    Default Support SE5 models with ISO Grips

    Come up with a grip that goes over the existing grip similar to the GW clamshell grips however it works with the SE5 model. Cutting the end of the existing grip wasn't a major chore however grinding at the SE5 paddle was a little tedious and I would suspect that others would like to have different grips without giving up the heat, as well as without the grinding of the paddle, however I am making a LARGE ASSUMPTION on this.

    I purchased the kuryakan widow driver foot peg for my RSS and I an constantly having to tighten the screw even after using loctite. I feel like they may fall off while I am riding. Am i missing something in the installation.

    Well, I went to the Kuryakin tent in Rapid City, during the Sturgis 2013, and they were not aware of any product for the Spyder, actually they did not give me any attention when they heard I was looking for something for the Spyder. Because of that I am not considering Kuryakin among my accessories providers, not even for my Harley. That's what poor customer attention does !

    Absolutely the best handlebar grips I have ever used.

    Was sad to see that you folks pulled out of Americade this year. Hope you all return, because it wasn't the same vendor area without you. I know the prices to vendors are crazy high, maybe think about setting up in Warrensburg, NY where the prices are more realistic.

    I have multiple Kuryakyn products on my Spyder and enjoy them all. I ride a 2008 GS and the grips work fine for me. More widow products for the Spyder please.

    Sounds like their Sturgis rep may have been misinformed... or didn't understand the question.

    They even have a web page devoted to their Spyder products: http://www.kuryakyn.com/metric/can-am

    While all of the products are not specific to the Spyder, there are some.

    I have a 2012 Spyder RT Limited SE5 and am looking to replace the factory ones. They are to narrow for my hands and hate the rubber feel. I live in AZ were it gets to 110 - 120 and would also like a cooler grip. Do you have any? RJ

    This was the same treatment I received when I was there. They were rude when it came to my Spyder needs. Their loss

    Being new to the motorcycle thing, I've never heard of these guys....maybe that was the OP's purpose? lol


    I see these on the link above http://www.kuryakyn.com/Products/379...Rear-Axle-Caps wonder how well they stay on if just "stuck" on?

    I have purchased a quite a few items directly from Kuryakyn and from dealers for my Goldwings and Spyder. The treatment from them has always been great and the service was great also. Fit has always been good. Finish had some issues a few years ago but they always stood behind their products.

    Always good to get a first hand review.

    Thanks.

    I think my concern is that they stick on and the bikes get hot, that makes sticky not stick in most cases. lol

    I check it occasionally to make sure it's good. Had it on for a month and so far so good. I am not sure how long it will hold, just hope that I can catch it before it falls off.

    I agree I have the widow pegs too on my 2012 rss se5 and they r always Loose no matter how much i tightened it i used blue loctite like i do on most everything (once in awhile i may use red). I had the flame grips too and one rain shower they started to pit. Not a quality product.

    I have the widow pegs also and use internal lock washers and do not have a problem with movement. I use the internal rather than external because the internal lock washers are less likely to be seen.
