Stainless Steel Polished Centramatic Honda GL1800 Goldwing Wheel Balancers M/C or Trike on wingstuff.com
Rating:
I've had mine for a number of months now, and think they work fine especially that I don't see any tire cupping or wear pattern. Also very smooth riding.
However, I had a recient opportunity to run the bike up to 125 MPH and it began to vibrate pretty significantly and didn't go away going faster. Fork moving, or tire balance problem? I was surprised thinking the Centramatic Wheel Balancers would keep it smooth. |

Well, got one for me and one for my Buddie for a coming Yosemite trip we are going on May 18. This will hold my travel bag on the passenger seat which will become my back-rest.
I plan to install a trunk rack for the bag, but don't really like the looks of all that crap on the top of my trunk. How about you? Buddie's bike has little saddle bag room so it will hold his crap bag on his passenger seat as well. |

I installed one on both front and back today. Nice, will keep all my "small stuff" organized. I previously installed a Wing Stuff lid organizer, but couldn't close the lid after putting my helmet in, so I removed it. These two nets should be just fine for me.

I had AJ and his shop crew install this K1200GW. Blinks just the four lower brake lights, not the spoiler as AJ have it set up with the after market unit for running, braking and turn signal lights.
Man, this is sweet! Looks nice when it's working, and it gets the attention of who's behind me. Nice! |

Had AJ and their shop install them on my 1800 GW. Had them before on my 81, and drug my feet on the 2007 as there is a lot of light on high beams. Way better now, as cars obviously see me better.
Had AJ also put blinkers on my stop lights in the back too. |

Well, I don't much like it. My HJC helmet won't fit in the trunk if almost anything is in the organizer. Yup, even a few maps. Don't see using it if you plan to put your helmet in the trunk. Nice idea, just doesn't work. Pockets are real small anyway so not very practical either.

AJ and his shop crew installed this today. I thought this was a necessary safety improvement as a club member was just rear-ended at a stop light. Seems like it works fine to me, and I like how it's high on the bike where car drivers are looking and hopefully see I'm braking or turning!

Got my radio and OEM antenna for Christmas, and had AJ and his crew install them the first part of Jan.. A member of our club reported static, buzzing and short range with his, so was nervous about it as I don't do "not good" and didn't look forward to the hassle it it wasn't good.
So after using it successfully for a while now, I have no problems, and find it works great. I wanted it for safety on solo rides on the big road, and bike to bike, but not many have em as they are so pricy. I use a Scala Q2 for bike to bike in my group, which is way good for a lot less bucks. I have both set up in my same helmet, two sets of ears and two mics. No problem to use and not hard to do. |

AJ and his crew installed these today. Rode 75 miles home. I'm 6'4" and always felt the bars were too far away, and felt pressure in my shoulders on long rides. These risers fixed it! No more feeling pressure or feeling the bars were too far away. Very comfortable now, hooray! This is a "must do" for any serious cruisers.
Checked out the other risers, felt the grips may hit my legs or tank on max turns. |

AJ and their shop installed the left front today. Were getting a little thin at 19,000 miles. Noticed some "burning smell" returning home for a short time. Stops fine, a little more lever, otherwise the brakes seem "normal".

If you like lots of wind blowing on you to make you cold in the winter, and too hot in the summer, don't get these!
I have these on my Wing, and they are just great for me, just a nice amount of air movement during my ride, no wind blowing on me. I'd say these are a "must have" for all cruisers. |

I installed the ISO Grips and this wider model throttle boss on the throttle side. Nice looking, but is a problem riding the tight twisty roads when you need to roll off the throttle quickly. Gets in the way and adds throttle sometimes, which can surprise you setting up in the turn! I'm going to try to put it on the other side.

TireGard Motorcycle Trike Tire Air Pressure Monitor System SUPER SALE click to see video on wingstuff.com
Rating:
I've had them on my wing for 3/4 months now, and the system works great for me. I velcro'ed the monitor to my speedo compartment base so I can see it from time to time. Notice the air pressure increases like 10 F when tires get up to temp from riding.
I did get the monitor wet by forgetting to remove it first b/4 washing the bike. Now have a small spot partially blocking one tire reading! Will send it in this winter for repair. |

How do I easily remove the black tire marks from turning the bike, from my concrete?

Used this 10/40 oil and Honda filter. Seems to run smoother (might be my imagination) and shifts real nice. Oil and filter change needs 3.9 quarts.

Just inst5alled these, plus the http://wingstuff.com/pgroup_detail/265_Grips/23766_NEW_UPDATED_Comfort_Hand_Grip_Rest_Fits_Kuryakyn/?goto=%2Fpgroup_list%2Fgl1800%2F265_goldwing_Grips%2Fdes%2F.
Look nice, took me about an hour. Tried wire to close em, not too hot so ended up using a "C" clamp which worked great and fast. Grips now feel about the right diameter, and the rubber feels real nice. Should be comfortable with the palm throttle grip too. |

Had these installed today at Wing Stuff, Lake Forest. Made an advance appmt. and they were ready to begin right on time, and did a nice job ($75.00).
Rode about 75 miles on both fwy and twisties. Bike seemed more "smooth" on both type roads, particularly I liked the improvement in the turns. Very sure and smooth. No vibrations in the hand grips on the fwy.. Expensive, like $309.00 total but hey,smooth is always expensive! |

I bought this with low expectations. Wrong! Works just great to make riding into the sun a no problem solution to a major problem. I attached mine on the outside, and seems just great so far.

I bought the combo kit for $49.95, watched the video, printed out the instructions and read them, and as the instructions said, called Lucas,the manufacturer who said no problem!
While Lucas is very nice and is helpful, this Tankslapper film is just awful to get installed without a lot of time(I have about one full day doing and redoing the whole job) and a lot of silver bubbles showing up after it drys. The 3M film is better, but trouble too with lint and dust can ruin it, and shows "stretch marks" very easily (the headlights and fender are just a awful hard job). This might be "good stuff" but needs to be installed by Lucas. This is just too unsatisfactory for self installation without showing silver bubbles and trapped lint., and ruining your day! If the Tankslapper comes off during a bike wash, I'll be really pissed. |

Nice cover, however the part that covers the trunks is not lined, so in my area where we have a breeze, the cover flaps a little and the fabric rubs on the painted surfaces causing some paint dulling.
They should line the cover there with the same material as the windshield. |
