I would totally agree with that one!!
Wow really? I've never had a problem with anything made by Kuryakyn. The isogrips on my intruder 1500 must be 12 years old...the only manufacturer I had issues with was Highway Hawk if theyre still around. A few of their parts literally fell apart going down the road on me.

Revolution Precision EMS.

bought it about 2 weeks before they discontinued it. Never installed it....they were very nice and said they would support it the best they could....but I decided against it.

$600 wasted.

Anyone wanna buy some wideband O2 sensors?

I've been the "proud owner" of three pieces of Kuryakyn items. One set of mirrors, one set of passenger pegs, and one set of mini-floorboards.
  • The mirrors were thin chromed tin bodies that flexed more than my liking, and had flat glass that made rear viewing a challenge.
  • The passenger pegs chrome flakes off in spots within one season. I bought these at the same time as the mirrors.
  • The miniboards were mounted with Kuryakyn mounts to my crash bar. These were a "gift" from a friend who never mounted them before they traded their bike. It was the supports that not only flaked, I couldn't seem to use enough loctite to keep it tight.
Never again. Fool me three times, and I'm out.

dang they must have gone downhill recently. My isogrips are still in great shape, even the rubber inserts surprisingly. I also had their dually pegs on my 1400 Intruder as well as dually pegs with longhorn attachments for the engine guards & their standard pegs on the rear of the 1500 that have held up just fine. Only have added their Bahn style A/C to my ultra classic & matching timer & derby covers recently. No complaints yet.

I regretted trading my Dyna for a Street Glide...HUUUUGE mistake...

Then I traded the Street Glide for a Road Glide and TOTALLY redeemed myself!
