About:
Native Texan. Married 26 years and momma finally agreed to tour with me on two wheels. Kids are away at college now, and I want to have some fun while we're young enough to enjoy it; not that 45 is old, but it ain't 25 either.

Centramatic Stainless Wheel Balancers for GL1800
ITEM CODE: CTMGW100-102, SKU: CTMGW100-102
06.01.2011
5 Stars
| Just put these on with a new set of E-3's and I don't think I've ever loved my bike so much. I know the new tires account for a lot of the improved handling, but the smoothness added by the Centramatics is something I've never found anywhere else. These things seem to take away all horizontal vibrations, which of course is what makes the bike wiggle. Even when you hit a bump, the vibration is more slight and immediate, and seems to be vertical only. I'll have to come back on the tire wear, but as for the ride improvement, I'M SOLD (and even looking at putting a set of these on my Suburban). |
Ergo II Highway Pegs for GL1800 Gold Wing
ITEM CODE: KU4056, SKU: KU4056

| Just installed these and can't wait for my next road trip. As others have stated, instructions were useless (something Kury seems to be known for) but total assembly and install was still only about an hour. The quality overall is what really makes these stand out in a crowd. Super fit and finish. |
12V DC GL1800 Fairing Power Socket
ITEM CODE: HO08U55MCA101, SKU: HO08U55MCA101

| As others have questioned, not sure why Honda didn't put this in place to begin with, but... Easy install, works great and is completely out of the way. A must have for those cell phones and iPods, and great for an air compressor too. |
GL1800 Honda Fog Lights w/ or w/o AIR BAG
ITEM CODE: PG00065

| Cost a bit more than the others, but after reading about and handling the others, this was a no-brainer. Well worth the extra $$$. Complete install took me about 2 hours, and the hardest thing was trying to dig out the factory plug from inside the left fairing...the instructions made it look more accessible than it was. Also opted for the Electrical Connections Hi-beam by-pass harness. VERY happy with the whole package, much better ground lighting, and I'm told that I'm much more visible to other motorists. Mission accomplished! |
Front Nose Mask for GL1800
ITEM CODE: PG00053

5 Stars
| The look, quality and fit of this piece is as good as any I've ever seen. I admittedly took a beating on the price by buying it from the dealer, but it's been on the bike now since the day I brought it home. Probably still one of the most complimented things on my Wing, and now Wingstuff has a smokin' price on them. |
Kuryakyn Passenger Transformer Floorboards for GL1800
ITEM CODE: KU7006, SKU: KU7006

| AWESOME quality chrome, great fit. Best of all my wife LOVES them. She's 5'-10" and has to stretch those long legs every once in a while. She says just having a second position to ride in has all but eliminated any discomfort. As we all know, when Momma's happy, we're all happy! Now, one side note to Kuryakyn, when you want people to pay a couple hundred bucks for something, spend the extra 2 cents for a spring and ball bearing. Having to completely disassemble both sets of boards, just to rob out a spring and ball to install in the new set was not hard, but just REALLY ridiculous when you pay for supposed quality. |

| These do add a much needed touch of chrome to my silver Wing. As stated in many other reviews, I too believe these to be a bit expensive for plastic. If they keep their finish, I'll still be happy to have paid it. Lots of compliments on these babies. |
Kuryakyn Chrome Luggage Rack w/Rubber Inlay for GL1800
ITEM CODE: KU7151, SKU: KU7151

| Love this rack! Great chrome typical of the quality I'm used to from Kuryakyn. The hardest thing about the install was convincing myself to drill holes in the trunk of a new bike. Once I got past that, the install was a snap. Eventually I'll get the risers and a spoiler to complete the look I really want, but all in good time. Another great produt from Kuryakyn and Wingstuff! |
ISO-Grips for use w/OEM Heated Grips for GL1800
ITEM CODE: KU6183, SKU: KU6183

| One of the best purchases I've ever made for my Wing. No more fatigue or hand cramps from those small factory grips. There is some heat loss, but also a LOT of vibration loss. Definitely a trade I'd make any day. Another awesome product from Kuryakyn and Wingstuff! |
Vertical Trailer Hitch for GL1800 1st Gen
ITEM CODE: KU7642, SKU: KU7642
04.30.2010
5 Stars
| I installed this on my Wing in about 90 minutes. As stated in many reviews, I too love Kuryakyn's quality on everything that I've bought, but but have found their installation instructions to be somewhere between lousy and useless in most cases. This one is no different. Luckily this hitch is a very straight-forward install. A little common sense, patience, and a few extra tools to hit the right angles are all that's needed to git-r-done. I must admit I haven't towed with it because I haven't gotten a trailer yet, but I do have a hitch rack mounted on it right now. It's very sturdy and secure. Works great for the rack, and I'm sure it will for towing when the time comes. Very pleased. |
Kuryakyn Chrome Floorboards w/Heel Shifter
ITEM CODE: KU4038, SKU: KU4038

5 Stars
| I looked at several different brands before deciding on Kuryakyn. The quality and appearance of these boards is absolutely show quality. Floorboards and the heel-toe shifter take some getting used to, but once I got comfortable with the change, I fell in love with these. Well worth the cost and installed in 20 minutes. |
Kuryakyn Driver Backrest w/Storage Pouch for GL1800
ITEM CODE: KU8990, SKU: KU8990

| This is one of my best investments yet. I put it on at the same time I installed a set of bar risers. I immediately took off on a 450 mile trip, and now know what it feels like to ride the world's most comfortable bike. Highly recommended product; easy to install and adjust, and as usual, the Kuryakyn quality is top-notch. |
