I did not install these last year when I first put the Kury rack on...bad idea to wait. I had to drill out the original holes to allow the rack to fit after the risers were added. The holes are closed and sealed by the washers, but they are much bigger than I would like, although i do not anticipate any problems. I added the risers because our rack bag was rubbing the clearcoat on the trunk lid and I expect this to resolve that issue. The reason I don't give 5 stars is that the rear screws for the risers were too long. When I screwed them in, they stopped before the rack was tightened. Fortunately, I had kept stick-on rubber washers from the original installation. I used these in the inside of the trunk lid in addition to the washers provided and was able to tighten those screws completely. |

Believe everything you read on the windbender site. This thing rocks. I am tall and had lots of turbulence / noise / buffeting with the stock shield. Problem solved. I was pleasantly surprised that the visual distortion due to the slight curve at the top of the shield is minimal. Plus, as they say, you're looking over not through. I like the comfort of my wing, but that's where I draw the line -- seeing the world through a windshield is for cars. I did not get the elec adjust. I don't know if I'll be doing much adjusting, we'll see. It can be a bit of a PITA to line up the cotter pins to secure the upper, but it is simple enough if, like I have done so far, you only want to slide it up a bit for a massive highway day. I'm sure I would tinker with it if I had the elec, but so far so good, plus you keep the ability to adjust the lower just like you do the stock windshield. |
| 5 stars above 5 stars, they changed my riding frequency from 2 times a week to 5 times a week saving me about $40 bucks a week in gas money so they paid for themselves the first week. Yeah they can be a pain to put in or I am a moron, the front tire I had to break the bead which I did on the bike and the back went straight in it only took about fifteen minutes but DAMN it helped a ton. |
| Got two of these and they were a great buy. Good protection and easy to use, especially with the D-ring slots. Haven't verified the water proof claim, but I do not anticipate that to be an issue. |
| These are a must have....very sturdy and wayyyyy better than stock....may last more than a couple tire sets.....Check air with one hand!!!! |
| I like the tactile feel of OEM knobs w/ the rubberized surfaces, which enables better grip w/ gloves on. These are plastic. Were part of a gift from SnL, but will not use & cannot return due to Show Chrome's very user unfriendly vacuum packaging scheme (one reason for low rating). So, if you want these knobs, contact me & I 'll sell to you at cost and pay shipping. |
| Very nice product- chromed metal vs plastic. Be sure to 'dry fit' the part to ensure the contours fit nicely w/o trying to 'stand-off' the panel. Slight pressures applied to the part area(s) in question to increase curvature, etc may be needed; mine was very slight. Rub the entire AC tape surfaces w/ a fingernail to activate the AC tape. Align, then press along all surfaces, should adhere well. |
| perfect fit, easy install, beautiful accent to your wing. |
| easy to install, beautiful to see at night |
| If you ever have a passenger ride with you, they will love you for these. Only problem is you have to move them to open the trunk. Other than that, cant live without them.... |
| This absorbs the fairing chipping road debris way better than the paint. Coated in Armor-all type stuff the bugs come off easily. Good fit. |
| These are money well spent. The SO is gonna love em ! |
