Trailer Hitch Rack & Rack Bag Combo
ITEM CODE: RIGL18008COMBO, SKU: RIGL18008COMBO
03.14.2010

| This is a great bag for touring. Purchased to fill the gap until I could get a trailer, I'm finding that the combination of security (ability to take off the rack when I go into the hotel room for the night, while out touring) and practicality (good amount of storage) may mean that I don't get a trailer for some time to come. Like the security (connection to the rack) by the use of the same manuf's cooler rack that is drilled out for locking steel rods that slip through the base of the bag. Looking forward to years of use! |
Kuryakyn Chrome Luggage Rack w/Rubber Inlay for GL1800
ITEM CODE: KU7151, SKU: KU7151

| Very nice luggage rack. Had some minor issues (my bad) on installing, but worked through it! Used star washers and Kury risers on the installation, and it came out so well (overall) that it has convinced a friend to take his Kury rack off and reinstall with the risers and star washers. |
Performance Stainless Belly Pan
ITEM CODE: WS187416, SKU: WS187416

| First belly pan that "Silver" has had. Just had it installed at the same time as a major service point (the 24/48/...) this morning, and took it out on Interstate 5 in strong wind (20+ above speed-created wind) conditions. Amazing difference. Only a fraction of the push that I'd previously experienced while riding alongside a semi. The acid test of performance will get tested when there's a strong cross-wind blowing through the nearby Tacoma Narrows (the one that had the wind that destroyed the "Galloping Gertie" Tacoma Narrows bridge that many of you might have seen the late-1940s film of), that have really pushed the Wing around. 30+ mph (or more) side winds, with higher gusts, across the bridge deck do occur, and they have been a BEAR to ride in. That'll be a real test of the difference this might make. I agree with some of the previous reviewers that use of slightly higher gage steel -- for additional impact protection --would be nice. Not enough to drop it to 4 stars. Will follow-up. |
Lighted LED Red Lens Trunk Molding for GL1800
ITEM CODE: KU3201, SKU: KU3201

| Just got the scoot back last night from the shop having these installed -- along with some other 'bling' (saddlebag bottom lighted trim by 'K', rotor covers with RoF, turn-down exhaust tips). These look fantastic against the replacement saddlebags (damaged when I was rear-ended by another scoot at a stoplight), and, I'm certain, will be a great safety addition to riding at night! Noticed that the cages behind me on I-5, on the way home after a post-"The scoot is back after 6 weeks!" celebratory dinner, were keeping their distance more than usual... like that's a BAD thing! |
Vertical Receiver Style Trailer Hitch for GL1800 1st Gen
ITEM CODE: AO451806, SKU: AO451806

| I wanted to add my two cents worth about this great product, including the considerable help provided by another WingStuff.com customer (smile)... Aside from being a great product, I found out that the hitch provided another valuable service -- completely unintended, I'm certain, from the manufacturer! Nor would I recommend this to other Wing riders! This product provided invaluable assistance in minimizing damage to my scoot when a rider -- in formation behind me -- broke traction on his H-D in the process of stopping behind me at a signal. The fact that his Harley impacted where it did meant the frame of the hitch absorbed most of the energy, limiting the principal collision damage to the fender and saddlebag tabs... and a slight tweak to the hitch mount. Recommend that you don't try this (smile) with this hitch, but, it did cause some chagrin to a number of H-D riders when only the Wing was able to be ridden-away! Great product! |
Kruzer Kaddy Drink Holder
ITEM CODE: PG20116

| Easy installation, and, in black, looks sharp on my Wing. Some disappointment in holding taller cups. I have experienced the unfortunate 'tippy cup' syndrome noted by others, and have had a couple of coffee spills when the cup did a 'more than 90 degree' rotation. A good first cup holder, though. I may get a different one, later; but, for now, it certainly helped to have drinks readily available on the road. |
Ergo II Highway Pegs for GL1800 Gold Wing
ITEM CODE: KU4056, SKU: KU4056
06.17.2008
5 Stars
| Just completed the first long-distance ride (Tacoma, WA to Baker City, OR, and back, plus additional toodle'ing around eastern OR) with these. I can't imagine how I could have done it without them! With a large 'b-seat' luggage bag, and these babies, I did a 7+ hour ride with only gas stops in comfort, and felt as though I could easily have ridden for a couple of more hours!! I may need to look at the shorter arms to maximize my comfort (long in the upper leg), and to make it look a little less like I'm getting ready for an exam from my OB/GYN (LOL). |
LED Front Reflector Conversion for GL1800/F6B
ITEM CODE: KU7455, SKU: KU7455

| Had these installed a couple of weeks ago, and just completed my first long-distance ride (to the Hells Canyon Rally) with them. I LOVE them! Got some positive remarks from other riders, and, I love the additional visibility provided to the scoot as running lights, and the additional turn signal visibility. |
