| I used a rubber mallet to slide it on as much as possible. Tried to remove it to file down the back corner that came extremely close to the bike, and it was on so tight I decided to leave it on while I filed it down. Filed down the back edge to given about 1/8 inch clearance with no detriment to appearance. Saw no need for blue locktite at this time. The foot print looks like a huge improvement over stock. Would have given it a higher rating if the intructions would have said what allen wrence size to use for the set screw(I used 3mm) and had the back corner given 1/8 inch clearance without having to be filed down. |
| I put these in new stones after they were mounted, no problems putting them in.Much smoother ride, with no wobble.1st wife even commented on the smooth ride,passed the test:-) |
| I enjoy my Kuryakyn Backrest. It's just at the right height for my stature. I'm 5'9"..and 270lbs. I'm a big guy, I know it. The backrest is comfortable, but I do wish it was just a tad stiffer. I like it well enough to include it on every ride I do alone. |
| My missus loves these. Two positions to ease her foot comfort. I like the chrome, and the fact that she's comfortable. I say that if she's not comfortable..the ride is over. |
| I have this on my ride. The missus loves the cup holder, and I like that she's comfortable back there. After all..if she's not havin' a good time..the ride is over. |

I have these boards. Easy install, no problems. Be sure to red lock-tite your heel-toe mounting bolt. Every now and then, put a drop of oil where your heel toe shifter meets the bike. The chrome finish is nice. I use crystal glow to brighten the shine. |
| 10 stars not on drop down.... I have never felt a better smoother ride. Well worth it and the first 7,000 miles of new tires looked more like only half that. 700-1,000 mile day ride seem easier and less tiring. As for the only low rating above.... I am glad it was mentioned that a car tire was used with the balance ring. A car tire will require more weight than what is inside intended for a GL1800 rated rear tire. There is a reason that the competitor has tire size charts for the correct weight usage. You will notice an improvement on the front (with "trike" kit). |
| I got my new Avon Cobra from Wingstuff and had it installed. Was planing on putting the Dyna Beads threw the stem but that was a no go I beleave they have to be put in the tire with installation. I took out the little insert & let the air out of the tire & put the tube in the tire stem but they would not fall in. Tryed to blow them in also but that did not work so now I will have to wait until I do work on the tire of get a new one. Wish the instruction said they need to be put inside the tire at installation. I recomend putting them in at installation. |
| have tried the Torqmasters, they were good but these Cobra's are far better fit,sound, quality in my estimation. Good purchase. |
| I had the "closed one" on my other wing. This one is a lot better. Had it installed in about 10 min. (it's that easy!) don't tighten anything till you’re finished. |
| Put this on last Friday and it looks great. The install was about the same as the stock cowl which I've had off a few times for oil changes. Because I have fog lights, I had to use the dremmel tool to grind off the fog light covers, no big deal. |

I bought these from WingStuff and had them installed at Venco Wings. my '08 wing was smooth before the installation and the ride was even better after. an interesting note here. I called and spoke to Centramatic before ordering and was advised to run 41 to 42 pounds of air in the front and 42 in the rear - which I now do, +/- a half a pound. at first I was bothered by the construction, but since these are warranted, I chose to ignore that for now and give them a try. would I install them again? YUP! |
