I installed my 1st F4 on my 2004 in 2010. I was VERY careful cleaning it. Never used a spray cleaner (instructions said propellents held contaminants). Used a clean tight weave terry cloth towel with the edges cut off so no seams to scratch the screen. Used a mix of alcohol (no, not whiskey, THAT was for me!) and water. It scratched horribly to the point all I focused on was all the fine scratches. I gave the item a very poor rating. Out of the blue, in January of 2013, the F4 sales manager e-mailed me. He was concerned, and we ended up talking on the phone. He believed my problem, and felt I may have had a faulty screen. Since it had been a few years, it was not under warranty, but he stood by the product, and allowed me to buy a new one at a VERY discounted cost, a bit lower than a stock Honda screen. He also told me not to use a cloth towel, but to use paper toweling. AND, to use fingernail polish remover occasionally to strip the screen to factory. I promised to return the bad one. As it happens, I backed over the old one (I had laid it behind my car...DUH!) and shattered it. So it went into the garbage can. Now, as to the new one. After two full years, I am VERY happy with the new F4. It has one 1" hairline scratch that was my fault. I now have the perfect way to clean the screen. In a hand spray bottle, mix a few ounces of fingernail polish, some alcohol, and then fill with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2...basically water but it dissolves bug bits in a heartbeat). I let the spray sit for a bit, and softly wipe clean with paper toweling. The a dry paper towel to clean off residue. I use a clean tight weave terry cloth to buff it until slick. Every few cleanings, I lightly spray Nexus on a paper towel and lightly run it over the screen, and use the tight weave terry cloth (oh, and never use fabric softener when washing), to softly buff. Works like a freaking charm. Amazingly clear and the screen is slick and sheds water like a frog's butt. And once a month, I wet a paper towel with fingernail polish, and strip the screen. I have absolutely zero scratches after 2 years, I mean ZERO, and 100% total clarity Sorry this was so long, but I wanted pass on F4 cleaning that has worked for me. I also want to say, a big thank you to F4 for standing behind their product. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is, well, it is very expensive, otherwise I would give it a 5. |
| Added these about a year ago. Very comfortable and adds to the look. Easy to install. |
| Got these a while back. Easy to install and adds to the look. |
| Ordered a set of these to have on hand in the event of a fuse failure. I run lots of add-on accessories which are tied into the electrical system. Having spare fuses available can quickly keep me rolling should the need for replacement arise. This fuse kit is somewhat overpriced, thus I'm giving them only 3 Stars. |
| Having control of the airflow beneath the mirrors is a plus. These adjustable wings truly get the job done. They are functional, firmly designed, and the dark smoke finish makes them go well with any color of the Goldwings. They are simple to install and stay in place when adjusted. Easy to clean as well. |
| I had his piece on my bike since 2012. Since then I've ridden from S.C to San Antonio. San Antonio to California; and San Antonio to Florida. Very little damage, still has a new shine, and a whole lot of compliments. It really shows off the front of the bike. |
| Nice to have a choice of airflow or no flow. Nice fit with appropriate windshields. I added the front chrome trim and it looks immaculate. |
| These really give the mirror housings that fast action look that they deserve. These were already on my Wing when I purchased it and I will assume that they have a few years on them. The chrome is starting to show some fading if observed up close as when polishing. I plan to replace the entire housings with the all chrome housings. |
| In my opinion, these should come standard on all GL1800's. They add so much Pop to the sides of the fairings. I've added the Predator Accents to mine for a more ferocious look. |
| These chrome trim pieces bring lots of presence to the outer edge of the mirror housings. I have had these for several years now and they are starting to develope tiny feather scratches on the top edge. Too minimal to complain after the number of years that they maintained an unblemished appearance. |
| Very nice dress up for an otherwise less than noticeable spot on the handlebars. Neatly shaped and they snap right into the heads of the stock screws. Well priced too! |
| Just replaced the stock spring with this identically designed chrome spring. A much improved appearance for the side kickstand. Simple to install with a pair of vice-grips and a thick screwdriver for leverage. Obviously put your Wing up on the center stand before installing. Very nice price. |
