Have had some of their stuff over the years and you really have to keep an eye on the chrome or it will rust or flake on you. If you are the type of guy that polishes all your chrome regularly with a cleaner/protector you will be fine. If you are a wash and go kinda guy, it is going to rust on you. Don't know anything about their electronics.

Got to keep up on the cleaning..
The rest of there stuff I consider imported overpriced junk with NO customer support
Had their offset highway pegs on my last bike with the same results. Ended my Kury purchases.

I've had many Kuryakyn products throughout the years and only have one glitch and that was one of the mirrors. The coating on the mirror started to fade. I took it to a rally on the bike and showed them, was given a card, called a number and had a brand new mirror sent out to me.

Try taking something back to HD and if you did not buy from where ever you are trying to take it back, and have the receipt you will be told to **** up a rope in no short order.

Kuryakyn is a STAND UP COMPANY and they do not have any more issues w/their chrome than does HD and as already mentioned some of their stuff is made by the same manufacturers.

I 've used some of their stuff over the years , the only problem I had was with pitting that started on my left mirror with the blind spot mirrors , it was out of warranty but I called them any way and they went ahead and replaced it , what else could you want

All I've ever had from them is foot pegs, grips and the silver bullet turn signals. I have zero complaints about any of the items I've tried. They were all what I wanted and as good as I expected. The love the ISO pegs on my Dyna. I've had them since 94 and I've only replaced the rubber once. They outlasted anything else I've tried. I have heard some less than complinentary comments about some of their performance products like the hypercharger, but I have no experiance with any of those. I can give big kudos to their customer service. They helped me tremendously with the bullets when one of the signals wouldn't blink.

I have been using their ISO grips, stiletto pegs, adjustable passenger pegs, shift lever and brake pedal covers for several years. I am very happy with them.

My wife really liked their high mount passenger pegs when we had a softail. The quality of chrome on my pegs is exceptional.

One of my highway pegs fell off due to a bolt that backed out over time without me noticing it. The peg slid down the highway, took a bounce, flew up in the air before hitting the road and sliding to a stop. The chrome was barely scratched. I polished it up, put it back on the bike. It was still in good enough shape to transfer it to the bike I ride now and still looks good.

Thumbs up for their pegs and grips for sure. I haven't tried anything else.

I have several Kuryakyn products on my Ultra and I'm very happy with the quality, fit and looks.
