(4 stars) reviewed on 06/18/07 by FGD (fullmotordes) from , TN, United States, for a 2005 Kawasaki Vulcan 800A, Brilliant Blue 800 Vulcan wrote: I am 6'3" and these help a lot! The rear brake needed adjustment and the stock spring to activate the light was to short. So, I custom cut a longer spring (doesn't work that well but good enough). Be prepared to spend a couple of hours putting these on. Review Details  6 out of 6 members found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

(4 stars) reviewed on 06/07/06 by leo (omaar2006) from Escondido, CA, United States, for a 1997 / BLACK 800 Vulcan wrote: The foward controls came with the bike when I got it. I have had the bike and forward controls for six years now and it looks good. I have to admit that the forward controls might be better suited for a taller rider (I am 5'7"). Chrome is slightly flaking off on the underside, but still looks great. Completely changes the look of the bike. I just added the floorboards that go with this and It is a must with the forward controls. Review Details  3 out of 3 members found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

Nice to be able to stretch out and be comfortable. Only problem I had on install was getting rear brake retainer out or the factory mounting hole.(Fumble Fingers) Review Details  1 out of 1 members found this review helpful.

(3 stars) reviewed on 07/31/04 by Charlie (crlouk) from Augusta, GA, United States, for a 800 Vulcan wrote: They do what their suppose to do,but it lifts my legs up. I have a 36 inch inseam so my legs are still crouched somewhat. The position is more comfortable though. Install - I had to bore the holes in the bracket on the brake side for it to fit. Jardine said if I was not comfortable with that, they would send another pair. I also had to adjust the brake line at the rear wheel to fit. No additional purchases required for this to fit. Just a little time. Watch the cotter pins, I replaced with a heavier ones. I have a picture with me on the bike so that you can see where your legs go with the controls. Just ask. I used the pictures to make my judgement. Review Details  8 out of 8 members found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

(4 stars) reviewed on 08/30/02 by BW Saunders (bsaunders) from Richmond, VA, United States, for a 800 Vulcan wrote: They look good. Mounting was not too tough but they could use a shorter break cable because with the stock cable the adjuster has to be backed off fully to accomidate them. I do like that laid back feeling but think a set of pullback risers will complete the feel. Review Details  1 out of 1 members found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No
