It looks like a good product. I bought a trailer on ebay and am going to pick it up and see how good the hitch is. Fairly easy install, took me about 3 hours. A good part of the time was getting the fender on. The tabs on the fender didn't align with the holes and had to worble the tab of the left bar to the inside and pulled the saddle bag in with the long nose needle nose pliers and tightened it up. That took care of the problem. Use the long nose vise grip pliers to hold everything in place when placing the forward bolt, really helps keep the alignment. |
| Installed one on my "08", took about 2 hours. The next one I install on my friend's bike should only take about an hour. The packaged instructions were usless. The download instructions are better but after struggling with the arms I went to plan B. Do yourself a favor and remove the mufflers!! Attach the arms to the rear cross brace with 1 loose bolt and then you can lift the arms into place with minimal effort. With the arms in place attach the H bracket. I used a piece of wood cut a bit longer than the H bracket is wide to wedge the arms into alignment with the H bracket. After all the bolts were started I tightened the the 2 forward arm bolts first, then the 4 H bracket bolts, then the 4 clamp bolts on the cross brace and finally the 2 small lower side bag support bolts.I did have to slot the holes for the lower side bag support screws. Don't forget to paint where you grind and use high temp anti-sieze on the muffler bracket bolts. With the mufflers off you can change the final drive oil with ease and do some polishing. |
| Love this bag! Well made. Secures very well to the luggage rack. |
| Excelent tires, there is a significant change in handling for the better compared to the stock tires. You feel like there is a better grip on the road especially in cornering. Glad I got them. |
| Good looking little accent and I like it but... Like others, I wish Kuryakyn would get the curve right. In the Texas heat the ends will pop up on you requiring a re-install. About once a year. I'm looking into a stronger adhesive. I have the same problem with the left saddlebag chrome strip/LED's from Kuryakyn. I really like the products but how hard is it make them right. Especially for the money they get. |
| Very nice addition to the "spook" Make sure to clean surface area b-4 install. I was leery of how well the adhesive would hold, but seems to be holdng like a champ...so far. |
| Rack looks good on bike, seems to sit high for my taste, but plan to put a spoiler on under it anyway. Once you get over fear of drilling holes, in-stall was pretty simple. Make sure to drill a small hole first, and work your way up. Good value fo the money. |
| These things are great! Easy to install. perfect for a guy with shorter legs like me. They look sharp too. |
| I rated this 4 stars, not because it doesn't work, but because it may not be necessary. I bought two so I could use one in the motor oil and one in the final drive oil. When I pulled the final drive oil plug I discover that it was an OEM magnetic plug! (I have an '07 Wing.) Be sure you check your plug before buying this one for final drive oil... the OEM model is a better design that you won't want to replace with this one. For motor oil it's a great idea. |

As stated previously, no need to remove trunk, just loosen to drill the needed hole for wiring. Fairly easy install. About 90 minutes. Antenna arrived today and it was about a 30 minute install, some of which was time spent fretting over drilling holes in the trunk, but worked out fine. 2004 Goldwing. |
| I like this oil. It performs well, and if changed every 4,000 miles it should have little degradation in that time. Personally I prefer full-synthetic because it maintains lubricating properties and viscosity better than mineral oils. The advantage of this mix is the higher hot-viscosity, but it's those viscosity additives that leave oil first and you're left with 10W30 after a several thousand miles. So if you change according to the manual schedule, then I suggest full synthetic. That's what I'm going back to. |
| Have to admit, they look great and are made of actual metal, not plastic. Not hard to install either. Problem is,they don't seem to be molded to the correct contour of the fender. Because they are metal, when installed, they gently force the fender to their contour. Shortly thereafter, the fender cracks through the mounting holes, breaking the fender mounting shoulder completely out. I have been through two $261 fenders before I discovered this little flaw. Kury's attention to detail bites me again! |
