After I received these lights, I installed them exactly as indicated in the instructions. Rode for several months, apparently never after dark, until last night. After starting the bike in dead darkness (took me a minute to find the key hole, but that's a different story), I turned into the street and was immediately startled by what appeared to be a set of headlights immediately in front of me. Turns out, I was looking at the (very bright) reflection of the dash lights in my (Show chrome) windshield. The remained of the 30 minute ride was miserable, having to hold my head at angle off to the side to avoid the glare in the windshield. After I got home, I looked at the four previous reviews for these dash lights, and low and behold, one reviewer noted the same issue with an aftermarket windshield. For the record, the reflections are from the light that shines up between the buttons, not from around the thumb wheels. If the LED lights were mounted facing towards the rear (thumb wheels) instead of upwards (between the buttons), this might resolve the problem. |
| This is my second f4,The first one was full of pits after second season and no pits on bike,called f4,no response...I still believed in this windshield due to a monster bird strike at 70 mph,I think this thing saved my life,and zero damage to shield or myself.It hit so hard that I changed lanes but I was still able to stay up.(I think I may have peed a little).The plus 4 is thicker and I believe that is why it didn't break...I replaced it with another +4 only in tint this time,looks great on black cherry bike.It is too dark for me at nite though and I should have gone back to clear...I do not know why the first one pitted so badly and I hope this one will not,But for safety sake this is THE one to get.Too expensive? What is your bike and life worth? Greatly reduced wind on passenger as well..Try one and if you ride in the mountains at nite,go clear.. |

Revision to my review (see above) 4-13-2017 Good Job and a warm THANK YOU to Rodney Enriquez with Wingstuff.com and Brandon Westphal with Big Bike Parts Inc. They both took time from there busy schedule on several occasions to call me and discuss this situation. At Brandon’s request I emailed him some pictures of the area. Based on those pictures he felt this appeared to be a warrant-able item and the return process was started. By the end of the day the issue was resolved. I received an RMA from Wingstuff and Big Bike Parts. I had another new piece on its way to me and within a very short time after returning the old piece for inspection I received notification of a credit issued to my account. Thanks guys for the follow up and the follow through. You both deserve a raise. Dave Borel |
| I give 5 stars for the wings and I give 2 stars for the clamping devices. Doesn't tighten up completely, mounting always loose. |

I finally purchased these mini floorboards after looking at them and reading the reviews that other folks have posted for about a year. Thank you to all for your reviews. The mini floorboards were easy to install on my 2006 Goldwing. However, the spring did not work properly the first attempt because I did not get the back side of spring inserted in the small hole on the frame of my Wing. When I started out on my first ride with my mini floorboards it felt a little stange. However, I quickly became accustomed to a new level of comfort for me. No more boot toe scape when enjoying riding sweepers and smilers. One recommendation for an improvement is to add some replaceable skid wear plates on the outside edges of the mini floorboards, Please. Still give them 5 stars because they work well for this Ole geezer. Fiddlefoot |

Late summer 2015 on the way down south to LA on I-5 in order to catch the coastal Highway 1 (what a ride), my right fork cartridge had developed a leak. Everything up front had fork fluid all over it, including front brake rotors. On top of that my pre-load on the rear shock was stuck at 0. Wife and I made it back home to Washington state safe(not a comfortable ride, but fun anyway!). When we got back I replaced the the rear shock motor (a friend had an extra), and purchased from Wingstuff the Progressive spring, Progressive mono cartridges, and the Stone G702 70R16. The first thing that I needed to do was go out to Ebay in order to purchase another side stand for the Wing. The old side stand was to short. I took the newly purchased side stand down to the local fab shop in order to add 3/4 of an inch. With the changes the Progressive rear spring, the Progressive front Cartridge forks, and the rear tire I gained a significant amount of lean angle before I start dragging pegs (I very seldom drag now). While all these changes were pretty drastic, may not recommend for everyone, but for me...I would not change a thing on "Large Marge the Party Barge". Like they say if you have the OEM forks and have never tried the Progressive Cartridges, you'll never know what you are missing. I still do recommend, as an upgrade. |

More lights might help with being seen and these are just great. I ordered them the first day I saw them and waited a couple of months to get them. Putz that I am, I ended up with the wrong switch which Wingstuff staff quickly replaced. Just had the shop install them. Bright white running lights, yellow directional, and fog lights that certain are BRIGHT! Good job Big Bike. Better than the video. ~john 2012 Wingstuff Wing! |

This is my second set of the Adjustable Passenger pegs. we had them on our 06 Gold Wing and my wife really like them. We replaced our Gold Wing With a Gold Wing with a CSC trike kit. The Rest will not fold back with out hitting the Fenders. To leave them in the Forward Position you have to remove them to take the side cover off. They should have more than a 4 stars as my wife loved them and we had the Frist set for about 8 year and they held up very well. They just will not work with the trike. Looks like we will selling these and looking for some that will work with the trike. |
| Bought this last fall looked great. Pulled the bike out of storage just now and the chrome has what looks like cracks but it's the chrome separating from the plastic in long thin lines. Not happy at all. |

I got this fender extender a few years ago. So far no problems. Last year I did a major front fork overhaul and removed the fender of course. I cleaned the lower front fender and then put silicone seal to seal the gap between the inside of the fender and this extender. Then, to provide more front protection, I got an inner tube (heavy/thick) from an ATV tire. Cut a piece to make an additional extension that is of course totally flexible. Now the front of my GW and the lower cowl are much cleaner and less debris makes its way there. It is a great fender extender and the chrome hasn't faded or deteriorated at all. Looks great on the GW. |
| I replaced my Elite 3 tire on 5/19/16, with the new E4. I had gotten a little over 18,000 miles out of the E3. On 12/22/16, I replaced the E4 tire once again having gotten 23,281 miles out of it. It is notable to keep in mind that I was pulling my Quick camp trailer at least 65% of those miles! The traction on both are dry and wet pavement was fantastic! Dunlop has definitely made a significant improvement in both mileage and traction. I have not yet run the E4 for the front. I will be doing that shortly as the E3 I have on there now has over 31,000 miles on it! I will definitely be posting a review on that tire as well! |
| the leftside 8mm allen head bolt got rounded out. Could NOT remove it...the right side 14mm nut was VERY VERY difficult to remove..That being said the CRS stand is useless to me now... GREAT idea but, NOT an easy install.. |
