| The triangular bracket broke fairly quickly for me as well. So I used it as a pattern and made a new bracket out of 1/8" aluminum plate. Very ridgid now! |

Having knee issues, I wanted to have a way to better support the bike when my passenger gets on and off. This Ride Off stand does just that. Plus's: When stopped at the end of the ride, I can use the bikes reverse to set the bike up on the stand, with both of us on board. I can also simply ride off, again when we're both on board. Installation is easy as long as you know the right ride fastener is reverse thread. With no one on board and putting the bike up on this stand like the original, you have to be show and careful. The bike will go up on the stand real quick and easy! I mean really easy! This is not the OEM or original stand. One must be prepared for that. Some things I cannot do with this stand is rotate the rear tire to check the tread for nails when it's up on this stand. I can also not rotate the front tire, sliding it on it's tread surface, like I could do on the OEM center stand. A block of plywood can be used under this stand's feet to raise the rear tire off the ground along with the suspension height adjustment at zero. However even with a 3/4 inch thick piece of plywood, the rear tire still touched the concrete floor. Also with this stand up on a board, it will take 2 people to rock the bike off the "ride off" center stand. The pressure on the rear tire will not allow one to ride off if the stand is engaged with wood. There is just not enough traction. So my point is that in order to rotate the tires, a motorcycle jack is the best bet. One can always check tires or get the valve stem in filling position by rolling the bike on the ground. That's the standard with bikes that have only a side stand. This ride off stand is a great choice for my knee situation. It is vary stable to board the bike. No reduced lean clearance like a Landing-Gear system or trike converting zero lean. And under $200.... worth the differences and feature over the OEM center stand. Corventure Dave |

I went for a short ride after installing this, they hold up exceptionally well. The Wing feels more planted. I did install the MBL Accessories bar also. The combination has really helped me in getting a comfortable feel from the front end. |
| These are exactly what I was looking for. Right size and comfortable. Install was easy. I just sprayed quick detailer and it slid like a charm. |
| First off I've had this Fender Extension on for the past 9 years. To make this work without breaking it. Forget using those supplied attachment strips. Instead purchase some abs Pipe Glue that Plumbers use to seal pipes. I applied a liberal amount on the extension and on the underside of the fender then clamped it in place until dry. I've done one repost to the attachment area in the 9 years that the extension's been attached. |

I purchased the Deluxe Bushtec v2 ball hitch for my 2012 GL1800 and am very satisfied with the product except that a chrome steel ball was substituted for the advertised stainless hitch ball without notice. Bushtec said they had not recently offered a stainless ball with the deluxe ball kit and Wingstuff said in response to my concern on Sep 12, 2018: "Dear Sir, Apologize for the misprint on our site. The info there was taken from Bushtec site years ago. There are no stainless steel balls available. The chrome one is fine as that's what comes with all other hitches. Feel free to take your trip and I will e-mail our site person about changing the description on the product." There was no offer of a credit or other treatment and the site still says a stainless ball is included. Beware! |
| I love the size of this cup holder. I drove from Miami to Sturgis SD. 2200 miles one way. A 32oz drink fits perfectly so I fill the cup all the way up with ice and drink and after I finish the drink I can suck on the ice.I don't know why so many have broken in other reviews because the plastic mount is very thick. The only thing I can recommend is don't tighten to much its only a cup holder. |
| I have been running the Sylvania Silver Star Ultra. They are much better than the standard, but these LED lights blew them away at a fraction of the current. No noise in headset or speakers, and much brighter. The only downside is that now I want to replace the high beam bulbs! This is a must buy! |

Ok... so after talking to Kuryakyn, they authorized Wingstuff to send me a new set upon condition I return the old ones. Fair enough. Going back to box them up, I grabbed one of the non-broken screws and tried just screwing them into the shell pieces while holding them in my hand. Out of 12 screw holes, the screw would only go into 3 of them. 3. So I was like, "Ok... what the $!#$!"??? Took a really close look and the black coating was so thick that it was encroaching into the screw openings where the threads are. I don't mean random flakes and chunks that you could get out with a toothpick or by blowing on it, I mean the holes were too small for the screw to go into to even reach the threads. This also speaks rather poorly for the quality of the screws (haha) that just trying to twist them through the black coating snaps the heads off and leaves a chunk down in the threads. But whatever... I'm getting a new set, and I'm already out the $100+ with shipping, so I'll give them another shot. I definitely won't be using their screws, and I'm not sure what to do if the new set also has the same issue with the black coating. Get out a sewing needle and a miniature hammer and try to chisel it away? I have a drimel but no attachment remotely small enough to cut it away. These holes are SMALL, so I guess I'll just cross my fingers the new set doesn't have this issue. |

Was putting them on a 2018 Goldwing. I watched all the videos, read all the reviews, so I had a good idea what to expect. I cleaned out the holes, used zip-ties to squeeze them together, made sure the tabs engaged etc. etc. Got the first grip on, the metal shell over it, all the rubber pulled up through the holes, made sure all the holes lined up and gingerly put in the first 2 screws finger-tight. So far so good. Then went to do the end cap, verified the holes still lined up, and gingerly went to put in a screw. It met a slight bit of resistance so I took it back out and re-verified the holes lined up. Tried again and same thing. So I applied a little more pressure and the head broke off. I thought "Damn! Well, I can live with 3 since these look so cool." And..... tried a different hole and exact same thing happened. We're talking very little resistance and no, I wasn't cross-threading them or anything. Come on... how are they supposed to go in, by wishing? Absolutely ridiculous. So that was that, I immediately pulled it back off and basically lit $91 on fire because Wingstuff won't take it back unless it's still in unopened packaging. Obviously some people DO get these on without a hitch, but trust your instincts when you see so many people saying they had problems. These are simply not ready for prime-time in their manufacturing, too many variables and beyond cheap/shoddy screws and pre-drilling. You *might* get a well-made set, but then again... you might get mine. |
| I bought these at WD40 because they were including the wiring kit free of charge. The horns was a direct replacement for the OEM horns on my 2012. However, the OEM horn bracket on the right side of the bike did not allow me to access the bracket nut due to there not being enough clearance between it and the header pipe, so I simply removed the horn from the OEM bracket and reused it to mount the new horn. The left side had no such problem, so I replaced the OEM horn and bracket with the supplied new bracket. Other than that, the instructions were straight forward. These horns are LOUD! |
| I happened onto this product by accident as the vendor was out of a similar product from a different manufacture.This is a top quality product using top quality parts. I was considering replacing my handlebars to alleviate the discomfort in my neck and shoulders I would experience on long rides, so i bought the standard kit that would raise, move the bars towards me and most importantly, move the grips in. This product nailed it while saving me HUNDREDS of dollars over new bars! It requires you to cut the triple tree plastic cover (as do all similar kits), but they include bolt head covers/plugs to dress up and provide protection against the elements. I think anyone who typically are not afraid to work on their Wing can install these in about 2-hours. This kit has changed my ergonomic fit on my bike (6',2") where i can now enjoy pain free riding. It even created better legroom too. |
