About:
I've been riding motorcycles since the age of 16, having had a good number of motorcycles, all Hondas.
Present bike is a 2002 GL1800. Now at age 61, I still like to get away to attend at least one major m/c rally per year. There's nothing that beats the excitement and pleasure of riding the "open roads", particularly with friends who enjoy this sport as much as I.
Ride Safe, ya hear!!

Front Fairing Trim for GL1800
ITEM CODE: KU7322, SKU: KU7322
06.19.2008
4 Stars
| As one of the reviewers already mentioned, the trim piece has a little less curvature than the fairing, otherwise I would have given this item a 5-star rating. Installation was straight forward and quite easy. Just be sure to apply more than average pressure to the outside ends, while holding it in place for a minute or two. Otherwise you will have a gap at either end or both ends. Nice accent piece, particularly if you have the Knight Rider leds installed. |
Fog Light Lens Protectors

| Cheap insurance for protecting those costly driving lights. Don't ask me how I know! There is some drilling involved to mount these covers, so take your time and use many smaller drill bits to evenly get to the size required, which if I recall was 15/32, to use the rubber grommet type fasteners. As one of the other reviewers stated, it would have been nice to have gotten "chrome" mounting bolts, particularly if your lower front cowl is chrome. These are stainless steel, I believe, which is the next best bolt to use for this application. |
Chrome Lower Front Cowl for GL1800
ITEM CODE: BB52608, SKU: BB52608

| My OEM front lower cowl was getting to look a bit tacky due to numerous small rock chips around my driving lights. I debated going with Kuryakyn's lower front chrome covers that fit around the driving lights to hide these, but opted going with a full new chrome front instead. I'm glad I did, as it goes nicely with the chrome timing cover that I added some while back, plus as an added bonus, I saved $20, as compared to what Kurkakyn wanted for their covers. I also opted installing the Hondaline driving light protective covers to protect those costly EC driving lights. Don't ask me how I know! As all GL-1800 owners know who have replaced their lower front cowl, it's not the easiest thing to do, getting every thing to line back up. Plus having to dremel out the driving light knock-outs and reinstalling my EC spring loaded driving light mounts was a bit of a hassel. But once done, it was worth the hassles and my efforts. My '02 has gotten itself a new "facelift". It's happy and so am I. |
Vertical Receiver Style Trailer Hitch for GL1800 1st Gen
ITEM CODE: AO451806, SKU: AO451806

| Installed this hitch to my '02 GL1800 last weekend. I must agree with the other reviewers, in that the instructions leave a lot to be desired. But all in all, this is a pretty good hitch for the money. My only disappointment in the design is that the two rings that you fasten your trailers safety chain to, could have been built stronger IMHO. Other than that, the hitch appears to be well built and should serve it's purpose quite well. |
