FAQs

What motorcycle models is this fairing trim compatible with?

This Kuryakyn Fairing Side Molding Trim is designed specifically for the Honda GL 1500 model from 1988.

Does this trim interfere with my stock reflectors or accessory lights?

No, the trim is designed with a stock-like fit to allow for the use of OEM reflectors or accessory lights without interference.

What is included in the package?

The package includes the fairing side molding trim pieces, special fasteners for installation, and "Hot Spot" chrome end plugs.

How do I clean and maintain the chrome finish?

Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap solution and dry with a microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Is this trim difficult to install?

Installation typically involves using provided fasteners and careful alignment. While not overly complex, a user comfortable with basic motorcycle customization should be able to install it.

What is the purpose of the "Hot Spot" chrome end plugs?

The "Hot Spot" chrome end plugs are decorative elements that provide a finished, polished look to the ends of the trim pieces.

Troubleshooting

Trim does not fit flush against the fairing.

Ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of debris. Re-align the trim carefully, checking that no factory components are obstructing the fit. Verify you are using the correct fasteners for each point.

OEM reflectors or accessory lights do not fit after installation.

Double-check the alignment of the trim. The design should allow for clearance, but slight adjustments might be needed. Ensure no part of the trim is incorrectly positioned, interfering with mounting points.

Chrome finish appears dull or tarnished.

Clean the trim with a soft cloth and mild soap solution. Dry thoroughly with a microfiber cloth. Consider using a dedicated chrome polish for restoration if simple cleaning is insufficient.
