| I just received this rack system to install on my 05 and I am having to make some modifications to the hitch. The instructions call for on years 06 and later to cut a bit of a tab on the backside of the fender, which I had to do on my 05. No bid deal. But following those instructions, the fender still did not fit back on and was hitting part of the hitch. I had to grind off about 1/4 of steel from the upward part of the bracket by the u-bolts. I see that this hitch is back ordered now and the current picture looks different than what I received. Is this the reason? I don't know. Other than a little modifying, the hitch and 11 X 17 cooler rack that I also bought is made well and is a great design. Time will tell. I just wish it was a "plug and play". |
| Please see my previous review. I contacted Wingstuff and talked to the manager, Rodney, and his primary concern was to make certain I was taken care of. Wingstuff immediately sent me a new voltmeter as well as the new wiring harness. I returned to the dealer who had originally installed the voltmeter and the voltmeter and back light are now working fine. The dealer, Champion Powersports completed the additional installation at no charge. Thanks to all. I would suggest that special comments be made relative to the installation of this unit on 2010 Goldwings. |
| Just installed these. Rode 2K miles to and from Daytona, Beach. Big help with wind management. They work! Was able to manage wind as needed. Installation pretty straight forward. Few small parts to be careful with. Extra screws, washers would be nice. The only thing i'm not to crazy about is the screw ins to the clips on fairing. If your factory clip connectors are worn like mine, then this connection gonna be little loose too. They held on for 2K mikes so I'll replace clips on bike and re-install. I purchased the mirror deflectors too. They are great |

| Looks nice. However they should not have put rubber on the bottom. It is wearing a hole in the toe of my boot. |

We had used the Pakit Rak on our trip from Tampa out to Yellowstone and back in '09, and it was REALLY easy to pack and use. When we got the new Wing last year and planned on going to Glacier, this was a must again. We bought a lock so that the tray is locked onto the hitch--somewhat difficult to get it on, but it is a key lock and is secure. When the case is in the tray, you are unable to fully see the license plate. We had to drill holes into the tray to move the license plate onto the outside edge so that it could be seen---wish they would have done this at their factory, and wired a plug and play for a lighted plate holder. This new bag is made out of nicer material, and held its shape better that the one we bought back in '09. The zippers seem to be of better quality also. The first bag's waterproof cover came off in Salt Lake City---we turned around and got it--the elastic at the edges had broken. We used a bungee net to hold it in place for the rest of the trip. Called Dixon "Y" Machine (Company) and told them what happened. A new one was in the mail for delivery the next week. We are now planning the trip up to Seattle and on to Anchorage, and this Pakit Rak with be what our clothing goes into. Love having this behind us instead of a trailer. |
| I tried these drill holes and all,but my trunk was all ready chaffed and once installed made the trunk lid sit up higher and you could see the chaffing from the side. Now I got to go buy some plugs for the holes. They made the gaps between lid and trunk look terrible. |
| OK in a pinch - if you want liquid to leak on you during the ride while the cup rotates slightly to the left or right. I've had this product for about a year now. Always carried the cup in my trunk until needed. The cup holder looks good but it mounts too close to the left high accessory switch panel, making it impossible to tighten down the cup holder "tilt" unless the holder is dismounted. Additionally, the cup doesn't insulate worth a crap, and it leaks due to a bad seal. Always has. My solution was to accept the inability to tighten down the mount's oscillation and I purchased a Thermos SIP cup will does not leak. Better yet, the SIP mug maintains hot and cold liquids for many, many hours. I would not buy this drink holder again.... |
| Ordered online, tires delivered in six days, Checked the date code, they are dated 0115 Front and 1015 Rear, which makes me extremely happy with this purchase. Now to uncover the bike and get them installed. |
| Easy install. I installed mine on the left to keep my throttle hand free. I also replaced the straw with a Camel Pack tube so I can drink without my hands leaving the handle bars. |
| These look as good as they feel. Install was quite a squeeze. |
| I followed the video and found the install easy. With only 50K on my 2012 I did not realize these would make such an improvement. |
