I had these installed by WingStuff and what a difference! The ride is much smoother and the vibration (although slight) that I felt through the right handlebar has all but disappeared. My front tire was (prior to the install) showing some uneven wear, but the more I ride, the more that seems to be correcting itself. I spoke to Geoff, the Centramatic rep, prior to the installation and was told these can help correct wear issues. The man knows his business. After putting about 800 miles on the bike Charlie (in service at WingStuff) even noticed the tire looks like it's correcting. As ekurtike mentioned, watch your speed. After leaving WingStuff and getting on the freeway I was frustrated that traffic was moving so slowly. I looked down and saw I was doing 85. Now that's smooth. I know of one person who put on new tires and the Centramatics and now has 13k on the tires. Yup. The rear too. Tires are still in good shape. If you're on the fence, jump off and get a set. Expensive? A bit. But these are without doubt one of the best investments I've made. Or, you can go over to the GWRRA tech board, ask the question, and listen to all the old codgers, who have never used them, tell you they don't work and how they've been riding since 19 diggity three and only use rocks and spit to balance they're tires. I'll take the Centramatics. |
| WOW !! What a diff these make very nice and not as hard as it seams 2 install here is a little trick when u put the bottom bracket on the hole closest 2 the bike is where the bracket on the cover bolts on if u take out the 3 small screws and mount the bracket finger tight then put all the rest 2gether then put the 3 screws n from the bottom it is so much faster and easier 2 install and as far as the bolt short bolts go where the finder bolts on long bolts go through the cover there is 2 on each side Just take ur time and u will have no problem holes will line up as long as u dont tighten the bolts till everything is n place Hope this helps |
| Back rest is great. I did however run into an issue with my Honda warranty. When my heated seat stopped working it was determined to be a wiring issue and had nothing to do with the installed backrest. But because the seat had been modified Honda refused to warranty the seat. Tough lesson learned. |
| OMG !!! easy as pie 2 install and looks Gr8 on my trike but take it from me if u have a trike us part # ku3914 not ku3913 it fits perfect and well save u lots of hassel puting them on and if u put just a little bit of lube on the rubbers it will go much easier |
| Love these. I will have to reinstall it again I just noticed the screws have worked there way out from the vibration of the trunk lid. I will put lock nut on them and I have also installed the rubber groments for the trunk hope that stops some of the vibration. Still 5 stars to me awesome. |
| I installed them after Xmas it was a little cold hard to install. the paper layout that you lay out for the holes to be drilled was off so make sure you can reach them from underneath. If you put them where theres a dubble wall they will be hard to get to from the bottem to pull them threw. Lost one already I do beleave they are about 1/4 to tall. The back ones are slanted over now. as long as my latch dosen't get damaged its cool. |
| I've actually never written a review before but on these,I felt compelled. To start with, this is a fine produst as far as looks and quality; however you should think twice before purchasing.I had been riding a cruizer with floorboards for the last nine years so the feel of pegs was not what I wanted so I immediately bought the floorboards. Well the Goldwing (for my size) just isn't designed for floorboards. The mounts are too far back to stretch your legs out (the engine of course causes this) and it really puts your foot at an odd angle to heel shift. Also even though my shoe is only a 10&1/2 there is insufficient room for my foot between the toe and heel shifter. It takes some getting use to to easily find room for your toe between the brake and the valve cover and if vertically challenged (30 in. inseam) it is difficult to get your feet flat on the ground with the floorboars down. After all that, would I buy them again? Not without trying a lot of other things first. I'm not recommending that you don't buy these, I'm just suggesting that you "Try Em before you Buy Em" or think long and hard. A lot of money for us poor boys. By the way, I haven't taken mine off. |
| I guess Santa must have peeked at my wish list this year - or should I say Mrs. Santa. These frame covers are a tremendous improvment over the dull grey stock covers. Well made and fairly priced. A real winner. |
| Rattling sound from the rear is gone when riding rough pavements and it closes in a solid sound shut. When you open it the trunk lid pops up right away. |
| This is an outstanding piece of equipment. No ugly BARS to step over or for your passenger to deal with and a perfect match to the OEM seat pattern. Installation is really quite simple, HOWEVER, unless you are an accomplished mechanic or "very" good with your hands you should not attempt to install it yourself. I was able to install in thirty minutes but I have been a mechanic for forty-five years and even with that I treaded slowly. I would recommend this unit to anyone who is into long distance riding. |
| Great when new. Started to get the growl in the turns at about 8,000 miles nothing crazy just annoying. Switched them out at about 11,000 miles. I could have got another thousand or so miles out of them. Didn't want to push my luck. Trying out Avons this time. Only have a thousand miles or so on the Avons, so far Fantastic. |
| Way cool, hope i never need it. I did try it on a flat car tire. Easy to follow instructions works in seconds. |
