Clutch/Brake Or Round Handlebar Drink Holder w/Basket
ITEM CODE: PG27629
03.05.2014
Good buy!
It took me awhile before I installed the cup holders on my bike only because I had my doubts. Finally got it on and it's not that bad. I would say holding water bottles and coffee cups with a closing cover will work great. However, coffee cups from 7-11 that do not have a cover for the drinking spout, not so good. I was hoping the basket would take up some of the shock when going over bumps and humps in the road, but not so much. Had some spillage the first time, but I had to use another cup cover to block the spout and it came out better. It is a bit costly and I'm hoping the chrome holds up here in Hawaii where salt air is a way of life. They should concider making powder coated ones for color matching and no rusting. Tony |

Can't go wrong!
If you change your own oil on your Goldwing, then you need to get a couple of these, at least. Thiking of getting a couple more packs, I would be set for the life of the bike and then some. Aloha! |
Ergo II Highway Pegs for GL1800 Gold Wing
ITEM CODE: KU4056, SKU: KU4056

Great Highway Pegs
Had my first ride today using the pegs and what a difference they make. Very comfortable in the sitting position, which I think allows better blood circulation for my legs and help with my back posture. I'm just praying the chrome holds up in this hawaii weather "RUST". Installation wasn't that bad considering the instructions ain't that great. I went over the instructions at least a dozen time before putting the pegs on. Once you install one side, the other side should go on quick. More pictures should be added to the instructions to help with the visual, that's the reason for the 4 stars instead of 5. The construction of these pegs is top notch, you can tell when you feel the weight, "HEAVY DUTY". The chrome looks nice and as I mentioned at the top, I hope they hold up. I was worried about the pegs slipping during my ride but, after seeing the adjustable stop on the pegs, I don't beleive these pegs will ever slip, unless you forget to tighten all the screws and bolts. Finally, the pegs add a different look to my bike, sort of like "Bling". Adds a little flare and looks great, for now. I hope this helps. |
Front Nose Mask for GL1800
ITEM CODE: PG00053
05.02.2011
5 Stars
The install was fairly easy and the nose mask gives the bike a new look. AWESOME PRODUCT!!! I own a 2007 and a little hint on the installation. There is a part that says to remove the trim pieces on both sides, well all you need to do is undo the pieces up to the bend in the trim, slide the tab in between the trim peice and the body of the bike, then snap the trim back in place. I figured this out on the second side. So far the easiest thing I have instaslled on my bike yet. |

F4 Scratch Resistant Clear or Tinted Windshields for GL1800
ITEM CODE: PG20048
04.07.2011
4 Stars
Followup: I've had this windshield for about a month and this is what I have experienced. The F4 is easy to clean and stays clean through my rides longer then the stock windshield. This windshield is so clear that at times it seems like it's not there. I can see everything in front of me with no problem. There is some glare and reflection when the sun is to your back, but not to bad. I caught a few down pours while riding home and as long as you are moving over 40 mph or 25 mph with some wind, the water beads off. However, in slow traffic, the water beads well but does not roll off, which I expected. All I need now is wipers for the slow travel. All in all, this is a great buy and well worth the money. |
F4 Scratch Resistant Clear or Tinted Windshields for GL1800
ITEM CODE: PG20048

Just installed the windshield and it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. I took about 45 min to an hour to do the install. I think watching the install video on YouTube several times before changing the windshield made a big difference. After installing I sat on the bike and could immediately see the difference. Planning on trying it out on the road this weekend and I will post my results after my ride. |
