| Mine has been on a year -- no problems--still looks perfect. Jazzes up the front of the fairing |
| These are needed if you are going to chrome out the side of your bike. Mine have been on for a year now and still look like new. The rubbers are located perfectly to prevent scuffing. |
| works good. make sure helmet shield is very clean and dry when you put it on and that you are in a low humidity area. Follow the instructions and get it centered the first time and start from the center out to the outside of the shield. |
| Great bag, great price. Jusst fits my Nolan N42 helmet. Nice strap slots in bottom of bag for helmet strap to stick through to lock it to the bike. |
| I had to get these direct from a Honda Dealer several weeks ago & this WingStuff price, may look high per each, is a very good price in comparrison to the overall dealer cost. |
| Sorry to say I cannot recommend this. It looks GREAT, but the sharp edges on the rack cut through the straps on My trunk bag. So I went to the rounded rack instead. The rounded rack may not be as stylish, but the functionality works better. |
| Stops the nagging bouncing around sound from loose objects. They fit well, and can be washed easily. |

First let me say I had nothing but Metzlers on my 1200's. LOVED them. Then we get to the 1800's.... My brand new '03 had ME880's put on several days after I bought it (stock Dunlops were 1" out of round!!!!I won't detail the 22 mpg due to faulty O2 sensors, the sand found clogging left bank, the overheating with coolant blowing out, the blown shaft seal, etc. All of which Honda Customer Service said was `within specs', and took the threat of a lawsuit to get rectified...) But I digress. My Metzlers rode smooth as silk and sticky as a Cinnabun. But then the wobble started at 4,000 miles. I replaced the stock springs with GoldPoints, and had the neck bearings replaced with tapered. (WHY doesn't Honda use tapered as stock? Apparently they have NO desire to improve the bike..)The wobble disappeared. After 10,000 miles, I replaced them with new Metzlers due to wear (I would trade performance for mileage any time). Then came the 2005 trip to Nova Scotia (I live in Calif.) 11,000 miles to and from, and it was the smoothest ride. No wobble. No Humming. The rear was worn, so I replaced them both with new M's. Unfortuately, 1,000 miles later, the '03 was totaled by a wayward winery truck...so I bought a friend's '04. Enter the '04 fiasco. I immediately did the neckbearings and spring thing. I tossed the POS Dunlops in 3/06, and put on M's. IMMEDIATE horrible wobble on the front. The dealer (Concord Honda and they work great with me) determined the tire was bad (it was dated 26/02). They sent it back to Parts Unlimited, wrapped in white paper, with `BAD TIRE' in marker across the paper. They ordered a new tire. Parts Unlimited sent them a new one. Guess what...It was the SAME TIRE STILL WRAPPED IN PAPER!They called the rep, and he said that was all he had. So they called Metzler. I told them I wanted a NEW tire, not a tire 4 years old. He said they didn't have any, and age had no effect on a tire. After 6 months of having to ride UNSAFE on the piece of crap tire I was stuck with, Concord found a tire for me, dated 21/04 at another dealer. They replaced it NO CHARGE. That tire never had a wobble. 10,000 miles later, I put another set of M's on. The front tire has never wobbled. Now, after 6,000 miles, the rear losing 10 PSI over a week. I have found a split, 4" long, inside the tread on the rear. So I am putting on 2 new M's, even though the front is still good. I bough the tires 6 months ago just to have, and they are dated 24/05. I just believe in replacing both at the same time. I know the story is long, but bottom line, I am giving 4 stars instead of 5 not for the tires, but for the fiasco I was put through by Metzler and Parts Unlimited in sending back a blatantly bad tire and not caring enough to replace it with a proper tire at the time. That, and the split I have found inside the rear's tread. I still believe the Metzler has the stickiest ride. My friends also swear by the Bridgestone, but they admit the front follows rain gooves and ruts. The M's totally ignore ruts, grooves, and metal bridges. Even at 10,000 miles on a set of very expensive tires, They stick to the road, even with tar patches. I will stay with the M's until they totally piss me off. Then I will use a M880 on the front, and a Bridgestone on the rear. AND, if you are experiencing the `1800 Wobble', I do suggest you install the aftermarket springs, and tapered bearings. That, and diabling the insipid anti-dive system (e-mail if you want to know how cheap and without alteration), will improve the ride immensely. |
| Instructions said use blocks of wood to hold up trunk, when in fact the two foam packing pieces are purpose designed for that job. Make sure u stretch the template before taping down. Mark holes exact and dig deep with very sharp tool or tip of drywall screw. I started with 1/16 inch bit, then worked up to 1/4 inch. When drilling, new bits help and note that the 3 protrusions are parallel to each other in the horizontal plane and fit pointing slightly downward. Did not have the 8mm bit so just carefully worked the 1/4 bit to enlarge. 5/16 is too big and 9/32 may be closer. Tightened carefully the screws for a snug flush fit, top and bottom. You then shud have a non-flimsy add-on. Actually seems to reinforce the flexible trunk lip. For a piece of lightweight plastic looks and works great. |
| Product is exactly as advertised. Easy install. Wife helped to hold in place on one side which made the install easier. Rubber mudflap portion is nice and flexible. |
| great and looks factory installed |
| Easy install and great addition, and as always honda looks ahead for the add on with all the plugs where they need to be. |
