This is a great modification to an otherwise crummy suspension. I started out with replacing this hose as my winter project. Then I decided to for for replacing the rear spring since I was going this far. The hose is a great product, yet I give it 3 Stars for not having any instructions for its replacement. After considerable research on the internet, I came up with a decent set of procedures for the replacement and servicing of the preload. More wasted time. A GOOD set of instructions will kick this hose up to 5 stars. |

Over the winter, I decided on upgrading to a steel braided preload hose. Since I was going that deep, I went for the Progressive Spring too. This is a job for those with a fair amount of mechanical experience. Getting into the project, I found it best to get a spring compressor. Sorry WingStuff, a competitor had a better compressor. It was not worth the time and money to build my own or take the chance in modifying a cheaper one. I took my Wing out for its first ride with the Progress Spring this afternoon. The ride is beyond belief. When I got home from my maintenance ride, I told my wife to gear up. We did the course again and she too was amazed. My wife hardly felt or didn't feel many of the bumps we're accustom to, especially the curb on our driveway. The ride, one or two up, is smoother and the handling is more responsive with the Progressive. |
| Lloyd Arnold. Honda didn't make the 1500 until 1988. You wrote 1983 1500. |
| Oh and upon trying to take this system out 2 crimp connectors had the wire pull out. Very poor quality. Not happy. Wasted money getting this light. |
| I installed the Spoiler LED light assembly from Electrical Connection as per installation instructions. When I signal left the right hand amber light on the Spoiler flashes and if I signal right the left amber light flashes. What's up boys? |
| I finally got the time to install this and it all went as planned until I went to make the final connection for the Yellow and Brown wires... it turns out these both have a female "butt" connector - and the photo shows the red wire on the two harnesses having a male and female butt connectors that I assume you would separate and connect the yellow and brown leads to... well my red wire is a solid wire - no connectors - so no place to install the blinker signal. so either I got the wrong parts shipped to me or someone forgot to cut the red wire and install the mail butt connector... either way - the product does not work without cutting wires and installing two male but connectors, at least in my case. |

The mounting arm is made of plastic and has some flex and looks a little cheap. Paying for 4 chromed bolts that I'll never use. The bolts and metal mounting arm/ball should be black anodized to match the rest on the handlebar hardware. |
| I have these lights installed on a 2015 GL1800, I also have the switch back turn signals from Electrical Connection installed (don't know if one effected the other). Each time I apply the brakes the daylight running (and turn signal)lights flickers on and off. Contacted Big Bike Parts and their trying to find a solutions but no joy yet. Any help would be appreciated...... |

Thin chrome and not durable. Only a little over a year old and the brackets under the seat handle are really rusty and the chrome is peeling on the upright piece that has the pad on it. I waxed them before installing and whenever i cleaned the Wing. Really look bad for not being very old. Wife loved the functionality of them and gets really quiet at times back there but the sub par chrome is really a bummer since these armrest are still expensive for the quality. |
| I support our police but I can't bring myself to purchase an altered American flag. |
| I purchase these to do as Glenn had done. I will keep the other to give away or what ever. Adds a nice touch. Very good quality. |
| Bushtec is behind the eight ball on Honda's modifications to the 2016 F6b. (my bike) The publish date on the instructions was prior to the release of any F6b's. The diaganol risers will not clear plastic inside bike and the top holes are wrong if they did. Previous reviewer for F6b is also correct on bolt lengths. Some of the holes were drilled slightly undersized. To Bushtecs credit they are working on it. 2 Stars is for making assumptions about the fit and leaving it to the customer to prove it out solid. Also, hitch was dropped shipped from Bushtec. If I get told I am wrong eventually it will have to be because I was sent an incorrect hitch. Month behind on taking spring trip and paranoid of buying a Kuryakin as this isn't the first time I've seen the aftermarket do this. |
