Default What's the most lame bike product you've ever seen?

Wow, even though it don't get much worse than the faux tank shifts & faux kick starters, this product is certainly worthy as a runner-up! The mounting brackets look like an afterthought at best.

It's amazing how one simple part can screw up an otherwise perfectly good bike. Kuryakyn .... what were you thinking

Where to start...gps/cell holders, cup holders, them stupid mics so you can talk to each other. led pods to light up your bike, with glowing cam, air cleaner covers..probably offended enough people, nothin personal.

LMFAO yea;that's pretty bad!!

But I think the all time lame award has to go to.....

THE HARLEY BUBBLE!! Has anyone really bought this POS? I mean--who would leave a compressor running all winter in proximity to their sled? When I saw that, I really thought it was a joke.

Second runner up? The $40 Harley wash bucket--talk about no Vaseline!

Third place? Pretty much anything from Kury.

Not talking bolt covers, but all of those lame chromed covers in the HD catalog...like the ones that cover the gap between the transmission and the cam cover; or the ones that cover the bases of the pushrods; fake swing arm cover; fake sprocket covers. If you want it chrome, buy the chrome part. Tons of other stuff too, but they were mentioned above.

I'm pretty sure I have things on my bike that some would call lame, but everything seems to sell, so I guess you have to respect all of the individual tatses out there.

Harley bubble.....hah... a buddy has one, its still in the box 4 years later....but he has every type of shirt, pant, underwear, ties, and any other stupid thing that says harley on it.

I told him many times that I wish I had stock in harley before he bought his bikes, oh, that by the way neither of his bikes have over 10k on them, one is an 04, and the other is a 09. Now he has a vette to play with so even less miles on the bikes........
