Oil Filter Wrench
ITEM CODE: BB4201, SKU: BB4201
05.21.2021
Right tool for the job.
Fits the filter snugly without damaging it, with no need to remove the cowling to complete the job. I have a magnetic drain plug, so the wrench attachment will not work for me. Overall a very good wrench. |
Clutch/Brake Or Round Handlebar Drink Holder w/Basket
ITEM CODE: PG27629
02.08.2017
Handy to have
I've had mine for over 4 years now, and it's holding up all right. The metal rim is very sturdy, and the mesh cup holder is still intact. Put a little loc tight on the thumb screw to keep it from vibrating loose, and all is well. Overall, a pretty good product. |
Deluxe Luggage Rack Bag w/Rain Cover
ITEM CODE: WSRACKBAG, SKU: WSRACKBAG
02.08.2017
Very roomy
This bag fits very nicely on the luggage rack, fastens down securely, and holds a lot of stuff! It easily holds 2 light jackets, 2 heavier coats, and 2 rain suits. Or you can put 2 full face helmets inside if you don't have room in the trunk. The smaller pockets are handy for cell phones, binoculars, maps, sun screen, or other misc. items. The rain cover works great, fits well. and stays on at highway speeds. Overall, a good product. |
Centramatic Stainless Wheel Balancers for GL1800
ITEM CODE: CTMGW100-102, SKU: CTMGW100-102

Noticable difference
After putting these on, I noticed a smoother ride and better handling at both lower speeds and higher speeds. Have had no problem with wobble, cupping, or irregular tire wear. My tires are lasting a lot longer, which saves me money and makes me happy! A happy rider has more fun... Right? Plus, piece of mind is a good thing to have when you're far from home. Two of my buddies have ridden my bike, and told me they noticed the difference immediately between mine and theirs. We are now comparing tire life, and I'm winning! So far, I am happy with these and recommend them. |
Boms Away Metal Polish & Sealer
ITEM CODE: BOBOMSAWAY, SKU: BOBOMSAWAY
02.07.2017
Not too impressed.
Tried this product, but was not impressed. Did not seem to work any better than most of the over the counter products from the auto parts store. Did not produce a significant shine, and did not protect any better than any other polish. I get better results from Never Dull. |
Cold Weather Warmskin Face Mask
ITEM CODE: SPBLCLV012, SKU: SPBLCLV012
02.07.2017
Nice fit, very warm!
Does the job nicely. Saved my face and neck going through 600 miles of New Mexico in 25 degree weather last December! Snugs up the helmet a little bit, but not too uncomfortable. Seems to be made well, and easily washable. Overall, a pretty good product! |
HyperKewl Soakable Cooling Deluxe Wide Neck Tie
ITEM CODE: TN6520, SKU: TN6520
02.07.2017
Pretty good.
I bought this to go with my vest, and I must say it works pretty good! Keeps your neck about 15-20 degrees cooler than outside temperature and lasts a couple hours. When one side gets warm, just flip it over and you're back in business. Easy to re-charge in cool water for about 5 minutes. Nice to have on those hot days on the bike or off! |
Universal Black LED Battery Gauge
ITEM CODE: KU4218, SKU: KU4218
02.07.2017
Good gauge, easy install
Nice little gauge, well built, easy 10 min. install. Mounted below the handlebars, no problem with weather or vibration. VERY BRIGHT LED's s be sure to mount it somewhere that won't distract you while riding! |

So far, so good
I bought this battery in February last year to replace a smaller Shorai battery that lasted only 13 months. (my fault, I bought the wrong size). This one is going strong so far with no problems after about 12000 miles, and going from cold Illinois to warm Arizona. Fast starts, and runs all the accessories on my wing without a hitch! The only down side is they sell the charger separately. Fortunately, the first one I bought came with the charger, so it worked out well for me, although I haven't needed to use it yet. Overall a satisfactory product. |
