I want to share a post I read on another forum and I sure hope the owner of this information won't mind me simply copying from his original post and pasting here:
I like the armrest but hated that I was unable to remove them when my wife wasn't riding. Even when you remove the top case, who wants to ride around looking awkward ( bat-wing ). I ended up going to a local machine shop and had them cut and modified with a slotted male and female coupling that is held together with one bolt. Its easy to remove and looks good. Check out the pictures. BMW should have made them this way in the first place. For the $750. price tag and then $200. for the modification all to make the wife happy.
