| These came on my 07 wing when i bought it new,i got 13000 kms out of the first tire,i also towed a cargo trailer 5000 kms out of that.Put a dunlop elite 3 on at 13000kms and have been running it for 6000kms, I find the dunlop is really loud and not as sm0th as the stones.When the dunlop wears out i have a bridgestone 704 out in the garage ready to replace it.Think i,m going to stick with the bridgestones |
| Simple install, did a little tweaking before final install |
| I couldn't imagine running anything except Bridgestone tires on my bike!! Owned two Wings and the first one came with Metzler's installed. They "cupped out", with 50% tread remaining. Second Goldwing,(an '02), came with Stones and the ONLY reason I'm replacing them at 10K miles is due to the age of the tire, NOT because of treadlife remaining. Using an "actual" tread measuring device, my "old" tires have 60% of the tread that my brand new Bridgestone's came with. Considering this, along with the overall quality I have enjoyed with every mile, including smooth quiet ride, safe grip on ANY road surface and not once did I have to fight with "tar snakes". Bottom Line,...this tire was MADE for everything the Goldwing can dish out and more !! |
| Couldn't get much simpler in both the installation and usage catagories. When they say,...."Plug-N-Play", they mean exactly that. Remove the left fairing pocket, drill a 7/8" hole in the pocket wall and plug into the power source Honda left for this purpose and Vio'la,..all done !! Wish ALL add-on's were this easy. |
| Installed it is my wing with the Trunk liner. If you get the lid organizer to full, lid will not close. Otherwise, great product. |
| super nice product. very light weight. simple to install. only took around 1 hour and 45 min. need to put in the description, that if your trl. has a 4 wire lighting system you will need the 5 to 4 wire converter. rivco put this in the install instructions, but had i known i needed it i would have bought it from wingstuff when i bought the hitch. no biggie still very, very satisified. |
| I'm over 6'. The 4.5" allow me to lower my pegs so I can strech out. With the 6" the highway pegs were scraping before the footpegs. |
| I have an '06. I had problems getting the positive to tighten down. The bolt holes don’t line up between the connectors and post. The posts are offset on the battery. It was very difficult to hook up with my batter tender cable and my synergy cable. |
| The product looks great but was very difficult to install. The installation bolts did not line up with the original extension mount holes which had to be elongated with a Dremel. Also difficult to work my fingers between the tire and the fender so it had to come off. Kuryakyn's estimated 20 minutes turned into 2 hours. |
| Certainly worth the purchase. The OEM line is too small if you're planning on connecting to a handlebar mounted device. I am using this to connect to a Garmin GPS on a RAM-Mount. |

Daniel, I also just purchased these from Wing Stuff. I did not have any algnment issues with my template. I also have a 2010 GL1800. Do you have an Airbag model? As for the lower wings set I have not ridden since install but I think they will work out just fine. I will update my post when I have fully tested them. MOnty |

Bought this mid-July 2010 along with the cooling vest, great investment, I can use this or the vest or both together. Cooled up really quickly after total immersion for about 1/2 hour but only lasted about 1 1/2 hours that I can tell (took it off after that, sorry, didn't pay attention to how cool it was) Maybe next time I'll put it in the freezer. I know that I can fold it up and put it in my little storage area on my bike and if it gets hot and I need it, I can pull into a gas station or somewhere and immerse it. Only gave 4 stars because it IS pretty long and I couldn't figure out if the velcro allowed it to stay wrapped around the neck 2x (didn't quite make it) or just allowed the ends to 'stay together' when I put it down into my bra. Unfortunately I left the bag and stuff at the dealer so didn't grab the instructions. Oh well, it worked really nicely, especially in conjunction with the cooling vest. |
