About:
I live in Central Florida and am retired from Publix with 42 years of service.
My hobbies are SCUBA diving and long distance motorcycle touring.
My most favorite vacation was a live aboard dive trip to Australia and the Great BArrier Reef. We were on the dive boat for 10 days and dove as far north as Papua, New Guinea. My longest motorcycle vacation was 57 days and a little over 17,400 miles.
I love being retired!!
UPDATE:
My new best vacation was with Rick Arnoldo, and Fred Rau for a two week tour of New Zealand. We did both islands arriving in Christchurch and departing Auckland, New Zealand. We flew over and rented motorcycles for the duration. I finished off my trip with a one week stop in Hawaii. Went to North Shore and surfed Wiamei Bay which was a bucket list item

Upper Air Deflectors for 2018+ Gold Wing
ITEM CODE: HO08R72MKCA01, SKU: HO08R72MKCA01

Great fitment, good performance
These airwings follow the contours of the bike and look amazingly good on the bike. The installation is straight forward. I would suggest a step bit for installation as it makes the process easier and looks more professionally done. The wings work great and living in Florida i appreciate every extra cubic inch of air I can get. Good design and fitment. |
Rear Fender Filler Strips

keep the back clean
So simple to install, no lights and no wiring to hook up. This is a simple install and blocks all the road dust and rain slush that normally comes up through the gap on the rear of the bike. Sure helps to keep the rear of the bike a lot cleaner |

Good patch to signify a great ride
Going to New Zealand with Fred & Rick and wanted a patch to signify the ride. This is a quality patch and will fit well with my other travel patches. |

A great item to have
Installed homelink on my 2018 Goldwing. This is a marathon installation project of 5 hours but the results are fantastic. I don’t have to mess with remotes and the system has two channel’s (switches) I can open the gate to the property and the garage door on the move and just drive into the garage——-all done from on the bike. Don’t have the stress of remembering or finding two remotes or the chance of loosing them. |
Bridgestone Tire COMBO for 2018+ Gold Wing G852/G853

Best Tires.........EVER
This is my 4th Goldwing and have used the Bridgestones for the last two after trying almost everything under the sun. This is my 3rd set of tires on my 2018 Goldwing , my second set of “Stones” after the OEM Dunlop’s. The tires far out perform the Dunlop’s especially on wet pavement. I give these 8 out of 10, only holding back 2 points for mileage . These are great tires. |

Amazing safety device
The install took some time and patience but the results were very much worth it. This unit is amazing, I went from just a rack mounted brake light (Honda) to a technological superior unit with sequential turn signals, modulating brake light, and a running light. I would say the safety factor increased exponentially. |

ISO-Grips for use w/OEM Heated Grips for GL1800
ITEM CODE: KU6183, SKU: KU6183

Grips are of poor quality
Kuryakyn continues to have chrome problems. Had these grips a little over a year and the chrome on both grips is flaking off at the seam where the two halves meet. Function and fit are good, quality of product leaves a lot to be desired. |
