| These grip covers are great, used silicon spray to get them on...no problems. Very comfortable. |
| Product quality is high. It is a very sturdy and strong hitch attaching to the frame or sub-frame in 6 different locations. Comparing the other hitches, I would say this was the best of the best but you're going to pay for it. My only criticisms: terrible instructions lacking any pictures making it difficult to follow. Fortunately, there are several web sites put up by gracious persons guiding the install process with clarity and pictures. Also, installation was difficult during certain steps especially with my big paws. Fastening the right "hoop" to the frame just forward of the drive line was extremely difficult and took the greatest amount of time. I seriously thought I would have to remove the rear tire as I couldn't reach the attachment point from the rear (my arm wouldn't fit)or from underneath the bike other than just touching the bolt - no room for movement. I could reach the bolt to attach the nut from the side cover/saddlebag guard area but I couldn't rotate the nut to get it started (lack of movement space for my hand). Finally solved it by crawling under the bike (it was on a lift)holding the nut in place from below and reaching around with my other arm and rotating the nut from the side cover area. Finally got the nut started! Then the next crisis - none of the tools I had would reach/fit the area, even my smallest socket drive. My solution was to go down to my local hardware store and purchase a very long handled 1/2" open end wrench. With the right muffler lowered as per instructions (be careful here as to not force the pipe too much as you can end up bending the chrome muffler guard), I was able to access the nut from underneath with the long open end wrench from under the bike and tightened her up. The left side was a cinch with no obstructions in the way. @Stephen - only with a little luck and lots of effort was I able to attach the hoop to the frame on the right side without removing the rear tire. With the amount of time and effort I spent on it, removal of the rear tire might have been easier. Other than that installation was relatively straight forward and without difficulty. The end product was worth the effort. Took my Bushtec trailer out for a test spin and other than seeing the trailer in my mirrors, I wouldn't have known it was there. |

Hooked up by going behind key switch with strap then hooking to map pouch. I then inserted flaps under gas tank door. Worked well holding my directions. |
| Good Quality bags for the money. Keeps the saddlebags nice & tidy. |
| The Bomb! |
| Since last review I put a new front tire on my bike, Roadsmith trike kit, Raked front end including Tapered Bearings, dyna beads in tire and I have NO wobble anymore. |
|
The beads seem to work just as described. I installed them in a 2009 Goldwing/Roadsmith Trike. I put 2 ounces in the front tire and 3 ounces in the rear tires. |

Nice quality flag. Remember they state "moderate speed". I don't think that means miles of interstate sppeds. |
|
I ran a beaded seat cover for years on previous bikes. So I knew how they worked.....Which is great! Gets rid of the sweaty, soggy butt syndrome. This fits well on the Goldwing seat. |

Thanks to DJFIRE for recommending a Metzler rear and Bridgestone G709 front. The bike feels ultra stable and grips the road with tenacity even from COLD. This will be my setup from now on! PM me for my tire pressures (thanks again DJ!!!) 5 stars +++ |
| Another product i bought so my wife will be happy & comfy on every journey. AND SHE IS! So, 5 stars for a product that makes every mile an enjoyable one... |

I replaced my old, battered, non vented version with this vented version. These belly pans definitely protect the underneath of the bike (proof being when i removed the old one!!!) and in my opinion is a "must have" accessory. I don't feel any difference from the old version nor do i feel any better in cross winds. However i do feel an added sense of security knowing that these pans can take a fair amount of pings & dings before any damage occurs to my 'wing. |
