| I wanted to ad my two cents to the reviews about the Progressive Monotube suspension for the 5ht Gen Goldwing. As many of us, I’m on a budget and can’t afford the high price tag of the famous traxxion suspension upgrade. If you don’t have much time to read this review here it is the summary:Is it better than stock? Yes. Is it worth it? Yes. Is it bumpy as others claim? Unfortunately, Yes.I am 5’7” 170 lbs guy that rides 90% solo. I followed the instructions religiously and added the exact amount of the recommend Honda fork Oil. The ride is improved, however the price is to pay is that you will have a bumpier ride, especially at speeds between 10-50 mph. I was following my wife behind the car and she thought I was flashing my high beams. Before I installed this suspension, I tried replacing the fork oil with a 15W, which was an improvement but was not what I wanted. If you hate the harshness of the stock suspension and don’t have the $$$$ to pay for the traxxion upgrade, I think this can be an alternative. However, remember that your ride will be bumpier. Is very weird, is bumpy but is not uncomfortable. It handles great at high speeds (80+mph) and I consider myself to have an aggressive ridding style. To completely enjoy the added benefits of the new upgraded suspension, you also need to make sure than you eliminate any rattling from the trunk. After many different small modifications, my trunk was almost rattle free, but on harsh bumps would still make noises, until I tried adding ¼” clear tubing inside the weather strip of the trunk. Was not easy to do, and I had to do it by halves, half to the right and half to the left. Also adding the soft part of Velcro around the internal border of the lid, so when it closes there is no friction between plastic vs plastic. |
| Ordered F6B Light tint with vent hole. Got f6B light tint no hole. Sadly, I put it on the bike and then could not figure out what was wrong. then I realized after the bolts are snug. NO VENT! Guess we will see what they say about this... |
| This seem to be a good stem. I have over 20K miles on them with one tire. |
| You would think in this day and age of making things smaller this light could easily be 1/4 of the actual depth. Thick as a stick of butter. Due to limited space I will not be installing the light. |
| Super quick delivery and a great buy for the price! Only negative is the small clips that hold it all together! This is installed in my wife’s helmet so she’s gentle enough plugging and in plugging it! If it was in my helmet I think I would be pulling to hard on the plug! |
| This tire is a smooth running tire that seems to be made for the goldwing. It is long running tire wears evenly. Tire Pressure is the key to having a successful ride with this brand tire. Enjoy your riding on the this tire. |
| I installed these in approximately two hours. I took a little extra time to be careful but still lost a push pin during install. The bars bring the grips back at a more swept back angle about and inch to inch and half. My concern was how the cables were stretched pretty tight over the new heli bars and what potential problems may arise in the future. Also the risk of scratching your paint and control panel is very high during the install. One thing that is critical is cutting out the plastic trim piece that fits under the panel. If that is not cut correctly it is going to make your new Goldwing look fairly ragged. The product is solid and well built but I probably would not install these again for what little is gained. |
| Fit was spot on. Looks good on my 2012. Iv had good quality from Kuryakn on most of my accessories. |
| I am sure that the lights will look great, but I am very disappointed that I would have to drill holes in my in excellent condition covers that look great already. And the fact that there were no written instructions, and zinc hardware that will rust instead of stainless steel is unbelievable to me. |
| I installed these in about 45 minutes. Probably one of the best ad on's for new Goldwing I bought. My wife loves them and the way they incorporated the Big Ass drink holder into the arm rests was better than any others I've seen. Would highly recommend this product. |
| Best tool in your garage. They are a must buy item. Don't take your wing to a mechanic, DIY. |
| Very good job of controlling the air on your lower legs. Easy to install and look nice. |
