Do the side covers still fit properly after installing the mid frame covers?? I read about someone saying they don't. How does yours fit?
I bought them ,but not sure I want to put them on if the side covers don't snap into place completely.
They didn't fit my o8 ultra classic! I started with the Primary side and it did not line up at all. I ended up twisting it like a pretzelin discuss sense the darn thing got scratched in the process. I hope others had better luck thanI did!Still have the other side brand new in the box if anybody wants it! As to the side covers fitting? Nope! I felt thatI would end up losing theside coverdown the road. Not worth it to me.
I had them on my 07...on MY bike they never seemed like everything lined up right and
didn't like the way the stuck out..I went with custom made ones from starzleather.com
...made out of thick leather and look alot better, had pow/mia put on mine
Biggest POS I ever bought and KUYYAKIN Customer Service blows!!! From the first time I put them on they never fit correctly, the side covers that held them in kept popping out I took em off for the winter, when I tried to install em for the summer I stripped the brass thresaded inserts, e mailed KURYAKIN and they answered said if I needed hardware to replace the stripped insert Id have to sent them $19 plus shipping, Instead of just sending me a replacement insert, therefore I lost all faith in Kuryakin and refuse to buy anymore of their stuff! Tried to give em to my friend, he didnt want them so I wound up throwing em in the trash!!
I've had mine forthree years on my '04 EG; they fit fine and the side covers fit well.
Personally, I bought them shortly after I bought the bike as a newby and wouldn't buy them again since they basically "disappear"--not much bling for the buck IMO.
Yeah, i think I was the one you read about that said the side covers dont fit anymore. their cheap stamped pot-metal, fit like crap, make your side covers fit like crap and are WAY overpriced, but other than that their great!
Check with getting RJs Originals. They are a breeze to install, look and function great, and RJ really does care about customer care. Stay away from the Kury/HD junk. Lots of dissatisfied customers on these deflectors.
If you are talking about the MidFrame Heat Shields, for 08 with the different 6 Gal Tank the Mid frame Heat Shieldsare different than previous years, you have to make sure you get the right ones, if they are even available yet.
I am not sure of the Chrome covers, and they may have changed also.
I get frustrated trying to get parts that are not yet available for the 08's.
