Did alot of reading on this hitch before I bought it. There instructions on the web on how to install. The instruction that comes with it sucks. I also read alot of reviews in other place so real bad. But now so. You don't need to remove or loosen the mufflers take the battery cover off or the passengers floor boards. Just he crash bars and the panel over it, plus the rear panel. The hard part was to get all 4 screws in the H bracket to match up. Took about an hour with no help. |
| Wow I'm amazed how this item makes the trunk and rear end of my GL1800 looks. It enriches the rear end nicely. Had to buy it early and be the first to show it's style. |
| Don't buy this side until you can afford to get the other side to match. If they came as a set, that would even be better. Be sure they test fit before peeling the backing off. It is very sticky. I put the radio panel piece on at the same time, and glad I did. This area now looks complete. Chrome finish is very good, also. |

| Looks sweet compared to the black it covers up. I also put the chrome on the side panels at the same time. All three look good together. Like others have said, make sure it is shaped right before sticking it down. Don't get discouraged, it took me an hour+ to get it bent to fit. |
| Put both trunk and saddlebag lights on at the same time. Took me a couple hours at a liesurely pace. No surprises during install. I dressed the screw holes with the closest size bit I had, and ran all screws in/out before assembly. Had no broblems with broken plastic. The only improvement I would suggest is for the saddlebag wiring to be plug-and-play. There is enough room in the tail light housings for it. All in all, a five-star item. Really dresses up those areas of the bike. Wingstuff delivery very prompt. Thanks!! |
| Nice bling for a "dead" area of the bike. Install is a snap. Best price I could find on the net. |
| Just an update to my last review. Still going great.I added 2 poles on each outer corner about 24 inches long. now when I go on a trip I just slip my luggage (largest type that is carry-on legal)behind the poles and just one bungie cord wrapped around the poles and luggage holds it all together. |

Well friends I know that my opinion is going to be unpopular to the vertically challenged but please try to understand that this is being written by someone who is 6'4" tall and 255lbs, for like sized motorcyclists. The back rest appears to be of good construction and aside from the nightmare I had trying to pull the (backrest) bars apart to lock it into place the poor quality screws are my only other gripe. The screws stripped out (which is par for the course with Kuryakyn) during install so I have to go and find replacements. I knew that as big as I am I would have to put the backrest on, the 3rd position. Once it was mounted I took my trusty wing for a ride. The Kuryakyn backrest ruined the most comfortable motorcycle I had ever driven. Even at the furthest back position I am shoved too far forward kinking my legs into a painful position. My highway pegs are as far forward as they can go and now they are too close to me! I am trying to find out if I can bend the bars back a half an inch too make it useable but the current opinion is that it's not possible without compromising the integrity of the backrest. If you are a large man as am I, try anything other than the Kuryakyn backrest. For those of you out there who are shorter I am sure its a fine product and I will gladly sell you mine! SERIOUSLY! |
| I agree with the staff, this is well worth the price. I never did like the remote bouncing and sliding around on the dash all day. This solved that. |
| Nice little piece of crome. This one is chromed metal not plastic. One thing to consider is if you have a trailer light plug mounted to the fender, this might not fit like it should. My plug was mounted low enough that I could only install this with about half the tape on the fender. So far it's holding. That tape is pretty tenacious. |
| Love the look of the Boards and the missus liked the feel. Now to get her out for a ride and really test them. I agree that the Springs, ball bearing should come included, I will be upgrading the springs as the Left Board will not stay up in turns. Thanks to the other product reviewers their tips made my install a lot faster and easier. |
