Acceptable chrome quality, nice usable design and shape, however there was an inexcusable quality problem with mine. As you would expect, the foot on each leg is cut at an angle to match the contour of the GL1800 trunk lid. One of these legs was welded on to the main rack with the angled foot incorrectly oriented by at least 90 degrees. That leg therefore rested on the pointed side of the angled foot and not flush with the lid. Additionally, if you look at the product pictures you will notice that it appears the legs are probably touching the spoiler. If don't want these 2 parts touching, moving the rack forward just a little will result the front part of the rack (sharp corners) to poke into the passenger backrest. This might or might not prove to be a problem over time. Returned and will not try another one. |
| I purchased this stand and had it installed while attending Wing Ding 30 in Greenville, SC today (3 July 2008). Given the other comments regarding installation posted here on WingStuff.com I'm glad I did have it installed. The actual installation didn't look complicated, but the use of a motorcycle jack instead of the side stand (as recommended in the installation instructions) made it easier. Like others have said, once you get the hang of it (which happens after a couple of uses) it really is a pleasure to use. I especially like the "ride off" capability. I highly recommend this product. |
| I had a set of Hand Wings installed by the nice folks of Baker Built Air Wings, Inc. while attending Wing Ding 30 in Greenville, SC today (3 July 2008). Although done by the Baker crew, installation took less than 5 minutes (but it did look easy) and they look great. They also work great too! It was 95 degrees on the way home and the wings really helped by directing air onto my hands. This is an excellent product. |

| Put one on 18 months ago. As others have said I do not really notice any difference but hope I never have to go through all the time and effort again. Fortunately I have a maintenance manual that told me how to get to it. It is time consuming. |
| Just got them and the install was a little difficult. I had read osnider comments about the dog leash to snap them together. I used a short piece of rope that really did the trick in getting them to snap together. (Thanks for the hint.) Had only ridden around the block but do like the bigger feel to the grip. Throttle seems to stick a bit when not open very far. May have to loosen the right grip a bit. Do look great compared to the stock grip appearance. |
| Just received it and an easy install on the Kuryakyn trailer hitch. Looks like it should work well to carry a cooler or small package. Quality looks good and I expect it to stand up to use well. I am happy with purchase. |
| Very good antenna and make your bike looks great. Easy install, but it really makes me feel a little nerving when drill those holes. |

A little pricy but make me feel safe when I do those removals on my bike. Bought 4 and come with "huge" bags to hold only one pin each, it really make shipping company happy. lol |
| I checked every hitch on the market before finally deciding on this one. Glad I did! Good instructions and very well made. It took me 1 3/4 hrs to install with bike on center-stand in back yard.Highly recommend |

Nice Product Looks Nice, Helps in Wet Contiditions - Deductions for Workmanship. Hard to Believe Kuryakyn Would Send This Out With Instructions about a Studs and Holes Tapped #8-32. No Way. Chased with a #8-32 tap the locking studs still will not thread into the hole. So if you don't mind it being a little loose. . . . . . |
| No complaint so far. I've had mine for almost 2 years |
