| I'm surprised at some of the reviews of this product. I have had these pegs on 3 different GL1800s and I really like them. They are a great way to get stretched out and get some extra airflow on my legs on long and/or hot rides. They fold up and out of the way when I don't need them and they still look as good today as when I bought them. I would give them a 5 star rating except they can get in the way for some maintenance work. But even then it's a simple matter of loosening them up with an allen key. |

I don't understand the negative views for this dolly. Does it require some muscle to get the Goldwing up on it? Yes. But remember this is a 900+ motorcycle. Here's how I do it. Leave your bike on the sidestand. Roll the dolly under and then gently pull down the centre stand so you can see where the 2 points of the stand will land on the dolly. By putting the dolly under the bike from the 'passenger' side, the dolly wheels are perpendicular to the bike so the dolly won't roll. Go to the 'drivers' side of the Wing and push down with your weight on the centre stand and PULL the handle and up she goes! Practice will get it right and up in one attempt. Move the bike slowly AND KEEP THE SIDE STAND DOWN! Once I had a piece of gravel in my garage and the dolly caught it and the Wing came off the dolly & centre stand! Horrors! All I could do was push the bike to my right side and it landed on the side stand! Fortunate! When it's time to remove your Goldwing off the dolly, do NOT do it sitting on the bike! Well you CAN do it, but I used a wood wedge (door stop) to prevent the dolly from moving forward at the same time as the Wing. It is however much easier to do it this way: With the sidestand DOWN still, put your foot/toe against the dolly and then push down on the back of the Wing and then push it down in the front hard and it will fly off the dolly. I also again make sure the dolly wheels are perpendicular to the Wing so they kind of lock and the dolly doesn't roll forward. I know it has wheel locks but I can't be bothered to reach down and lock them. This well built dolly means I can easily store my luxury touring rig anywhere in the garage and makes it so easy to work on the bike. Just make sure that your garage floor is clean so you don't catch a piece of gravel/stone like I once did. Happy parking! |
| My Filter wrench has both the Oil filter end and the plug wrench on the other and/or handle end. This made changing the oil on my 2012 Goldwing the easiest I have ever done. I have two other bikes BMW and Kawasaki. These bikes take twice as long. If you have a second Generation Goldwing Get This Wrench!!! |
| The slip-ons on the GL1800 definitely sounds tougher and look great but very dissappointed. I had these slip ons installed at the Dealer when I purchased my new 2014 Goldwing. Within the first 2000 miles I noticed in the right slip-on where it gets strapped to the stock muffler a brownish discoloration. Being technical and knowing about metals, it was clearly evident that it was oxidation, which is the first phase to rust. This is not good. Furthermore, I'm dealing now with COBRA. Their warranty process is that you need to send them the pipe for their engineers to look at before they can determine a warranty repair. Get ready for a two week process. This definitely does not give me a good feeling about these pipes. If I had the opportunity, I would definitely go with the Monster SLip-Ons from Vance & Hines. |
| Gave it 5 stars. The install was very easy and they look great. Took about a half hour to install. |
| I gave this product 4 stars because of the price. A bit pricy for plastic. That being said the install was pretty simple took about an hour to install both sets. The only problem I had was the connectors they sent with the unit to connect to the bike wiring was useless. Wound up splicing the wires and sodered. They look great especially at night. |

As I have previously stated in a prior review, These do what they are intended to do, but they are not the best cure all. They WILL make your trunk very hard to close and lock, and hard to open also. Again, Do Not Waste Your Money. After having them on my trunk for a year, I removed them. Any one who makes a comment about another reviewer's opinion, is not a review that you can put any trust in. Not Worth the Money ...... better options out there. |
| Hi view from sides.In an excellent location from the visibility standpoint. Very easy install. Those that have been on rides with me since installing these have commented on how much they improve visibility. Bright running light and add to my turn signal group. Day or night I know they will be seen. I recommend if both harnesses are black at least at the end. |
| Easy and simple installation but the harness is very long it takes a place to be hidden. |
| Quick install and look great. Well worth the money. |
| The instructions arent very detailed.After some thought of where to put all wires and testing the little clip that holds everything together.You have to use the tape strips that come it to hold the cord in place.But the sound is good Made my wife happy,good replacement |
| I broke one of my 6 inch arms which were always a little uncomfortable. So it was a good time to try the 4.5 inch arms......they're perfect! (I'm 5'10"). |
