The shaking is gone! best in frame forks

Shaking is gone. My husband and I love riding the Honda Goldwing trike, but he complained about the front end wobbling. When he saw it, he thought it was worth a try. It definitely was. It took quite a long time to install and the shaking went away. Good product!

Pros
  • Heavy duty finish
Cons
  • No

A definite upgrade: Suspension

Sturdy construction and easy to install, definitely helps to feel more stable on dirt roads (I rode 4km hoping it might help, the wobble at about 35 miles tame per hour but definitely awesome buy all around!

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Something different

Every GL1800 should have one.

Fork spacer assembled in about 15 minutes. I was amazed at the difference it made. My bike has done over 85,000 miles and the front end was a bit lost in the corners, but after installing the fork brace it rode like a dream and the suspension felt stiffer in the corners. Good product!

Pros
  • Easy assembly
Cons
  • Not bad

Good brace, bad instructions

The quality, fit and finish of this brace is first class. It will take time to see if the shock absorber wears out the tire for a few more miles and improves cornering. This strut was installed on a 2013 Goldwing F6B. There aren't many installation instructions. The instructions do not include torque values or placement information. I contacted Kuryakin and the tech rep there told me the placement would be obvious, which it was, and they didn't give a torque number. The rep also suggested thatโ€ฆ

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Soft screws, small hexagon socket.

I would like to start by saying that I like the lift. The mount is well designed and the finish looks good, but it's too early to tell if it will stand the test of time. I gave it 4 stars because the screws are very soft and although they are quite large in diameter, the Allen key size is small and part of the Allen key is easy to loosen. I started removing the hex and wanted to get new bolts, I called Kuryakin and then was told they didn't have any parts to send me. I could have sent it backโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Well made easy to install looks good

Installation: Very easy and if you don't like the instructions there are some videos on youtube. I smeared copper grease on all metal surfaces, screw threads, and screw covers to ease installation, prevent damage to the chrome, and prevent corrosion on the mating surfaces. The spacer consists of 5 parts: 2 half fork clamps for each fork and the spacer itself, which is adjustable. Traxxion Dynamics product is too expensive, so I went for Kuryakyn's latest product. So I'll have to keep polishingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • update available

Easy install, great looks, works well, no plastic!

UPDATE: I took the Canyon Wing at 95-100 and thought I could do 75 even though my wife poked me in the back to slow it down. Looking back, I realize it was a stupid move, but seriously, I actually thought I was going to slow down until I checked the speedometer at her urging. Definitely worth the money for the increased stability at any speed. ********************* I was so fed up with the chrome plastic parts on my bike that I was glad to get this solid metal triple clamp with metal guardโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Top marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Updates
