As with everythig for the Wing it's going to cost you. This is a must have product mainly because of the safety aspect - It lights up the back of the bike. I like to do my own installation and the video's that Kuryakyn has started are fantastic. They are way better than the instructions. It took me about 2 - 3 hours to complete the installation, use the video and it will save you a lot of confusion. The negative to the products ( you have to buy both trunk an saddle bags) is that the saddle bags to do not work as brake lights, the trunk does. For that reason only I give this product 4 stars. |
| Just installed, they fit real easy and look good. Will have to see how the tape holds up feel really secure right now. |
| These tires grip the road MUCH better than the original Dunlaps that came on my 09 wing. I put 16,000 miles on the Dunlaps before switching to the Bridgestones. Upon riding with the Bridgestones for the 1st time, it felt like a new bike. Felt solid/ stable on road and especially in the curves etc. Have not ridden in the rain yet but I suspect they will be A ok. The original Dunlaps made me feel like I was going to go down in the rain. I do not mind getting wet, just do not want to go down and eat pavement. I probably will not get 16,000 out of the Bridgestones because they are softer. To me that’s a better trade off (Staying upright). I bought the Bridgestones from Wingstuff dirt cheap, especially since they ran a sale with 10% coupon code a while back. They sat in my garage until I maxed the Dunlaps out down to the wear markers. |
| I saw this windshield at the Tulsa Wing Ding (09).I was very impressed by the demo. Then last year at the Wing Ding in De Moines I had the 4" one installed. On my return ride through Wyoming, I could really tell the difference in handling in the wind and rain. Best investment I've made so far. |
| Having this adds a log of comfort on long rides. Had the dealer install mine when I bought my Wing. Having to take the seat off a couple of times to install accessories, its takes two minutes to put it back on. |
| Great quality product. Looking forward to reaping the benefits other posters have described with my OEM tires. |
| Enables a clean connection to other options as in my case my GPS. Good quality product. |
| Can't beat the price compared to what it costs from a dealer. |
| Never hurts to replace it everything time you change your oil. Great price too. |

This is a well designed product! I bought the bag along with a GL1500 luggage rack for my trip on the Blue Ridge Pwy. I did 1700 miles with it. It is well constructed and works perfectly. It mounts securely and attached and detached easily from the rack. I kept my clean supplies in the side compartments and transferred the clothes I needed each night into the bag to carry in with me. The carrying strap makes it just like carrying a suitcase. The front pockets are great for water bottles and the rear pocket is perfect for all my maps. |
| 4 STARS FOR THIS ONE -LOCATION OF THE INSTALL WAS NOT QUITE AS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN-THIS IS A VERY STRATEGIC INSTALL A VERY SMALL SPACE TO PUT THIS THING WAS VERY DIFFICULT ?? INSTRUCT WAS NOT UP TO SNUFF ON THIS ONE- IF YOU DON'T DO IT EXACTLY (THE DRILLING) YOU ARE LOST FOR A PLACE TO PUT THIS THING IN THE TRUNK AREA ? GOOD PRODUCT THO- LOOKS LIKE A HONDA GINUINE PRODUCT???? FOR THE TRUNK . SO GO GET SOME- !!!!!!!! |

Jim, Whether one is a long distant, aggressive or rides only 500 miles @ year. The following is my 45+ riding years opinion. I live on the front range in Colorado and ride my ‘06 Wing year round with PGR. Yes, even with snow on the ground and 10°. The Wing has the Traxxion suspension system (worth every penny, highly recommend)! Also has ABS, Comfort package and NAV system. I log 25K - 30K @ year and am a member of the Iron But Association. I’ve ridden Wings with a “car tire” on the rear. Also have fair experience on “dirt bikes”. I note the great milage of care tires. I also note that one should have their life insurance and will in order. In a critical situation, the bike’s handling is extremely poor. Maintenance of motorcycles can be expensive. I highly recommend staying with a tire designed for motorcycles. Note Wing Stuff doesn’t offer a “car tire” for bikes nor does any other motorcycle supply company. I believe that newer Wings come with Dunlop D250 tires. I run Dunlop Elite 3 on my Wing. The D250 (had them) is ok but the Elite 3 sticks to the road and wears better. With respect to Avon, the tire wears a bit longer but on wet surface becomes more squirrelly than Elite 3. As for your move, you will experience a great culture change! But for your tires, the best I’ve experienced in Arizona and recommend is the Elite 3. NO ONE gets 20+K miles out of any motorcycle tire! The best I ever got was 14K. Note: The mechanic personally sought me out and handed the old tire to me. He ask if I had good life insurance and pointed out the visible cords. The tires were Elite 3. I just plan wore them out. But they didn’t fail and kill me. Recommend you speak with Wing Stuff and your local Honda mechanic, not the service agent. |
