I just bought a 2003 GW and know that I must buy new tires. I'm excited about the prospect of using a car tire on the rear. I'm wanting to use a Kumho, as someone suggested and think I found the right one (Ecsta SPT KU 31, size 195/55/R16). Can anyone confirm that this is the right size for a GW? Thank you! Darrell |

Ah. Some difference we got here. The bike stops on a dime now. Making bike ready for a vacation trip and wanted to make sure brakes are all serviced. I purchased the bike a couple of years ago, used. Decided it was time. These set of 3 brake pads made a difference. When I have my woman back there and brake really hard, I experience one of my favorite sensations. :-) I noticed upon replacement, the old ones was aftermarket pads. These OEMs are so much sharper. I did cycle brake fluid too at the same time. That in combination I believe is a key thing. Also: Took wheels off. Took calipers off. Just to be able to pressure wash the calipers from inside out. No corrosion found, only a lot of sot or dirt, so looked like grand spanking new brake calipers after this clean-out. Installed back with new brake pads. (You don't need to perform all these steps. You can actually just remove the pin that holds the pads, pry back the calipers carefully with a hard nylon flat rod between pads and disc, remove the pads and install the new pads). |
| we got this Extention to help protect our chrome lower cowl. Very easy install. The directions tell you to be careful not to drill through and hit your tire. We put a peice of wood behind the fender, that help easethe stress of drilling the tire. looks great and stops alot of chips to the body work. |
| My Wife and I had these bought and put on at the dealers. My Wife loves them. Very nice chrome work and very strong consuction. After seeing them on wing stuff we found we paid a little more then we should of. Sorry Wing Stuff We all live and learn. |

Had some issue with removing the old mounting hardware. All in all, though, a great rear end add-on. |
| As the paint had worn off the original ends, these are a nice replacement. |

No installation issues. Watched on-line video and installed this and several other items in one evening. Great product. |
| YEA FIVE STARS ,I PURCHASED THIS ITEM A WHILE BACK, I PUT IT IN THE RIGHT SIDE FAIRING POCKET,ITS JUST AS GOOD AS THE OTHER POWER PLUGS- DOES WHAT IT SAYS & THE PRICE IS GREAT SO I'LL GET ANOTHER FOR THE LEFT SIDE- IT JUST CAN'T BE BEAT- THE PRICE & THE PRODUCT !!! SO YEA GO GET SOME !!! |

Neat little product, doesn't look weird hanging off the side of the bike either...it has a classy look to it. I mounted mine on the bolt closest to the front of the bike. It's lower, but it doesn't interfere with the opening or closing of the saddle bag. It's far enough back that the passengers foot doesn't catch it while they're getting on the bike. The drink holder has tough rubber fingers protruding through the top so it will hold a drink nice and tight. About the easiest thing I've installed on my bike so far. Should fit just about any GL1800. Mine is a 2012, so for those of you who have a 2012 model, it fits perfectly. |

There is always room for improvement. The angle of the light should be directed downward a few degrees, but otherwise it is functional. Don't forget the wiring harness necessary to make this work. The harness includes a plunger switch that mounts in the left speaker box. All wiring goes from the top, above the inner trunk lid, out the back behind the passenger seat -- routes into the left speaker box, hooks up to the switch then the wiring leaves the speaker box and should be bundled with the cables running around the left hinge. I found that the hole locations were already stamped out on the back, so it was just a matter of drilling three holes (two for the screws and one for the wire) and mounting the light. It's not difficult to install, just time consuming. It took me about an hour from start to finish, maybe less -- I wasn't watching the clock. I'm giving it 4 stars because it was a pain and the light could be directed better. Now all I have to do is throw a Bazooka sub in the trunk and block the light entirely... :( One thing to note: There is a diode on the light assembly. Reversing polarity will only cause it not to light. If this happens, reverse the connections. |
| Nice addition to my 2012 Gold Wing, really looks nice on a black bike. If you have Kuryakyn Skinni Mini LED's installed on the headlight lens, you might have to remove them...I haven't gotten that far with wiring LED's in just yet, but the tabs that fold into the headlight lens might interfere. |
