| GREAT PRODUCT!!! Well worth the money. I had these installed along with the Kuryakyn Gen II fork brace, and what a difference! Smooth ride and tight feel in the twisties. My Honda dealer was so impressed, he's going to stock these balancers for other customers. Thanks, Centramatic!! |

I bought this item to complete my Goldwing 2005 chrome accents. The first thing when I opened the item was to overlay it on the dash to see the fit. As expected, it was not a good fit. I read the provided instructions carefully. As instructed, I manually formed the dash accent to fit as best as possible to the dash. That meant that manually you have to bend the accent in a way to get the best fit. Once I felt that the accent was formed top conform to the profile of the dash, I cleaned the dash with rubbing alcohol, removed the tape backing from the accent and placed it on the dash (I noticed that the tape was kind of thin) I put pressure for about 5 minutes throughout the accent. After 1 week of used, it started to lift up by the right corner and in the middle. I was disappointed. I try to remove it from the dashboard. In certain areas it was really adhered to the surface. After carefully putting pressure/force to pull it from the dash,the accent broke in two areas. Being technically oriented, this item should have been assembled with thicker and stronger adhesive tape. Having to remove it from its location once is installed, your chances of this part braking is increased tremendously. The accent is already stressed by the forming process, specially in the thinner sections, to make it fit properly to your dash that when needing to remove in a case like mine the part will brake on you. Highly dissapointed with this item!!! |

These lights are EXTRA bright, both day and night - even throw off a nice glow on the road at night. I installed these at the same time as I added the fairing/stealth light and the mirror LED turn signal combo. As others have done, I used the required seperate adapter for the turn/stealth lights and piggy-backed off of it with a connection to spare, so everything was plug and play on my 08'. The hardest part was fishing the wires up to the turn-signal harness, but even that only took about 10 minutes since I already had the side compartments out to run the other light's wiring. Can't go wrong with these! |
| Look great, but one of mine faded so am now replacing the set. |
| Great! I was going to contact Kuryakyn to see if I could get a replacement. Actually they stayed on for 3 years before I lost one, so not too bad. Thanks for having these in stock! |
| Looks great along with the crome cowl |

The Bridgestone tires are great. Switched from original Dunlops to these and noticed a significant change in cornering. With the Dunlops, the bike seemed to want to straighten itself all the time when cornering whereas the Bridgestones does what you want it to do and stays in the cornering mode until it's time to straighten up. With these tires, you can't wait for the corners and winding roads. I give the tires a 5+ star rating but only a 3 star to Wingstuff because they sent me a 2 year old tire which means I can only get 1 year out of them due to laws in Dubai making it mandatory to change tires that are older than 3 yrs old. I complained but did not receive a response from Wingstuff. |

2nd entry... Now with over 10,000 miles and many miles left to go, I am even more impressed. These are my 8th set of tires on my 05. By far the best tires I've ever had. Whether it is one of our local curves or hammering through the Tail of the Dragon, I am amazed how smooth and how they grip and handle. The Bridgestones radials and the Centramtics are a great combination. Thanks again Rick for another great recommendation! |

2nd entry. The Centramatics are still amazing. Now with over 10,000 miles since they were installed at WingDing in July. The tires still look very good and the Wing is still smooth as silk. First time ever with no wobble and shimmy. I am extremely impressed. My co-pilot (wife) says something about how smooth the ride is almost everytime we are riding. I now realize the ROI will be even quicker than I expected. A big thanks to super Rick and to Geoff at Centramatic. |

I've done about 1000km since I installed them, I can't say I've found any miracles happen, but then my bike does'nt seem to have many of the ills described by other Goldwing owners. But yes, at any speed over 40 my wheels feel balanced. No wobbling, wiggling or any other ing. These went on with a set of new tires and no balancing. Works as advertised. One funny thing is the marbles slushing around at slow speeds, turn up the audio and ignore it. |

Functional result : Can't feel any difference, Ime 6'2 and honestly no change. Maybe there will be for any passengers I may have but.... Looks : Beats the standard windshield, I wasn't even dissapointed I felt no change because it actually looks very good. Installation : My mechanic did it while the lid was being taken off anyway. |
| I was getting a neck pain from bending over until I installed the tall rider risers. Now I can ride for hours without the pain. I'm 6'1" and the riding position is a lot better now. I installed these myself in about 1 hour. Trimming the upper plastic bolt cover took the longest to fit. |
