OK, First, my review. I love them! They work great, very high quality and look amazing on the bike. Install was a bit challenging but not impossible. Very Important!!! I installed mine on an F6B, What I didn't know before I bought this kit is that the F6B has different turn signal connectors at the mirror than a standard Goldwing has. Unfortunately Show Chrome's solution to this issue is a sentence in the instructions that reads... If you have an F6B... cut the connectors and splice into the existing cable/s. What? No adapter? WTF!!!! Well, if you ever tried soldering and shrink tubing 3 wires together 6 times with 2 inches of cable slack by yourself... you'll know where I'm coming from on this. Couple that with the fact that they only tell you which wires are Ground, Signal and Running Light on their supplied cable and completely skip over which wires on the bike they need to connect to. Super frustrating to say the least and many head shakes with expletives were yelled during this process. I did get through it though and sadly... I found a solution after all the soldering and bitching. The solution is to buy an adapter from their competitor, Add On Accessories. Navigate over to the Pathfinder Running lights and add their "Pathfinder Adapter Plug Harness for G18DTS/G18DTC/G18RFL F6B 2013-2016" to your purchase. With the adapter it truly will be plug and play for your F6B. Overall I really like this kit, just wish I would have known about the lack of an adapter beforehand. Hope this helps. |

1. I see they've fixed the instructions, but on my set of front and rears, they had the instructions reversed for identifying the color of the OEM running and turn wires. This caused me an unbelievable amount of time trying to figure out what I was doing wrong until I tried reversing wires. It's obviously they never gate a prototype to someone not involved with the project for a test install. Pretty unforgivable. 2. The spade connectors they provide make a lousy connection to the OEM wires. The wires are just to thin for the use of these things. I'd suggest positaps or something else. Besides tearing my hair out because of the bad instructions, I had to remove all 12 spade connectors and wire twist heat shrink everything. 3. The blinking function is barely noticeable. |
| Although these are on the pricey side they are well made and have an indefinite amount of adjustment. They could do a better job of marking the parts left or right but overall went on good and look good on the bike |

ok not sure why this is the second one to die each lasted maybe year, they really need to fix this issue wish I knew some how to get Küryakyn to listen apparently I am not only one like I said looks great and works great till it dies bot of mine have been led on left side |
| I just bought this new Ciro phone holder and I will admit that it's a nicely made holder HOWEVER the mounting screws DO NOT FIT Goldwing, I have an '06 Goldwing and a '16 Goldwing F6B, the screw threads fit neither one. I hope to get a refund and get one that is for a Goldwing. |

I’ve been looking for a travel bag that works for my new Tour Manual. I previously used an Ultraguard rack mounted bag on my OldWings. I opted for no trunk rack this time because I thought it looked ugly and was too shallow for the Ultragaurd. Also, the Ultraguard is too large to mount behind the backrest. I hesitated for a long time on the Vagabond, wondering if it would fit behind my Honda backrest. The other issue was if it could be secured without modification to my passenger grab rails. I really didn’t want to purchase and then return due to fitment issues. I was at Daytona and stopped by Kury’s tent and tried it on for size. Success! It fits perfectly, and with a bit of ingenuity it secures well. They provide many types of straps, and the attach/detach procedure is very simple and secure without modification to the bike. I could have saved $30 purchasing thru Wingstuff, but “Gotta have it now†bit me hard. It worked perfectly for the 200 mile ride home. Highly recommend. |
| Standard Windshield: Ever easy to install this windshield if you are some what mechanically handy. Was able to move over the vent with no problem; but, I will post that I had to use a jeweler's screwdriver to manipulate the tabs to separate the two sides of the vent. And an again with the jeweler's screwdriver to put them back together. This maybe have added total of one minute labor time to the 5 minutes to mover the vent over. Lets see; $70 for them to install a new or six minutes of labor to move the old one over? The old vent looks nice right where it is. |
| On my second set, just shy of 20,000 on rear, 26,000 front. Running 42psi rear and 41psi front. Only negative is front tire likes to track rain groves/cuts on freeways. |
| Like always, the more warning, light you can put out at night (and day) the better. |

I love being able to slide these in when not in use, slick look to them. However, I did have them pulled out after washing the bike and when trying to centerstand the bike she fell over. The highway peg snapped off the valve cover it was bolted to and oil came pouring out like a homicide scene. So, getting $2k of repairs done and she will be good as new. But...NEVER keep the pegs out when parking is my suggestion. |
| On the first try I lit up the VIN numbers but not the switches. On the second try I got a bad reflection in my V-Stream windshield and a little back light on the switches. Third try I put aluminum foil tape all over the area under the switches and around the keyswitch then put the LEDs on the tabs under the heater controls. Now it lights up the like I expected it to. |
| I've used these on my Wing and F6. Excellent wet pavement performance. |
