Anybody that has the showchrome arm rests that swivel out...can they be locked so they dont swivel? My wife feels better if they are locked in position. Thanks in advance

I think my passenger would also like a bit more “side by side” support. In her case I think the actual armrest is secondary to the feeling of security. The factory arm rest look as if they are pretty solid but if the Showchrome armrest can somewhat lock into position then they would be a consideration.

I looked at them, but did not like the possibility that could work loose and flop around. I got the BRP armrests and my co-rider likes them a lot. Expensive, but rock solid.

I put ridged plastic/silicone washers (Ace Hardware) on the hinges and tighten them down real tight. It made the arm rest ridged to move back and forth. Just enough resistance to make the better half fell more secure.:clap:
