| I love this rack. It is solid. Installation was fairly simple. The only problem was that the rack feet angles were off. Better factory quality control would be a wonderful thing here. I had to file the feet to match the angle of my trunk lid. I also used the star washers to help spread out the load on the trunk lid. |
| I have used K&N filters for years on my automobiles. I love the fact that I won't have to disassemble my cowl for another 25,000 miles! Installation was moderately easy. My 2008 GL1800 was different then the photos in my factory service manual. Take you time and be sure to put the bolts back into the exact hole that they come out of. Some of the bolts are a different length. |

A week ago I installed the trunk handle myself and it was a breeze. You WILL need two different "sharp" drill bits to install properly. Just follow the directions and it will be a piece. It is as functional as it's good trick looks. SNP Jr. |
| Be very careful when removing the plastic wrap from these units. I managed to break one of the tabs off the center section on the trunk trim getting it off. I don't know why Show Chrome insists on double plastic vacuum wrap on many of their parts but this has been a headache before. I used a dab of grease on the thread bosses prior to installing the screws but several of them still split when starting the screws in. This seems to be an ongoing problem with these parts and is mentioned in many of the reviews and I suspect that Honda uses ABS plastic while Show Chrome uses polystyrene which is more brittle in nature. Once installed though the fit and finish is very good. |
| HELP! I can't get the clam shell shut. The rubbers slide on no problem, but I just can't squeeze the two outer pieces shut. I've even tried quick-grip pipe clamps. The instructions say to pull on the rubber while you push on the shell - I guess I need two more hands. |
| Order through Ultimate seats with some custom accents. Installed and they look awesome. I had these on my old bike and loved them. Many thousands of miles of enjoyment. When I upgraded to the goldwing, tnis was on the top of my wish list. Really exited to put many more miles on these. |
| Purchase along with the OEM spolier. Really looks great and the extra lights always help. Both took less than a hour to install. No issues installing both due to all of the great reviews and hints. The only concern was a little play in the unit when installed on the spolier. I had to shorten the screws to correct. Not sure if a good idea or not, but I did apply a litle silicone adhesive to give a little more support. |

I have a serious question for all people here. I am looking to purchase new tires for my 2008 GL1800. I was not impressed with the OEM Dunlop Elite 3's. Living in Ohio the Dunlop’s always seemed to slip a little on rain slicked roads (I'm not an aggressive rider). I like the Avon reviews here on wingstuff, but I have to ask a couple of questions ... Question #1: Has anyone here had any experience with installing a "car" tire on the rear of their wing? I have seen some mixed reviews and have zero personal experience with this concept. Question #2: I will be moving to the Mesa, Arizona area next year. Will the excessive heat on the Arizona desert require a different tire consideration? It’s almost riding weather here in Ohio! :o) |
