| WOW, what a relief. No more shaking the hands to wake them up with the small stock grips. It took me about 5 minutes to install both over the grips but a bit longer to get them to snap together. I used a towel and 440 channel lock pliers to ease them together. I turned on the heat to level 5 and yes it is diminished but I always wear full gloves when I ride. Let's see if the Kuryakyn chrome holds up! |
| Ditto to what Keith said about this vest. To add: The first time I soaked the vest I noticed no slime!! The large pocket in the front comes in handy too. Something else I noticed right away; it does not have to fit tight to cool. With the vent on the windshield open and traveling at highway speeds I was very comfortable with temps in high 90's. |
| I just had my Bridgestones put on a couple of days ago and boy, what a difference from the Dunlops!! Smooth ride, grips extremely well in turns. So far i'm loving them. |
| Good looking easy to fit need a pit or a ramp must be able to get under the bike, on the front part I had to use two self tapping screws to keep the two out side edges together. |

I developed cervical disc bulges so had to go to half helmet. I use CB and listen to music through my FF helmet, so needed a good set for HH. Came across this one and was worried about the price (considering J&M wants $250 for "stereo quality sound" version. BUT I was very, very surprised at the quality of music sound!! Outstanding and of equal quality to the J&M stereo set in my FF. Other riders say CB sound is normal. HOWEVER ONLY ONE PROBLEM. Who ever designed these headsets has not worn them for more than an hour. They don't stay on ears well, and begin pressing your ear lobe to the point of pain. I have learned to bend the heck out of them, then went a step further and glued a 1 inch thickness of foam to the ear pieces and now they are comfortable (sort of). I DO agree with the other reviewer, you need to get a clip and hold the cord to your coat or vest to take pressure off the left ear piece. For the money I would recommend them, wish they were of different design. I'll probably do a little more modifications to these this winter. |
| I had them installed when I bought my bike in 2007 and have not been sorry. The only problem is you must lift your left side in order to put your kick stand down. Be gentle in shifting or you will break your shifting fork inside the transmission, mother Honda will not warrenty if you show up at the dealer with Kuryanyn Floorboards. |
| Had these installed on the bike before I picked it up. They work great and light up the area around the bike nicely. |

Second review, I wish to add a bit of information to my first review of the Progressive Fork Springs. I found if you cut the preload spacers that come with the OEM springs, lighter or smaller riders can enjoy the benefits of the Progressive spring. I trimmed 1 inch off the preload spacers and the springs work fine. The bike doesn't dive when braking, the ride is a bit firmer but you still have a nice comfortable ride with a frontend that will work well when are cornering or if you just a dip or bump in the road as we have plenty of those here in the midwest. If you want a firmer ride just cut less of the preload spacer. To give you a starting point I am 5'8" 175, you can make your adjustments from there. Good Luck, have a safe ride! |

HAD TO HAVE SOMETHING FOR WIFE AS I PROMISED HER I WOULD BEFORE ROADTRIP THIS YEAR.EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED,,BETTER HALF LOVES THEM!! IT DOES TAKE TIME TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS BUT WORTH EVERY MINUTE WHEN FINISHED. GREAT LOOK AND BEST OF DOESN'T INTERFERE WITH GETTING INTO TRUNK LIKE OTHER STYLES!!! 2 THUMBS UP!!! |
| I cant believe that they would not include the spring and ball. But I was able to change it without much trouble. My wife loves them! |
| This is a great product for the price. It works perfect! |
| For the price these are really hard to beat when compared to the Honda Line ones for around $80.00. Fit is good and they do the the job they were intended for. |
