| Installation is a breeze.... obtain a 3 foot tube section at your local hardware store and with the valve stem at the 8 o'clock position and the bike on it's center stand, remove the valve core and secure the clear tube to the valve stem. Add 1 oz of beads to the tube while the tube is supported by the ground and holding up the other end slightly. Carefully apply 3-5 lbs air into the tube and watch the beads flow into the tire. If beads get stuck, lightly tap on the valve stem while holding the tube so the beads back flow into the tube. Continue operation until 2 OZ are added to the tire. Total time is less than 5 minutes to complete adding the beads and inserting the valve stem. Enjoy the ride... |
| Don't get caught thinking any product out there will put a stop to steering stem wobble as it won't. Keep in mind that Honda has as a routine maintenance item to have the steering stem clean and inspected every 8K miles. Oh did I forget to mention you have to retorque during installation???? Yep you guess it, your lower bearing will be dry and your top lock nut has backed off exposing the lower bearing to outside elements. Have tapered bearings installed by a pro and make sure they know how to torque the upper retention nut to the lower. Now that you have taken care of the steering stem, give Dyan Beads a run for there money as the ride is like glass at all speeds. |
| Because the product reviews were so high on this product, I gave them a try. I don't like the feel of cupped tires but will usually ride longer then on them then I should. I now have over 12,000 miles on the front tire with no cupping. The tire had almost 6,000 miles on it when I put the balancers on. When I ordered this product, I spent a good deal of time paying attention to the vibration in the handle bars. I wanted to do the best un-scienctific test I could to compare the difference. Yes, there is now less vibration! At the time of the install of the balancers, my rear tire was needing change and my front tire had 5,500 miles on it. Everything is still smooth and the day I installed them. Good product. |
| Looks great and feels fine. Getting the pieces to fit together was quite a challenge. Loss of heat is not a problem. |
| I ordered the backrest and it stayed in its box for a couple of weeks while I worked up the nerve to do the install myself. As it turned out, I really didn't have anything to worry about. I took my time; watched the install video a few times; read and reread the instructions; took a deep breath and went for it. The seat looks and feels great. A must have! |
| No problem installing. Before drilling...something didn't look right so I made my own template. Great for directing or deflecting air as needed. Only problem is they tend to crack easily. Have had to replace both lower shields within first year. Be careful not to tighten too much. |
| Great for cold weather and rain...keeps both off the shins. I live in Houston and during the intense heat I remove them as they block air movement making it hotter on the legs. I put the deflectors under the mirrors too and they work great in both cold and hot weather to either deflect the cold and rain or allow air flow. |
| Adds a nice touch and two minutes to install. |
| This is a must if you want to keep the remote from bouncing all over the place. |
| Now that I have the set I wonder how I managed without them. No more looking for an item as I used to do with my other bikes as you see it thru the mess. Very easy to install. Great Product! |
| Looks great! Took a minute to install. |
| REPLACED THE OEM DUNLOPS WITH THESE ABOUT 500 MILES AGO, AND THE DIFFERENCE IS DRAMATIC. I NO LONGER FEEL LIKE I'M ON ICE WHEN THE ROAD IS WET OR WHEN I HAVE TO VENTURE OFF THE PAVEMENT. INSTEAD, I FEEL LIKE I'M RIDING ON RAILS - VERY SMOOTH RAILS! OBVIOUSLY, I CAN'T SPEAK TO THE MILEAGE YET, BUT IF IT IS AT ALL REASONABLE, I'LL BE STICKING WITH BRIDGESTONES. |
