Default kuryakyn ruins christmas

maybe that's a little dramatic haha. my old lady bought me a bunch of rad parts for my bike, including a kury adjustable mustache bar. i went out to the garage today and the threads in one of the brackets are so jacked up i can't get the bolt in. of course, customer service was closed by the time i realized this, so i'll have to wait until tomorrow to see what they say.

They generally ruin a lot more. I only trust their ISO grips. The rest pretty much sucks, just my opinion.

i tried the iso grips on my old sportster and they rattled worse than the 17 yr old stock grips so i took them back.

i like the idea of the mustache bar as opposed to a full engine guard for hwy pegs.
anyone have any suggestions for a similar product?

Yes the OEM HD moustache bar. Can't fit lowers with it if you want to go that way. At least 99% of OEM stuff fits and has a reasonable amount of R&D put into it. Not just cheap knock offs.

Done with your foot stomping tantrum?

See if you can run a tap through it.
