This peg looks and works great on my 2012 1800 trike. My only disappointment is that it only comes in chrome and not in black. I took the rubber inserts out, painted it black then reinserted the rubber. Now it's black and looks great. |

Universal fit - Yeah, that means universlly doesn't fit. Here's my fix and now this is a GREAT accessory. My peg cover is definitely metal with rubber inserts. I have an Add-on Heel/Toe shifter on my GL1800, but the front shift peg didn't give enough room for my size 9 shoe and I used the original shift peg instead. But only 1/2 of the peg was usable, bought this to extend the peg. Tried wrapping the stock peg with electrical tape, but the peg cover still wobbled terribly. I cut a piece of copper pipe (plumbing project leftover) that fit perfectly inside of the new peg cover and also over the peg rubber of the stock peg (approx. 1" OD?). Drill 2 holes in the pipe for the set screws to pass thru. A bit of WD40 to help slide the pipe into the peg cover, lining up the holes for the set screws. WD40 on the stock shift peg to slide it on and tighten down the longer set screws provided. The set screws "bite" into the stock shift rubber to hold it and the copper pipe is a perfect spacer so that there is barely any wobble - any wobble is probably due to the give of the rubber. It feels pretty solid now and I have a nice looking shift peg cover that is easier to use. This cover will work much better on the stock shifter peg if you use a spacer like the copper pipe. Cheers! |

I was initially disappointed with this item. Its quality is not as good as their brake pedal cover. The brake cover was made of steel. This is made of plastic. Has a MUCH cheaper feel to it. Also, as is, it has a very poor install onto the GL1800. Show Chrome should put four mounting screws on it, not just two. With just two screws on the inner end of the cover, it wiggles excessively on the outer end. This wiggle is made worse by the cover being both longer and fatter than the OEM shifter. I initially installed this cover directly on the shift lever as described by the manufacturer. It had way to much wiggle on the outer edge of it. The way I solved this problem was I used electrical tape to attach a 3/8" piece of wooden dowel (the same diameter as the shifter) onto the end of the shifter. (This took up the slack between the end of the shifter and the cover. Now when the cover is slid onto the shifter it has some foundation when it meets the inner edge of the rubber on the shifter.) Then I wrapped electrical tape around the dowel and shifter until it was close to the inner diameter of the cover. Then I slid the cover on and tightened the screws. Using this method, the longer screws stuck out about 1/8 of an inch, so I used the shorter screws and they go in about 1/8". Now the shifter cover feel solid on the shifter. I like the way it dresses it up and matches the brake pedal cover. |

Looks nice. However they should not have put rubber on the bottom. It is wearing a hole in the toe of my boot. |

Again no brainer. Excellent product and no downside to quality of product and appearance. Classy look and easier to shift with this on as well. Thanks |

This shifter cover extends the shifter peg just a little to make shifting a little easier. It also dresses up a part of the bike that is very bland. |

Although, it looks really good, it does not fit well when using boots, very little space and causes delays in shifting. The unit also fails to stay in the same position, the set screws do not work. |

Some creativity to get a good fit. Then found it to be not to friendly while down shifting, the fit is too close and tight to the engine and my feet just don't work well in tight spaces. Sorry it's now on the shelf, gathering dust. |
