I had a set of Show Chrome passenger armrests on my 2006 Goldwing ... liked them very much. Decided to buy these for my 2010 Goldwing ... because they are "Kuryakyn" and because I have a lot of Kuryakyn stuff on my Wing. When they got here, the wife looked at them and said "Nope" looks like a TV tray! That alone was enough for me to send them back but, another reason was the fact I didn't care for the mounting method ... drilling holes in the rear pockes compartments wasn't happening. I really don't see how these armrests can be very strong at all they way they mount ... even with all the hardware that has to be installed. I went back to the Show Chrome ... very easy to install, they install to the passenger grab handles and are very strong. Sent the Kuryakyn armrests back. |

I have had these arm rest for almost 3 yrs and they do give comfort to my co-rider. How ever You have to be very careful not to put to much weight on them or you might break the sides of you trunk. My rider is always careful so no problem so far in 35000 miles. The other problem is you can open the trunk with out swinging them out of the way ???? you would think somebody would have though of it. I get annoyed each time I have to reach around and swing them out of the way to open the trunk. Other wise they do a good job. This is the reason I give it 3 stars. |

This was the first thing I had put on my bike over 2 years ago, and not had the first problem. My wife loves them. She has actually fallen a sleep on long rides and they keep her secure on the bike.(This is not a recommended way of keeping you passenger safe though LOL) I have read some the the reviews saying they had problems with the crome bubbling up. I can honestly say that mine look like the day they were installed in April of 09. |

Product instruction could be better, Instructions tell you to have friend hold them for placement. I removed arm stem from base and fit and tightened to antenna for marking drill holes. Made it a lot simpler. still took around 1.5 hrs. Would like to see these in a composite for the weight reduction drag on the pockets. |

works pretty good until about 6 months the chrome started to peel, don't like the swing out to open the trunk, waiting for something better. other than that my passenger loves them |

Installation was somewhat tedius but not terrible. Product works well and has improved my passengers comfort. The chrome finish is as expected, not so great. Pitting already surfacing 3 months later... |

First let me say I have 60,000+ miles on these and the concept is great, chrome plating not so good, even being grarge kept with proper cleaning and drying pitting began after a year of use. Cup holder does not properly fit anything I have found. As other reviewers have said, rembering to swing out to open trunk. Passengers feel secure and comfortable with them. |

This is a must have if you have a passenger with you. You must swing them open to open the trunk, but you will get used to that. |

Wife loves them (she has actually fallen asleep on long trips - scary...). The only pain is having to remember to swing them out when opening the trunk lid. |

Excellent arm rests and easily installed. But be careful, if you don't use the included cozy your bottles tend to bounce out. Highly recommended. |

This was a great addition. My daughter loves them and it gives me piece of mind if she gets sleepy. I strung a bungie cord across and around the back rest. She never actually feel asleep, but I felt better about the situation. The installation required some precise placement and drilling for the left side, but when I get around to adding a CB it will be a breeze, the holes will already be there |

Installed these on the 08 wing and they are a little tricky to put on, but very do-able. My wife (and Grand kids) really like the cup holder that comes with these. you will not be sorry you bought these armrests. Bill |
