I purchased these to lower my bars and they work great. I mounted them with the high side towards the front of the bike. The bike feels much more "sporty" and the position aids handling in corners. I am 5'11" and they allow my arms to go straight out and are more comfortable for me creating ever so little lean forward. I removed the black upper tree cover and left it off. I like seeing the triple clamps and tops of fork tubes. PS I purchased some blakc plastic hole plugs at Lowes to cover the bold holes for the handlebars and they fit and look great! |
| Installed prior to a 2700 mile road trip and I have to say that this is a GREAT upgrade in the front suspension. My wing feels more stable in turns and no more nose dives on hard braking. Very nice product. |
| I installed the Dyna Beads for the first time on a new set of tires before leaving on a 2700 mile road trip and all I can say is: I will never use wheel weights again! My wing has never felt so smooth and no more low speed wobble when coming to a stop. I put 2 oz. in front and 3 oz. in rear. After my return, I closely inspected the tires and see no early evidence of cupping what so ever. I am sold on these beads!! |
| This is a must have! Greatly improves fork action on stock or any level of modified forks. I have had it on my 2002 GL1800 in stock highly modified and now with Progressive Monotube kit and it allows the forks to work much better. The anti-dive was a Honda attempt to correct for the WAY too soft stock springs and lack of dampening in the fork. Yes fork, since there is only dampening in the left side in stock trim. |

Let me start by saying that I have over 40 years of riding, racing and building experience on over 30 motorcycles. This is about a 3-4 hour job if you are proficient with tools and your Goldwing. Be sure and put new oil in BEFORE mount back on the motorcyle!!! I had Progressive springs, 10 wt oil, fork brace with anti-dive shim in place and was pretty happy with the front suspension. Having put in the Monotube Cartridge kit now for a month I give it a thumbs up as an improvement. Consistent dampening with correct sag. The ONLY area that these are NOT better is over very small sharp edged bumps. They are not terrible, but not as smooth. I am happy over all with the improvement. DO NOT put in 2 preload shims. As a matter of fact, if I did not have to completely disassemble forks again, I would try it with no shim to see if theat helps the small bump issue. PS I dropped forks in tubes 1/2 inch for quicker handling with less initial sag and dive. |
| This battery is AWESOME! No matter which model you get you will not be disappointed. I got the largest. It has enough cold cranking amps to turn over most cars! It cranks my 2002 GL1800 like crazy. It comes with many pieces of very good adhesive foam pieices for fitment. The large one requires 1/4 inch foam on each side and then is a direct boltin. DO NOT FORGET to look at the instruction pictures and to connect the bar that enables the battery to function!!!! |
| Good for the price! They are a snug fit. You need to cram in the corners and then they are fine. |
| Looks good. Be careful snipping out the fog light covers... Also, recommend installing inner most screws first working out to the two on the bottom of each side and then finally the push pins. |

Of all the accessories I purchased for my Wing, this is the one that I think is the wisest investment but has me left ‘undecided’ after installing it a week ago and riding 2,200Kms already. I bought one because my mate has a TPMS fitted as standard to his Kawasaki GTR1400 and it alerted him to falling tyre pressure because of a puncture. At the time we were riding through the countryside at circa 120Kmph so it was a good thing to be warned early. I fitted the Tiregard to my Wing and am still getting used to it. It doesn’t work like the factory fitted GTR unit as the readouts are fairly inconsistent. The safest reading is the one taken first thing in the morning, when the tyres are cold, and provided, the bike is not sitting in the sunlight. At the moment, I’m setting the high pressure warnings very high at 55+ because sunlight and riding causes it to alarm when there is nothing wrong. I’m basically using it now to alarm me if the tyre pressure drops. So, the jury is out at the moment but I reckon, for a few hundred dollars, if it warns me of a puncture it’s probably saving me in more than one way. If anything changes I’ll post and update. PM me if you have any tips or want more info. |

Great product and one of those things that looks to be worth far more than was paid for it. Looks particularly fantastic on my black 2012 Goldwing. No problems fitting it, just needed a little patience and a steady hand to remove the blanking plates because my Wing has fog lights. One word of caution though, the edges are sharper than the OEM cowl so mind your hands when fitting and cleaning. Just need more chrome now !!!! |
| I have had this flagpole for about 2 years and have had great service with it. I think most of the problems people are having with it is very easy to correct simply by using just a little blue locktite on the pole screw and mount. The only problem i had was it is a little tricky to get adjusted correctly when first mounting it. I really like the looks and folddown part. Would definately buy again! |
