NICE PRODUCT
First, I purchased the hand wings and to my surprise they worked as advertised. A few weeks later I purchased the New Generation Dual Wings and installed them today. I watched the installation video and had them on within 30 minutes including the start up and clean up times. I then took a 30 mile ride with temps around 55 degrees. My first test was to close all the wings and see how much air was still getting to the riders area. Actually, the only air I felt was coming from around the triple tree/fork area. I then open the lower wings to see if I could feel any warm air off the radiators. There seem to be a small amount passing through. At this point I open the upper wings and hand wings at the same time. Wow, I got an instant blast of 55 degree air in the cockpit. I closed the upper wings but still received about half the amount from the hand wings. So, I closed the hand wings and return to a very comfortable 55 degree, 30 mile ride. In summary, I found this product to be very easy to install and of superior quality. Additionally, I also found they performed just as well if not better than those I had on my previous gl1500's. |
Stop and Go Tubeless Tire Plugger With C02 Cartridges

Plugger
This thing really works. When I received the kit I made a repair just to test the item. Just make sure that when you are inserting the plug to screw the allen wrench in until it stops and want go any further. A few weeks after the test run I found a nail in the center of my rear tire, "which sucks". Current tread was about 40% remaining. The plug went right in and stayed with no leaks. I want tell you how far I rode on the plug for fear of being beating with a large stick, but is was some distance. When the shop removed the tire we found the plug was flat against the inside of the tire, just like a professional boot,less the glue. Additionally, there was NO air lost. Make sure that you do a test run when you first get it. Really, it's a piece of cake to use after that. |

More light!! Can you see me now????
Just what I needed more light.lol Like chrome you can't have to much, especially if you happen to ride a Black wing. The installation was easy, However, I had to contact the the company, Electrical Connection. Seems as though the wiring diagram information supplied didn't match my bike. Not to worry through, they came to my aid and we had the problem solved in about 5 minutes. Very nice product, quality and people to deal with. |

Provides a little more light, just what ever one needs on the rear of a bike. Went together pretty well, did have problems getting the top to screws in the center piece started. Oh well, all can't be fun and games. |
Chrome Lower Front Cowl for GL1800

NICE CHROME, BUT A VERY POOR FIT.
Nice chrome, I've got my fingers crossed that it will hold up. As far as fit, it sucks!!!!! Take your time and don't get PO'ed when you find out that it doesn't install as easily as the OEM cover. I actually had to force the right top outside screw hole over about an 1/8' using a brake spoon as a wedge against the timing cover to get the screw started. Hope nothing splits during use. I dread the day when I will need to remove it to bleed the clutch. If you have fog lights be prepared to spend additional nerve racketing time removing the cut outs. For the price the cover should have fit like the original and I would have given 5 stars. Because it didn't, it pushed me to give as much as a 3. |

WOW
Installed these Hand Wings and took a short 30 mile ride. The clear wings with the black hardware looks great on my Black bike. All I can say is WOW. The craftmanship is superb and they do work as advertised. I did have a minor problem removing the right screw from the mirror. Finally used an inpact driver in an attempt not to damage the head with a regular screw driver. A couple of licks while holding the the top of the mirror housing did the trick. Looked as though the factory had used some type of locktite on the right mirror only. |
Utopia Driver Backrest for GL1800 2001-2017

NICE
Installation is a piece of cake. FYI, toss the 1/4 lock washers aside, use larger washers and 242 loctite. Forget the knife, get yourself a $2.49 12" demolition Reciprocating Saw Blade at your local building supplier. Wrap a rag around it and make a couple of passes toward the holes you drill. You will be able to clearly see the blade when you near the holes. Before inserting the backrest bracket use a 5/16 drill to cut a lead/countersink in the 1/4-28 holes. Just a lead, do not allow the drill to remove more than a thread or two. You may need to run a tap into the holes to clear up the first thread or two. The possibility of cross threading is then eliminated. Insert the backrest bracket, use 1/4 x 1" washers to add better support, remember this is plastic not metal you are bolting the bracket to. Installation time is thirty minutes to an hour including pulling and replacing the seat if you get all the tools in place to do the job before you start. By the way, don't worry about cutting the seat you'll get over it, at least I did. Good luck |
