    Default PASSENGER ARM REST HELP

    I am going to buy a set of passenger arm rests for my RT "Scoot3r". I am tending toward either the RIVCO or Diamond R sets. Anyone with experience with either manufactor? Any other recommendations are also welcomed and appreciated. Thanks for any info

    I can't comment on the RIVCO's but we are extremely happy with the Diamond R armrests! Super easy install, they function well and look great.

    If you are at any Spyder events, see if some riders have both and check them out! I am sure they both are high quality !

    My vote goes to Diamond R. I have several Diamond R products and they're all great! Allen and Patti are top notch too!!

    Thanks to all of you -Sounds like Diamond R is the best recommendation. I like the idea of vertical adjustment, and they look good. Jim

    Default Looks like..!!

    from this impromptu survey the Diamond R's are the way to go. Have to agree with "netminder" on trying to find those that have them and see for yourself. If this is not possible go with the flow..folks here are the best at this...

    I have had the pleasure of dealing with Allen at Diamond R.
    All his products are top quality and his customer service is second to none!

    I have the diamond R arm rests and am happy with two installation caveats: 1) After you install them give the nuts on top of the arm rest an additional 1/2 rotation tighten. Otherwise the arm rests seem a little too loose, and 2) If you park in the sun and the passenger does not wear long sleeves the arm rests can get hot. I invested in getting some cloth covers made to handle this. Just cloth on the top and sides and elastic underneath. A tailor made them for me at a cost of $20.
