| Just installed the new powder coated balancers on my 2006 goldwing. So far they work great with the balancing of the tires, will see what kind of milage I get out of the Bridgestones I installed with them. Took on the challenge to change my own tires with a good friend who is also a GWRRA associate, and he showed me alot about installing tires, make sure you know what you are doing before you try this yourself. Would have been nice if they had paperwork or stamps in the center that states which side goes next to the rim. I read many reviews about the paint problems others were having, and I love the powder coat, will see how they hold up to the hear and rain of the South Carolina weather. Will keep you informed with the status. |
| Very nice luggage rack. It is a bit tricky to install, Take your time and I recomend buying the risers, because they give you greater Hole coverage so if you have to elongate the holes (and you will) the wide base will cover the holes. Looks really good on my wing. |
| This thing was easy to install, and plugged right in to my wiring of the bike under the glove box. Just be careful when removing the box, the little push pins are easy to loose when pulling the box out. Easy to use with any accessory you want to plug into it. |
| Have ordered these twice so far both sets have a large gap at bottom to where the foam does not even touch. |

As stated in the earlier posts the install was more than you would anticipate. I chose these over the other types because they don't (IMO) look as bulky as those. Helps keep that area of the bike cleaner looking. Also saw these on another Wing and my wife got to test sit them thought they were very comfortable. |

More visibility is always good and this helps. I added EC 1320 run brake turn to give even more lights |

I've had these on the bike about months now. I bought them because on an '01 with factory heated grips the only option to put a larger diameter grip on the bike is more than I want to pay. These little foam devils are very comfortable. I was amazed at how much they actually did increase the overall diameter of the grips. I did a 1000 mile trip shortly after installing the grips and they made for a much more comfortable ride. Much less fatigue for my hands. As far as working with the heated grips, yes they do. You will have to turn them up a bit higher to allow the heat to radiate through the Grip Puppies (of course) but they worked just fine in that regard. 3 stars? Yup. The install was a real bugger for me. Tried soaking them in hot water, tried the soap on the inside, tried forcing them, tried yelling at them, etc etc. Finally, I used two long, small diameter screw drivers, one on each side of the handle bar. I kept twisting the screw drivers around the handle bar while maintaining one on each side of the bars and the grip actually slid up and into place without too much difficulty. Just be careful not to cut the Puppy, or you'll be buying new ones. |
| Really keeps the wind off the riders fingers and arms, along with keeping wind off the passengers head. Use the Honda tool kit phillips screwdriver when removing the OEM screw in the bottom of the mirrow, then slowly turn left, then right, then left until lock-tight seal is broken. My Sears Craftsman phillips head screwdriver did not seat in the screw nearly as well as the tool kits screwdriver. |
| Had put off buying this luggage rack for three+ years. Finally broke down and bought one. Should have bought one three years+ ago. Definitley makes the bike look even better. I installed the rack myself and it was a breeze. I would suggest using a cone or step drill vs. a standard drill bit (Creates less heat and makes a cleaner hole). The chrome was nearly perfect. I did notice one small blemish in the chrome finish of my rack. I also wish Kuryakyn would include thier own star washers with the rack. The small cone washers included with the rack are useless in my opinion. I thought ahead and ordered a set of STAR washers and they look much better and will disperse the weight mush better. All-in-all a great addition to my wing. |
| Looks great on my Gold/Goldwing trike. Only took about two hours because i had to lower the front floorboards of the trike to get to the side screws. I added the foglights as well with the timming cover at the same time. still adding WingStuff. Chris |
| They work great! I have had them installed for well over a year now, and they are still in good shape. Would buy them again. |
