Anybody had any experience with the things? I was thinking about a pair for my 08 FLHR. Any negatives? Dull the paint etc? Who makes the best ones?



08 FLHR
Blood Brothers MC

 

DO NOT DO IT!! I had the wife's boots tap the right lid every now and then, so I thought I would try a set out. After a 1500 mile trip, those damn things wore right through the paint. Never again!

 

HAD HD COVERSON FOR MANY YEARS ON MY 03 UC

PERFECT .. NO MARING ETC

 

Timely Post, Santa brought me a pair of HD bag covers (bra). Has anyone had trouble with these harming the paint job on their bags?

 

I use the lid haulers by ride tek. They work well and protect the paint.

The HD Covers if install right WORKS & Looks good... I do take mine off about every month or so and put down a good hard wax on the lids... They show NO wear or Paint\clear loss & protect the lids from foot damage from the Grandkids and the wife's..

 

After reviews I am going to purchase the covers from ridetek. Personally I like the style better then MOCO. Also it appears, again from reviews, more dissatisified people with the company covers. just my .02

 

I have the MOCO cover's and they work great. They keep the wife from scratching the tops with her finger nails.

 

I have the HD covers and use them on trips whent he OL is going. They certainly have prevented many roadside, gas stop domestic disputes. Personally, I prefer the way the HD ones fit over the other ones out there.

 

Had a set of the H/D lid covers on my 02 EGlide and never hurt the paint in any way . Usually removed them every so often to wax the lids down real good, but never left any marks. New owner still has them on to this day . A little bit of a pita to install, but ok otherwise .
