A necessary add-on, but make sure you follow the "marked hole" on the outside of the pocket when you start drilling ... if you deviate too much, you will not get the pocket back in correctly. As others have stated, not sure why this miniscule part was omitted from the standard package??? Seems pretty basic when you consider all of the other high-tech gadgets already included!! I also agree with the other comments to use the correct hole-saw or staggered "Christmas-tree" bit - makes install so much easier as it is all metric. |

Excellent product, depending on your personal measurements. For me, the last position aft is most comfortable, however, with any passenger of adult size, you need to move it up a bit to give them some breathing room, which then may crowd the driver a bit (Again, depending on your dimensions). Nice pocket on the back of the seat for small item storage, unit folds forward to allow passenger unabstructed seat mounting; however, driver has to learn to "hike the leg" over the saddle and "kinda jump into or away from the seated position" during mount and dismount ..... Installation was very simple - as long as you can line-up the seat bolts to go through the back-rest mounting brackets, through the passenger hand-rails, and then into the seat frame mounts .... may take some minor adjusting to get those bolts just perfectly aligned. Adjusting the back-rest position on the three position mount is very simple - just a turn of the knob from locked to unlocked, and you can re-set to any of the three positions. Overall, a 30 min add-on, would have been less if I could get the bolts to line up a little better, but I think that was just me. 100% added comfort - but as noted above, the driver and passenger dimensions do make a difference as to where you will set this back-rest within the 3 provided positions. |

I added both the trunk and saddle bag mouldings and they look excellent, both day and night. The trunk moulding "running lights" are a bit dimmer than the saddle bag lights, but this is compensated for when you hit the brakes, as the trunk lights are running and brake lights (Saddle bags are just running lights). Wish they would have integrated turn signals into the rear-facing lights of both the trunk and saddle bags .... but, oh well - still nice! Installation was covered well in the directions - took me about an hour and a half. Take your time to remove the correct screws and not over-tighten. Tips I would suggest: Remove the saddle-bag "limit string" and the "hydraulic connection" attachments to gain better access to the moulding screw that is at the rear of the saddle bag lid - if not, you will find yourself struggling for a good grip on a short screw driver to remove the stock moulding and also when replacing the screw on the new moulding. Also note that you will need to firmly push the front "receptor stud" of the new moulding tightly into the saddle bag cover before tightening the screw. Aside from the above, a great affect for the $$. Not very bright during the day, but outstanding at night! |
| Updating my comment and rating. After riding at night, these are terrible. They are not very bright at night. Will be replacing with Autozone H7/55W Sylvania SilverStar bulbs. These Kuryakyn bulbs are over priced. Any retailer will sell a pair for less than Kuryakyn's cost. I assure you that you are better off buying the brand I just bought, unless you don't mind a dim bulb at night. |
| Fits great and keeps things put inside the trunk and side bags. Things don't rattle! |
| This product does exactly what it is designed for. It was easy to install, no problems. The response in lane changing at highway speed is great, what a difference. It really tightened up the steering at slow speeds like slow traffic or in a parking lot. Everyone needs one of these! |

Installed a new set of Cobras on different Wings, my 04 & my friends 05, prior to going to Sturgis this year. 5500 mi later both rear tires where severly cupped & out of round. we both used Dyna-Beads 2 oz in each wheel. I developed a terrible wobble @ 6k mi, bear in mind we rode mostly hi-way, 2 up, I towed my Bushtec Turbo. the pressure was maintained @ 41-42 psi in the rear tires. just orderd a rear Bridgestone 70 series rear. will you posted on the Stones, we are not aggresive riders. this is the 2nd set of Cobras that cupped. BTW, the front tires are like new, no cupping, neither bike has any suspension mods, pure stock. once I have the rear Cobra dis-mounted I w/ CAREFULLY check for delamination on the inside of the tire, I will then proceed from there. |
| These windshields are Slipstreamer brand, their name/sticker is on the shield. I purchased the clear/touring/slant back/Tulsa style/no vent, the shield is wider than OEM and approx 7" taller. My shield has the black strip along the bottom edge, not as wide or nice as the OEM though. The clarity is pretty good for an inexpensive shield, a lot cheaper than its competitors. |
| Great product, noticed the difference the moment I started down the road. Had new Dunlop Elite tires and the balancers installed and could not be more pleased. No more low speed shimmy. Worth the money and the 5 stars. Jim |
| These were a great investment for my 2001 Goldwing Trike. Took me about 10 minutes to get used to the change in shifting, but after that everything was great. I highly recommend these if you own a trike. |
| Put these on about a year ago (16,000 miles)and still all working and a lot brighter than factory. I would like to find the same for the trunk. |
