Avon Cobra Chrome Radial Tires for GL1800
ITEM CODE: PG23038
08.23.2013
Love the handling. Don't like the way they last
| I really like the way these tires handle. As the back tire wore down I noticed a low speed wobble that got worse as they got thinner. I managed to get 6,500 miles out of the back tire and it is shot. Cords showing all the way around. No wonder it wobbles so bad. Hoping to find some new ones that don't break the bank, handle as good and last lots longer. I replaced the front and rear at the same time and the front still has another 2 or 3 thousand I hope. |

Fantastic product
| I installed the 34 oz size cup holder on my 2006 GL1800 and had it done in 25 minutes. After the first ride I felt it was too far toward the rider so I reversed the swivel bracket and mounted it on the side closer to the windshield. Perfect fit and now I have more room to move and get to the bike controls. The 34 oz size is just right for my thirst and I don't know why you would want a smaller one. Love the extra lid for coffee and exotic drinks, (non-alcoholic only), I've been on the wagon since 1987. Great product and I would recommend it for any bike. |
P-Style Lower Headset Cords
ITEM CODE: PG03892

Perfect fit
| I installed the J&M headset and mic in an open face HJC helmet. The cable fit just right and connected to my 2006 model GL1800 installed intercom/audio cable connector. Fit is nice and tight as to keep the cables from coming disconnected during riding. Great product. I'll now order one for the passenger helmet. |
Premium AGM Sealed Westco High Amp Battery for GL1800 GL1800 Premium AGM Battery
ITEM CODE: WEWCP20L, SKU: WEWCP20L

| My Yussa original battery lasted 5 years and was loosing starting power fast. I installed the new SVR and it fit just right. The 4 star rating came from the holes that connect the battery posts to the leads. They were tight. I got them to fit but the bolt holes could have been 0.0325" closer to the center of the battery. This would have made it easier to connect to the leads. I bent the end radius of the leads inward to allow the bolts to match the holes in the battery posts. It fired up right away. The battery was delivered in 5 working days charged and ready to go. Hope to get another 5 years or more now. Great product. |
Rubber Baby Buggy Bumpers for GL1800

| Great product. Trunk rattle is now gone. I pulled the bottom tab off of the 2ond one I installed so was extra careful while installing the last 2. May be best to add 2 extra bumpers instead of just one. Easy install. |
Avon Cobra Chrome Radial Tires for GL1800

| After a set of Dunlop Elite III's I now have the Avons front and rear. So far I love them. They have fantastic grip and they do not make the corner noise the Dunlops made. I know they handle great because I am getting into the corners with more confidence and scraping my feet more than with the last tires. I'm hoping to get 12,000 miles on the rear and will add a report when I use them up. Great price as compared to other vendors. Excellent tires and they were at my door step in 3 business days. I had them filled with Nitrogen and the stems replaced at Power Sport Honda in Albuquerque west off I-25 on Montano to Renaissance Ave. Great service! Now I'm set for the summer season---> |
Comfort Grip Covers

| These grips are just what I have been looking for. I used some foam pipe insulating tube on my last bike but they were to big in diameter. These are perfect and not as hard to get on as other posts suggest. I stretched them on each end then rolled one end up an inch or so. With a couple drops of carnuba boat wash liquid on the grip I pushed one on until the outside end was in place then rolled the other end on. The first grip went on with no soap. Used a small diameter steel rod to help work it on. My first method was much easier. I would recommend these grips to anyone with larger hands. They raise the handlebar height about 1/4" also which is a plus due to my height of 6'2". |
HP4 Pro Performance Oil
ITEM CODE: PG03484

| I have changed the oil on my GL1800 twice and the Honda dealer has change it once so far. My engine runs very clean, makes lots of power and doesn't leak or burn any oil. I have changed the oil with this brand every 3,000 miles since I bought it used. I didn't know the history of the bike when I bought is so I have changed it more often. I'll probably to to 5,000 miles as time goes on instead of the recommended 8,000 in the owners manual. Better price than at the dealership also. My son uses Amsoil in his ZX14 drag bike but I'll have to see if it is OK for the wing. I use the oil filters listed on the GL1800 section of WingStuff also. Great write ups in the review section on those also. |

| As soon as I drove away I noticed less wind on my shoulders and head. The install went smoothly and instructions are clear and easy to follow. The Vent is not tight and I will have to get a gasket or use clear silicon to lock it into place. Maybe Honda has a gasket that fits, I'll check. Vision through the windshield is clear and it is easy for me to look over the top if I sit up high in the seat. I am 6'3" and the stock windshield was too short even when adjusted to the extreme upper position. There seems to be less wind buffeting also. Item was delivered quickly and with no damage. I recommend this windshield to anyone wanting more comfort while driving. Haven't had her on back yet so I'll have to see how she likes it. |

| Fantastic wind protection. I was getting side draft from the arms to my waist and first adding the Baker Hand Winds I noticed less wind. After adding these Baker Dual Adjustable Air Wings I now have a great turbulence free ride! I just ordered my tall windshield with vent and that will top off the package. Installation of the air wings went very smooth and I had them both on in an hour. The provided instructions are very complete and easy to follow. The included template and drill bit made it effortless. Nice job Baker! I would recommend these wings to anyone touring or not. |

| These wings made a big difference in the arm wind that I was getting. The install was swift and they look great. I choose the clear wings and they look like they are from the factory. Great mounting hardware and the adjustments allow nice positioning without loosening the mounting screw. Great job folks! |
Ergo II Highway Peg w/Mini Arms
ITEM CODE: KU4073, SKU: KU4073

| These pegs are finished without a flaw anywhere. The parts fit together with no problems and went on the bike in about an hour. (I am somewhat slow at installations). I like the adjustment range. I am 6' 3" so my feet ride on the outer edge of the peg. The normal riding position causes my leg to hit the faring so I just move them out a bit. Love the Kuryakyn brand! |
