Adjustable Upper Air Deflectors
ITEM CODE: KU6578, SKU: KU6578

Very easy install! These match the lower Kuryakyn air deflectors and look like they came on the bike. They are adjustable to block or allow more air. Not sure I will ever move them, will have to see what they are like in spring and summer. They do remove some of the air off the hands, which is great when I am riding in mid 30 to 40's degree weather.

Twin Rail Floorboards w/ Optional Black Driver Adapters

OK, overall I really like these. First issue I had was that the right floorboard splined plate that attaches to the inside portion of the floorboard with a 5/16 SAE allen head, the holes would not line up with the splined plates in the forward position. The cause of this was the black coated floorboards, the coating was a little thick preventing the plate from seating properly. It was a quick and easy fix for me. I used my dremel tool to remove a little bit of metal from the splined plate around the top forward edge. The modification was quick and will never be seen. If you have this issue, do not try to modify the actual floorboard as you will damage the finish, regardless if it is black or chrome. Second complaint is that the screws are silver and stick out like a sore thumb against the black. Since I installed these onto the 3 way adjustable highway mounts, they will be folded up when not in use, and present what I would say is a cheap look. Trust me, they are not cheap! Very good quality. So I suppose I will be visiting ACE hardware or Lowes for some black replacement bolts. Looking forward to getting out and trying them out. I had floorboards on my highway mounts on my 2008 Wing, and I love them. Floorboards give me lots of options on where and how a rest my feet while riding. Tested them in the garage, and they feel great!

I have been using this software since April 2012. Safeguard the "Pass Key" needed to utilize the program. My PC recently crashed and lost everything. Needless to say, I need to work with this software and don't have my Pass Key.
The software is very simple to use and works as described.

7-LED Muth Turn Signal Mirrors for GL1800
ITEM CODE: PG34224

Ok, so back in 2012 I ordered the first generation of the 7 LED mirror,many was not happy. Both Wingstuff and Muth reacted extremely well at that time and exchanged the 7 LED for the better,,at that time, 5 LED mirror. I wrote a very long email to Muth at that time explaining why I was not happy with the 7 LED mirror. Simply stated, the original,7 LED mirror lights could not be seen very well.

I recently totaled my 08 Wing and have sine purchased another Wing. (Wingstuff should love me with the thousands of $$$$. I have spent!). I had the 5 LED mirrors on the old Wing and when I totaled it I found that Muth no longer offered them, and that they had updated the 7 LED mirror with larger, and brighter 7 LED mirror. I had no idea how good they were and had decided I would not,add them based on my previous experience back in 2012. I just didn't feel that they would be worth the money.

This past weekend my wife and two other friends were on a short ride. We headed up a very windy, steep mountain road that we have been on a hundred + times. We were riding in a standard staggered formation. I was riding as tail gunner and my wife, also on a Wing, was just,ahead of me to the right side of the lane. As we came around a 30 MPH curve, traffic,ahead was,at,a,complete stop. Everybody stopped OK, however, the road was banked heavily,to the right, and my wife, after,about 30 seconds just could not hold up her Wing and it fell to her right. Ops, right mirror broken and housing scratched. So, I ordered the new, IMPROVED DRAMATICALLY, MUTH 7 LED mirrors for her bike.

They really are FANTASTIC! The new 7 LED's are at least as big if not bigger that the old 5 LED mirror. Plus, there are 7 LED's! Big plus!

Great job MUTH! Wingstuff, you have my permission to remove my one star rating from 2012! I would give the new 7 LED mirror 10 stars if possible!

Oh, and yeah, I will now be ordering another set for my replacement Wing! More money for Wingstuff!

Just added these very simple trim pieces. I never know what I was missing! Really added a small piece that just completes and enhances the view. Took about 2 minutes to install and fit perfectly.

Love these, they allow me to shift my feet around into different positions and shifting works great. CAUTION if you have large feet, these probably won't be your best option. Also keep in mind that with floor boards when you put your feet on the ground, you do have to move your legs wider, which translates into if your legs are shorter you will have some difficulty trying to flat foot.

A real plus when you are adding multiple accessories. Keeps wiring simple. Take the time to use dialectic Greece on the connections. It will keep the moisture out and provide trouble free operation.
