Installed on 2012 ABS GL1800. I'm adding this info for those that have a 2012 and were wondering what will fit. I will review 27 items that I installed on my 2012. This is my third gl1800 to have these on. The wife loves them and does not feel comfortable without them. |

I had these installed by Wingstuff & purchased the Kury ones at their recommendation. They are very good quality & I'm confident my honey will love them when I'm comfortable enough with my new bike to put her on it. I like the cup holder, as it folds up and slides underneath the right armrest. You do have to pull them out to open the trunk, but I knew this going in and elected not to purchase the other ones that fold up instead of out. |

If you ever have a passenger ride with you, they will love you for these. Only problem is you have to move them to open the trunk. Other than that, cant live without them.... |

Wow! My wife loves these. They definitely are worth the time to install. And installation was straightforward even though it takes a while to get them in place. I didn’t experience the problems that others have referenced with brackets not fitting. Mine almost fell right into place. It is a little bit of a challenge doing this alone as you find yourself reaching and drilling some odd/blind places. I had a little bit of a challenge setting the tension on the rotating portion of the armrest to balance ease of opening with a secure feeling for my favorite passenger, but with a few adjustments they are working well. |

Agree w/ RF Tech, just tried to install right side. The brackets will not sit flush against BOTH the back & side walls (????) and if you opt for forcing a flush fit to the side wall, it's cantilevered for the back. In addition, had to stop since the 3x4 hex bolt w/ those confounded Nylex acorn nuts sheared in two- Home Depot trip ;-). I like the style, but give 3 stars for the craftsmanship of install hdw. |

The wife loves these. She uses caribeaners to hook her purse to them, so she has it handy with the camera and her Ereader. So far not chrome problems. |

Bought these with the Backrest Combo deal. Giving this three stars as the brackets in the passenger pockets aren't well made to fit as intended ... they don't fit flush to the back AND to the sides as I'm sure Kuryakyn intended them to. Believe me, I spent over an hour positioning and repositioning the brackets, trying to get them to sit in the pockets so that they fit snuggly against the sides and backs of the pockets. They just weren't manufactured (or designed) properly. You end up putting strain on the brackets, or worse, your trunk and pocket plastic. I ended up using multiple washers to take up the empty spaces where the brackets should have ended up being flush to the inside sides and backs of the passenger pockets. My left armrest also swings inward more than the right side and looks weird. Not sure if this is normal or not. Time will tell if I end up with issues in earlier posts about chrome flaking off. |

If you have a passengers these are a must. My wife with me and she couldn't/wouldn't ride with out them. They offer comfort while riding and a great place to hold her drink. My upgrade to these would be that like the rider holder they need to come with a cup. |

Oh, and by the way ... the Show Chrome armrests don't have to swing out to open the trunk like with these. |
