| I tried these for the first time on my new tires....they're fantastic! WORK perfectly just like they say they will....they are impossible to get into the tire without breaking the bead though! |

5 Stars all the way!!! I have had this windshield on my 2002 GL 1800 since the summer of 2003 and I've never wished to have anything else on the bike. Buffetting is gone completely for the rider, and the pillion gets much improved air movement, and much less turbulence for the back seat driver. I DO NOT like looking through a windshield, so this is perfect for me...generally, the shield is either at the lowest or second lowest point and I look over the top of the windshield by 8 - 10 inches, and get just enough breeze in the face to be comfortable. Only the rare June Bug gets through the wind curtain to the forehead. I do not have the electrical connection to make the shield go up and down on the fly, so I make my adjustments manually - I prefer it that way - much less to go wrong. If you like looking OVER your windshield instead of THROUGH your windshield - once you have tried this, you wil be very happy with it. |
Comfort Grip Covers

I used golf grip solvent to put them on - went on perfectly and with little effort. I'll be interested to see how they hold up in the hot sunshine over the summer months. I like how they feel, and they allow the heat from my factory heated grips to come through very nicely. The jury is still out on the final answer, but like one guy said - "It's worth the $10 to try them for a season..." I can always take them off and go back to the old "system". |

Great functionality - looks really nice, and with the Honda Embossed Emblem it looks like it came from the factory. I love having another place to store small items so it made my day when my wife bought it for me. |
Red LED w/Clear Lense Chrome Trunk Handle
ITEM CODE: KU3215, SKU: KU3215

I have to rate this product twice...Overall - it's a 5 on the looks and functionality of the product. Adds great looks by giving trunk a more finished look, stability in opening, and of course one more light to flash when braking. Overall, it was worth the cost, and the gigantic HEADACHE of putting it on the bike. Now to the other grade - INSTALLATION - is definitely a 1 - an absolute BEAST to install for me. Mainly because the quick connectors from Kuryakyn didn't maintain contact so when the lid slammed shut, the wires would vibrate apart and no lights...I took it all apart three times, and finally I just cut all the quick connect stuff apart and hard-wired it. Works now, but sure had me talking to myself and using a bunch of made up words while putting it together. Both shorter and longer screws came with mine, and i ended up using the short ones - the long ones were too long and the handle ended up sticking out from the trunk by an eighth of an inch or more, so I went with the shorter ones and they worked great. |

| As the other gentleman stated, after two riding seasons of sunshine, weather, and bugs...the finish is tarnished, and has dulled significantly. This bird has flow his last mission for me...he's going down... |

| I've had these on my Wing for 5 years, and I wouldn't be without them. They have a nice look to them, accomplish their goal by keeping hands warm in cold weather, and reducing buffeting on windy days...especially for the pillion. They're not perfect for all things, but then, life isn't perfect either... |

I had one of these and rode it all the time for three years,logging approxately 25,000 miles, but unfortunately, mine developed a hole in the seam where the top and bottom are welded together. I tried everything I could get my hands on to repair the small hole in the seam, but I just couldn't make it stick. While it was intact, this offers the best long ride seating comfort on the market - bar none. The only reason I listed it a "4" is because when you pay this kind of price for something, it should last longer than three seasons. I'll be buying another one before my next long trip. Gus |

| I'd be happy to advertise for WingStuff, but I am not going to pay them to do it. This would be a great marketing tool for WingStuff if they'd throw one in with every $50 order. I'd wear them and hand them out... |
Kuryakyn Chrome Luggage Rack w/Rubber Inlay for GL1800
ITEM CODE: KU7151, SKU: KU7151

Nice rack - looks great, and is fairly functional, especially with the bag designed to accompany this rack. A little tough to dry off the bike underneath the rack, so recommend getting the risers and star washers when installing...that will stabilize the feet and distribute the torsion on the feet when hitting bumps or tightening. The rubber insert came off mine and I had to purchase some good epoxy to keep that on the rack. I've had that problem with other Kuryakyn products that have rubber parts glued or stuck on. All in all, it's the best looking rack on the market, and I am glad I got it. |

These are okay, and a bit of a pain to install, but my wife likes them as it almost feels like having "doors" on the rear of the bike. Nice to have a place for a drink, but the elbow pads are not very soft for extended ride times. One broke off for me while driving down the road (without a rider)at 70mph and created lots of excitement behind me. The dealer told me the one year warranty was expired, so I had to buy a new one to replace the one that broke off. I probably would not buy these again, but that's just my personal opinion. |
