up on the console where it reflects and blinds me. Everything near the handlebars is black and the only reason I was still using the stock grips was because I didn't want the only chrome thing up there to be the grips. These were a perfect solution and LONG overdue to the market. Installation was as straightforward as any other grip, but BEWARE! the glue will set FAST!!! I wound up spending $120 on a set of $60 grips. The left one went on perfect, but the throttle side glue set at about 1/2" shy of being installed. One thing to note when installing the throttle side, when you slide it on, it will stop before it hits the switch housing, so don't try to "finese" it in there, jam it home quickly before the glue sets, and USE that clockwise (forward) twisting motion. On the second grip (after a trip to the honda dealer to replace the throttle sleeve)I did a couple of "trial runs" of sliding the grip onto the sleeve without the glue, then when it was time to glue it on, I used about 1/3 the tube instead of the whole thing and I tried to put the glue at least half way into the grip, and not near the top so that I could at least get the grip about half way on before I was racing the glue. Trust me, with this glue they give you, you don't need much to secure the grip to the handlebars! After a lot of swearing and a new set of grips (anyone want to buy a new, uninstalled left black iso grip?) they look awesome and feel fantastic. They have excellent tactile feel and the increased size really do make it more comfortable for my hands. I also installed the bar end weights and the throttle boss. A great combination! I love them! |

My windshield (-2) just arrived and I will comment on that in a later update when temps get above freezing. I wanted to comment on the customer service of Wingstuff. I had ordered my windshield about 2 weeks ago and with my typical luck as soon as it arrived I was browsing through the website and seen they were selling it for 10% off. I figured what the heck and contacted them. Since I had literally just ordered the same thing a week or two prior and was hoping I could still qualify for the discount. That same day Rodney had emailed me back saying that they would gladly refund the difference and credit the money back to my account, which they had done the same day. Yes I know this is only $30 difference but it is more the point that they were willing to honor the sale, even though they could have just as easily said NO and been done with it. I just think this speaks volumes of wingstuff and the staff taking care of us the customers and wanted to give credit where credit is due. Again thank you Wingstuff for the superb customer service that you have shown me over the last few years. It is the small things like this that keep people |
