Enhanced TireGard TPMS 2 Wheel + Trailer

Right Product, Bad Execution
|
I've been through three of these, and all of them have failed after one year of use. The common failure mode is the display either goes blank or becomes unreadable. On the second and third units I used the protective cover, but that had no effect. One of three units had poor pressure reading accuracy. The readings drifted, readings were referenced against a very precise pressure gauge. The product has the right idea, and very useful when it works. The fact is the unit is designed poorly and appears to have low quality display and electronics. In the end I gave up and just resigned myself to manually checking pressures. |

Functional, not reliable, and fragile
| I've been through two of these systems. The first one just quit reading the pressures, so the company replaced the entire assembly. That unit worked OK, but the pressures were not accurate. The right and left trailer pressures were as much as 2 PSI different when a precision gauge showed them to be identical. The pressure accuracy seems to drift, even when sitting in the garage where the temperature is uniform across the entire bike and trailer. The receiver unit is fragile, and can be damaged by dropping it or getting moisture on it. The second unit just failed for reasons I can't understand, so I'll be looking at what else is out there. In summary, this is quite an expensive unit for something that is not very robust. |
F4 Scratch Resistant Clear or Tinted Windshields for GL1800

| I bought the tall windshield and am glad I did. I've been riding for two years and over 20,000 miles behind this windshield, and it is excellent. The tall windshield significantly reduced helmet buffeting, and keeps the weather off of you. As for cleaning, I've cleaned this windshield at least 100 times, and there are no scratches whatsoever! I use Windex as prescribed. I've also take a few rock hits, and there are only small marks where the rocks hit, but no cracks at all. And despite the tall profile, the windshield is stiff enough that it does not oscillate in even the worst cross winds. This is an essential item for any Wing. |
F4 Scratch Resistant Clear or Tinted Windshields for GL1800

| I installed the 4" taller windwhield on my 2007 Wing, and couldn't be happier. I'm 6'2", and this windwhield is perfect for eliminating wind buffeting. Whether hot or cold riding, the taller windshield improves endurance for long rides. The optical clarity is excellent, and it resists abbrassion as advertised. I've wiped a lot of bugs and road grit of this windshield, and it still look new. Windex and a terry cloth towel is all I use to clean it. it's worth the money. Oh, by the way, the support from the F4 Customs OEM is excellent. |

| Functionally they are good, and add a degree of comfort when compared to the stock pegs. The look good as well. However, the design leaves something to be desired. The set screw that fixes the "Wing Board" in place is underdesigned and slips after minor use. You can't put enough torque on it to adequately secure the wing board with a standard hex wrench without breaking the wrench. If you put foot pressure on the edges, they will come loose. |
