I got my new turndown tips from Hal and put them on yesterday. My stock tips came off easily though the bolts were slightly rusted. The inside of the OEM tips were moderately rusty. The new turndowns fit perfectly and look great. Kuryakyn even provided stainless steel bolts for the attachment (they left out lock washers however). I'll let you know if the chrome has any problems. So far I am very pleased with the product and price.

The Kury turndowns showed up for the wifes bike also. I took off the stock tips. I reached in the box pulled out a tip for the right side. Installed the right tip. Reached in the box..................another tip for the right side. Two tips for the right side in the same box.

Something I did notice was the Kury tips are not as snug as the stock tips.
They turn down the same distance as the Hondaline turndowns.

Could you please comment on the change, if any, in the exhaust sound?

UNCLEMASLO,

Thank you for this information, you seem to be happy with them. I wonder are they better than the Showchrome Tips. :wink: ops

 

[Unclemaslo]

Sorry Big Red, I don't have any info on the Showchrome tips. GoldWingGuy, I didn't notice any change in the sound. The bike is so quiet anyway and my minidisc player is on high so I didn't notice a difference. I hate to plug Kuryakyn because I have two of their products that I've had problems with but these seem OK so far! My first impression is good.

Big Red- I use the Big Bike turn downs from Hal. The quality and fit were first class. I drilled my mufflers some for a little more agressive sound. With turndowns and stock (undrilled) mufflers, I would say there was very little difference in sound.

My Best Buds in California surprised me with a set of Hondaline turn downs for my birthday last August. I was taken back by their generosity as they also loaded my bike up with Frame Covers and a bunch more stuff. Way overboard.

I never would have bought the the turn downs myself, just based on price. After mounting them, I realized that the back of my bike stayed cleaner. So just for that it is worth having them for myself.

I never thought that I would say this, but I recommend turn downs for the GL 1800. Manufacture of choice, but I would look at all of them, as there are some differences.

GoldWingGuy,

With the Kurys installed I detect a slightly louder rumble under speeds of 40 mph. Above that, I can't tell any difference.
