| I have reached the 12K mark for my stock Bridgestone Tires. They have been ok tires, grip well in the corners, and get decent mileage out of them. But I have two complaints, 1) starting at 3K miles on the front tire, when I lean over in a turn, the tire whines, the more I lean the louder it whines. 2) The front tire has a center line down the middle of the tire, that causes the front of the Bike to wobble when riding on rain grooves on the freeway. The back tire has been good, no complaints at all, but at 12K miles, I notice the rear tire is not round, has the dreaded flat ring down the middle of the tire. I am putting my F6B into the shop this weekend, having some Dunlop Elite 3 Radials installed, which will take care of the rain groove problem. |
| I installed this into the left fairing compartment of my bike and installation was quick and easy. You do need a hole saw (check the size on the instructions), but that's as complicated as it gets. As with many other "do-it-yourself" projects on the 'Wing, Honda has made it very easy for owners to do the work. Simple installation, and it works great. |
| got it for my camping weekend at americade had no problems with the install recommend the bigger washers you do have to get longer bolts very happy with fit and finish |
| Ordered the Breakaway cruise control for my 13 F6B prior to several 500-650 mile trips. Had been looking at it for some time, just didn't want to pay the price. Finally ordered it and the install went smoothly. The product met all expectations, wish I had ordered it a long time ago. I would definitely order it all over again. Very pleased. |
| This one is easy. Took a couple of minutes to put it on. It's never come loose. I didn't need to cut, grind, force or any other such activity. I just finished a 15 day, 3500 mile trip and never had a problem with it. The only possible complain I can think of is that it stands the bike up to straight (not enough tilt) on some surfaces. This is because it slips over the exist stand. This is to bee expected. I wish Honda would have actually made a kickstand that works without alteration. How do you make an entire motorcycle so well and screw up the kickstand!! |
| Overall I like the bag. It holds a lot of stuff. It's tough except for the zippers. The waterproof cover storage area is to low on the bag and you can't get to it very well when you're trying to get the rain cover out. When it's raining on you, you try to hurry. I tried to hurry a little too much and the plastic zipper for the storage pocket broke. The construction of the bag and the rain cover would allow the rain cover compartment to be places a couple of inches higher. That would allow for quicker access. |
| Read numerous posts here about trouble installing this unit on my 2015 Goldwing. Some of the posts mentioned cutting vertical slots in the pan. For me this was not necessary; simply removed the 4 cap screws on the heat shield. You have to tug outward and downward on the back of the shield to allowing to pull outward but it definitely clears the bolts and allows you to slip the oval slots onto the bolt. Job took approximately 40 minutes. Note that sometimes the small washers behind the cap screws seem to lock it in place so give it a good tug. Definitely do not have to remove front lower cowl. Cannot speak to other model years but the 2015 was a easy install and it looks great. |

After looking at reviews of the many different brands of brake pads and reading tech/performance specs of the many different compounds, I decided to replace my OEM brake pads with OEM quality. Stick with the OEM brake pads. The engineers at Honda have already done the homework for you. These brakes perform well without grinding your disc down and without undue heat buildup. They were very easy to replace. The front brakes took 25 minutes and at 45k miles, the rear pads were only 1/2 life. I believe at least 15% of my brake pad wear came from my first trip to The Tail of the Dragon. |
| Easy to install kit comes with everything. Installation took less than 30 minutes with just one phillis head screwdriver. Pictures on my profile. |
| For those that have installed this how much of a difference will it make on a nearly new 2015? Need to lighten the jarring for my wife on some of the bumps. |
| First time trying 880's on my 1800. Third Wing (350K miles)worst mileage of ANY tire I've ever owned. 6300 miles tire was bald! Nothing wrong with the bike or tire pressure(TPMS). Trying the E4 this round or its back to the Stones. |
| Hooked up per instructions. Working aok. First ride 10 miles out blew tail light fuse. Disconnected the tail light inside the top box. Next ride Blown fuse. Had to completely remove the wiring harness from main harness and go back to stock and only use as brake light. No more blown fuse. The light harness had bare wires where the connectors and wires meet. Poor quality connectors. Will have to run wires to each tail light to get the turn and running lights to work. |
