I have the gold one on a gold bike and it looks fantastic. I took a little time to make sure it was aligned properly as I've seen so many of these off center or twisted I though there might be something wrong with them. Nothing wrong with them, they just need some care when fitting to get the alignment right. |
Usual fantastic Show Chrome quality and a breeze to fit. Look fantastic. |
Adhesive tape is useless. The instructions say to rub one side to activate it but which side? I chose the easy side first but despite having cleaned the OEM grips it only just stuck. The tape was then so stuck to the other backing piece I have to remove it completely to get that off. Needs much more thought. Once the tape was worked out the right (throttle) grip went on real easy but the left one was a pain. I got the cam in the right position, but every time I did the end bolt up the two halves sprang apart again. Had to remove them to work out what was wrong. One half was trying to squeeze up on the other (at the cam end) the result being it was trying to bend the grips. Fixed it by sawing a washer in half and sticking that in the gap. A right pain to install properly. Haven't ridden with them yet but they're huge. Kuryakyn, listen up please. I have more problems with your products than anyone else. |
The right boss for the heated grip covers. Goes on easy. All parts supplied. Does what it says. |
What a difference this windshield makes, yes, it does cost more, but in my opinion it is worth it. No more plastic polish for the windshield and it is much clearer than other types. As for deflecton of bugs, I hit a big old bug the other day, that would of broke my old windshield, but it didn't even scrathch this beauty. This windshield is worth the extra money!!! |
I wish all installs were this easy! Great for the cell phone/mp3 player on long rides. Could have been positioned a tad lower in the pocket than what the directions call for, but overall a great plug-n-play product! |
Even with the poor pictures, it was easy enough to figure out. Not rocket science. '06 is a tight fit, but it does fit. Best to have a helping hand. I had to tap the holes, they were full of paint, no problem. Seems to be solid enough, time will tell. You do need to lay on the ground to install and remove reciever but that's what you get for having a HIDDEN hitch, deal with it. Over all, I am happy. |
Easy to install,your turn brake are eye level with most cars, this is a must safety item, I get complements from all who see it |
Really does dress up the look of the rear fender. Mine fit quite well but I did clamp it overnight. |
easy to install very strong works well with top bag |
I get a lot of compliments on the lighting and chrome. Mostly adding lights made me more visible. Great look at night. |
I like the idea and concept of these covers very much. They did not arrive perfectly smooth, and flawless like you would expect chrome to be. They look nice enough though, so 4 STARS on this one. |
