My concern is for the passenger. Don't these things just redirect the heat right down to her feet?
Actually it reduces the heat on the passenger. My gal said it was much cooler and even wanted to have some of the heat back when riding on a cool morning in the mountains.

OK, next question. If you have an adjustable back rest do they fit with the adjustment lever?

Been on my RK for the last 13000 miles and I love them. Also if I remember correctly they are made by Vets.

Ordered mine last week - received email from rj that they're expected to ship on 6/18 (due to move). Both me and my girlfriend (with the burning right ankle) are looking forward to the relief.

You can NOT go wrong in buying this product. I got mine on Tuesday this week, and they do make a difference. Easy to install, and the company was the best to deal with. You get what you pay for and quality american made products are not cheap!

This is a quality product!

Just curious. Where does the heat go? By installing these you don't end up cooking part of the bike, do you? Pics look like it traps the heat, but maybe I'm missing something.
