Hmmmmm.... Everything I've bought from them has worked fine. Only thing I ever had to return was the chrome oil filler cover plate (
Amazon Amazon
), which wouldn't line up with a non-Harley (Custom Chrome, Drag Specialties, etc.) chrome transmission top cover. I really love their ISO grips and highway pegs. Never had a problem with the quality of chrome plating either.

Bought a set of adjustable highway pegs from them once.
They never would stay tight.

My most recent experience with them is that rear turn signal to bake light module.
If you remember the thread on that you know what a PIA that was.

I will never buy any of their parts again.

+1 on the ISO grips. I have had 3 sets of their adjustable highway pegs on 3 different bikes with no problems.

There are 2 kinds of those...the originals that weren't that great...and the chinese copys that you will never get to not leak...think you have the latter.


I had a set of those...I would put them on for bike shows...and take them back off to ride the bike.

I have not had a good experience with anything Kuryakyn either. ISO grips-chrome sucks, Eclipse mirrors-chrome sucks, Adjustable passenger pegs- chrome sucks, and will not stay tight.

It may be because I am in Florida, but all of my Harley chrome is great.

I just bought a set of J&P flush pop up caps http://www.jpcycles.com/product/7200805 that I have not had a chance to install yet. I saw the Krator brand ones on Amazon and debated but didn't find good reviews on them.
