| I like it. The velcro one slips on the stock grips, this one stays right where I put it. Great for old hands like mine. |
| They really make the back of the bike look nice. A piece of cake to install, even for 10 thumbs like me. |
| They look great and are easier than easy to install, but way too expensive for 2 pieces of plastic. Add the BB52619 passenger board lights to give them a nice accent. |

Had "boards" on my 81 and loved them. Was told I might not like them on the 01 due to the change in the foot position, and to find someone with boards on their bike and try the position before buying. I would tell you (yes you) to do the same thing. I can see where folks might have trouble getting their feet on the ground. Try em before you buy. |
| There are other spoilers on the market, but this little guy fits right and looks right. You spend more, but you get the best. |

Small, powerful, easy on the wallet. Nuf said. |
| Nice quality. I feel better traveling when I have the basics to keep me on the road. |

I just had these removed after 4 months and 6,000 miles (new '07 GL1800 purchased in July). I had a horrible wobble at 37-44mph and vibration at highway speeds. The rear was replaced due to flattening and the front was replaced due to cupping. I check my tire pressure once a month or if I feel they are off. Today is day 1 of the Metzlers. The dealer recommended 42 psi filled with nitrogen front and rear. I'm going to give it a try. After a few thousand miles I'll post my feedback on the Metzler tire review area. I paid a lot more at Rick Case Honda than here for tires. My Metzler rear was $220.95 and the front was $172.95. If I wasn't in a bind I would have saved over $70.00. |
| I WAS GOING TO INSTALL IT MYSELF. BUT I CALLED KURYAKYN AND ASKED ABOUT INSTALLATION AND THE TECH SAID THAT THERE WAS NO WAY THAT HE WOULD DRILL HOLES IN HIS $18,000.00 BIKE. GOOD ADVICE. I PAID MORE FOR IT, BUT DONT HAVE EXTRA HOLES IN MY TRUNK. BUT IT SURE LOOKS NICE. |
| INSTALLED IN LESS THAN 5 MIN. EASY TO PUT ON. JUST MAKE SURE THE PAINT IS CLEAN SO THEY STICK SECURE. DRESSES UP THE MIRRORS REALY NICE |
| Excellent price for an excellent product. Worth the wait to get. |
| i purchased the vertical hitch for my 'o6 gl1800 mostly because of the clever idea of how it was mounted. was impressed with the welds and machining of all the parts, except the forward attach points. after reading of other folks having problems with the bags being pushed out of alignment, causing the rear fender panel not to fit properly anymore, i looked for a better way to secure it. first i made a measuring tool to measure the distance between the inside of the forward mounting points pm the frame and then built a jig to hold the mount in place for the new measurement. using a hydraulic press i bent the left mount arm a little more at the bend in it and cut the right arm just behind the pumpkin, at the heatsheild of the right muffler. i then took 1/4 in flat stock to make a splice and welded the two pieces back togeather with the forward portion rotated 180 degrees and offset about 3/4 in to the right. this mod allowed both arms to be mounted inside the frame with about 3/8 clearance between the swingarm and bolt head and clear the pumpkin. i know this sounds like a lot of work but the results was absolutely worth every min. i just finished making the cooler tray mount to go with it and it doesn't even wiggle under 220 lbs. test weight. |
