Rivco Armrest.. Online warranty gives you 2 years
Install was very easy,,I did the warranty online which gives you two years instead of 1 year through mail in..I have read the bad reviews and will update if there is a problem,,But for now they are very stylish and she loves them,,I also like the flip up rather then the others that slide out to the side,,Plus the different ways to adjust,although we didn't need to.My gl1800 is always garaged so again I will update in the future if they fail..But right now we are happy with them. |

2 Year Update - Downgraded Review
Okay, I would like to update everyone on this product. I question whether they really are triple plated chrome. Mine are peeling, cracking and pitted. My 2012 Wing has always been kept in the garage and I only have 16K total miles on it. I put these on a little over two years ago and now I am looking to replace them because they look aweful. I like the style but the quality is poor. I would not recommend purchasing these. 2 stars for the design and style only. Not worth the money!!!! |

Update from Review 1/3/13
Hello all, a quick update, we have had these armrests on the bike for two years and like the other reviewers our set of armrests have the chrome separating . Very frustrating for an accessory we both love for various reasons, I am disappointed that RIVCO would charge such a high price for these yet go cheap on materials. RIVCO please pay attention...I will not purchase any of your products in the future period! You are now on my extinct list and as Mr. Wonderful would say "You're Dead to me"! |

Momma likes them
Is there really much more to add to this? Momma has been very pleased with these. We both enjoy not having to worry about opening up the trunk. Great add to the Trike. |

Triple chrome armrest headache
I have had these mounted on my wing for almost three years. They work well for my wife and they look good. I have not seen any rust yet but the mounting of them was so hard I almost tossed them out. A step back a deep breath and a Pepsi and two hours later they were mounted and like some others I have to remind my wife that there for arms only |

Poor Finish
Chrome plate started flaking off after one year. Easy to install, wife say they work well. These are getting powder coated and kept for the long term. |

Great product, so far.
I recently installed these arm rests and are very satisfied with them. I have not had them on long enough for the rust issues others have mentioned to be a factor. Perhaps in time it will be. But for now, my wife really loves them, and the installation was pretty straight forward. The only issue there was that it didn't seem like the bend the mounting brackets came with matched the bend on my bike between the trunk and the speaker housings. So I added a bit to the bend and they matched up perfectly. A minor amount of custom fitting. Otherwise, they mounted easily enough - measure twice, drill once. I found it helpful to have someone hold them in place as I measured where the holes were to go. Note: these are for arms only, not for body weight. I can see where if too much weight was applied to them that they would likely fail or deform. I had to instruct my wife to not use these to steady herself when mounting or dismounting. Her initial instinct was to do that. We do like the fact that these remain laterally secure v. the ones that rotate outward. Egress is the only complaint others have mentioned should the need arise to get off the bike quickly. The ones that rotate laterally do avoid that potential issue. If that's a concern for you, you may wish to give it some thought. For us, I can only say that if she needs to depart the bike quickly, I trust she'll make it happen as necessary. |

Rusts quickly
Had these about 18 months and they are pitting and rusting even though they are polished and cleaned regularly. They are great looking rests though and work well, I think I will get them re-chromed over the winter months. |
