Had the dealership install them a short while back on my 07 RK. I really like them, my back is much more comfortable on longer rides. I think it makes the rider look more natural sitting in an upright position rather than being slouched over. Each to his own.

A before pic would be stock.
Here is an after pic. I had to adjust the angle of my brake/clutch levers after this pic though.

Re-routing the clutch cable may require an adjustment, it did on my install.
While the bike is at room temp pull the cable from the lever and if a nickel barely fits you're good to go.

Thanks for the pics. It's hard to tell the difference. They look the same. One pic is closer than the other. Do you like the difference. I get a kink in my neck on long rides. Would love to try something different.
