| If you are going to put a light spoiler on the trunk definately gat these for the extra clearance. Ideally these would be installed right off the bat, but if added later, new hole positions are needed. The larger base covers the old holes thank goodness. The screws provided were not compatable with the luggage rack. I had to run to Home Depot to get the right ones. |

| The only problem with the risers is the Rack takes a 10-24 fastener and the risers come with 1/4-20 fasteners. You have to buy two 10/24x 1.5 for the back legs and the long fasteners with the Rack will work for the front legs. |

Installing these would have been very straight forward had they provided the correct size bolts! I had to cut and file all four bolts as they were about ¼" too long. This added to the install time and the frustration especially considering the cost. I think next time I will go back to the Show Chrome rack, cheaper, better quality and less trouble to install. |

| These worked well with my efforts to change my trunk luggage rack to a different brand. Good price. |

| They DO NOT fit without a lot of grinding, drilling and trunk modifications. Especially if you have a spoiler on your trunk. I had to grind them down to mold and conform to my trunk. And I still do not know if the holes are sealed. They are flat on the base and the trunk on the GW's is curved. |

| As others have noted, you cannot install these in holes drilled for the Khury trunk rack. Adding the feet changes the angle of the rack legs. I bought these with the rack and still screwed up the install. Thankfully, the large feet cover my mistakes. Good product--take your time with the install, and don't try to use as an add-on to an existing rack. |

| These were tough to install. I already had the Kury rack and spoiler, so the holes were already there. My previous installer stripped the allen head bolts and now I see why, so it started out difficult. What I found was that I had to not just enlarge the holes but enlarge them at the angle of the rack legs, then it got a lot easier. Also be sure to cover your trunk against scratches and put something over your open bike for dropped bolts and risers. Two more hands would have helped. Finally, when time to tighten up I used star head drill bits in my allen head bolts. They worked beautifully. No stripping. |

I did not install my luggage rack for over a year because the clearance between the luggage rack and spoiler was so close you could not fit your hand under the rack to wash the top of the trunk. Glad I waited now, sounds like when you space the mounting up this far it changes the mounting holes, go figure. Taping the trunk lid to avoid scratching is a must. Centering the luggage rack is not easy with nothing to hold spacers and grommets from moving around. The tape did provide the traction needed to get the job done with a few explicative words that seemed to help with the process. I decided to use a small drop of Loctite because of the vibration the fasteners will encounter. Over two years now after install, very happy with the end result. |

| I had puchased these and was told that I would be able to remove rack and install. Not the case when I installed the rack would not line up with the risers. So did not use them. Maybe would work fine if installed when purchased the rack and install at the same time. Will try again this winter, was told had to ream out the holes from orginal rack. Little worried about doing this. |

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. A must have and you should add these during the original install so you don't have to reem out previous mounting holes. |
