This is the third Rivco hitch I have owned. Installed this one on a 2023 GW Tour DCT. I had no problem installing without removing the mufflers. My kit came with three 45 mm length bolts so I had to cut one of them down to 40mm to clear the swing arm. Used angle grinder to cut off the nuts on the crash bars and smoothed out with bench grinder. Well made and easy install with basic mechanic skills. Couple videos are available that will help you prepare for the install. Highly recommend this hitch and I feel there is no substitute. |
Good quality product Easy to install I would recommend this product |
The cover is what I was looking for. Fits the bike very well, and even though my bike is in a garage, this cover will help to keep it clean over its winter storage here in Michigan. |
I have a 2008 gl1800 trike I add the belly pan because there is a can underneath the bike that hass been bent and I hear all the time story of water reservoir getting damaged. I also heard the solid pans cause heat problems. This pan is vented and no I would not say it will stop damage from wrecking or hitting a solid fix curbside but it will stop flying objects. It was easy to install and on sell at a great price. |
Great addition and an easy install to the tailblazer line. It is an attention grabber if you follow a motorcycle that has one installed. My wife feels more at ease when riding because of the additional upper brake light flashing. I've had positive comments from drivers that pull up beside me. You cannot go wrong with adding this safety feature. |
Every thing you need except the oil in one kit. Very convenient at a good price. |
Quality filter with a pre lubed O ring and very easy to remove with a 17mm socket. It helps make oil changes a breeze. |
I was out and about riding, collecting some stops for The Motorcycle Grand Tour of Texas, when I blew out my fork seals. I decided to go OEM with this kit, since it comes with other parts that should also be replaced. This was my first time rebuilding forks, so it took some time to get it done, but all the parts fit like clockwork, and appear to be of good quality. It turns out that it was a good thing that the seal blew, since after draining the old oil out; I realized how old the old fluid was. It needed to be replaced regardless of the seals. If you are a DIY’R; get this kit and get it done. |
I've got a slow leak in my read tire so I purchased this to replace the slime one I had previously that stopped working. After three uses the adapter that screws onto the valve stem stopped screwing on all the way. It no longer screws on enough to fill the tire, just enough to let more air out. If I could give it less than 1 star I would. |
Very wide. A tip for people putting it on. If you set it all the way back and the set screw doesn’t tighten, cheat it forward about an 1/8th of an inch and the screw should grab. Didn’t quite fit properly on mine but worked once I cheated it forward, it worked. Stays tight and works well! |
Instructions were perfect with great illustration. Wish other companies would take note. Very simple install. One screw and attaching the cup, very easy. Feel like it’s a bit overpriced for the material. Feels like 35 bucks but we shall see how long it lasts. Came with everything needed and holds all of my large cups so overall it’s a thumbs up! |
I’m really scratching my head on these other reviews. Maybe Show Chrome used to have a different design. This is NOT a quick detach backrest. The instructions and design were so far off what I ordered that I was convinced I had been shipped the wrong item but I wasn’t. Instructions show a flat bar to detach from the seat. That’s not the case. The bar for the backrest is curved and does NOT fit through the gap in the seat so it is impossible to install by the directions. Had to fit a modified Allen key (should be included) into the slot to tighten it. It is a permanent fixed backrest. In order to remove it, you’d have to remove the seat (which on the 2024 Goldwing tour is not “quick”) and manage to squeeze the modified Allen key into a slot and painfully remove it. The fasteners were poor quality, cheap flimsy T nuts. I am strongly considering returning this item as it doesn’t match the 21 plus seat like it says, nor is it quick detach like the description. The instructions are awful and wrong, with missing steps. Also for the money I expected higher quality. I’ve gotten better fitment and quality off of Amazon or EBay. Once I finally got it installed properly and tested it out, it wasn’t great. Wouldn’t stay in place and isn’t adjustable enough. Needs more height. Cushion is soft and well padded but still lacked support. Would give zero stars if I could. |
