For me well worth the money
I am a state motor vehicle safety inspector. I do Inspections on motorcycles cars, light trucks, heavy trucks and trailers. That said and out of the way, I was presented with a Goldwing for Inspection and had to drive it into the shop. There is a 1" lip of concrete that hit at an angle on a motorcycle causes a flex. I was used to it so it did not bother me. Upon bringing this Goldwing in there was no flex. I did notice it had fancy handlebars. As I was talking to the owner of the bike after the inspection he told me about his Helibars and how much he loved them, yada,yada, yada. When I finally got my wing 14 months ago I felt I was riding like on a crotch rocket. Then I remembered the wing I inspected a year earlier. I decided to install. and man-o-man what a difference. Handle bars a little higher and further back helped my posture no end. I am glad that I purchased from Wingstuff. |

As good as it gets
I have an '08 Navi bike. I was on the fence for a couple of years because of the price tag. I wish I'd done it sooner! My reason was to hopefully change my wrist angle due to discomfort with the stock setup. My intentions were to bring the grips back, and then angle the ends of the bars forward. They really do adjust to about any position/angle you'd think of. But i wasn't able to get them back far enough to accomplish my goal. I found a sweet compromise by angling the grips down and slightly back. This provides the most comfort for me. I suggest that you keep at it if you can't seem to get them where you want. I changed mine a half dozen times before I found the sweet spot, so don't give up! As an added bonus, these bars have virtually eliminated the decel wobble that my bike has had since brand new. In a nutshell, I love 'em and I've never regretted buying them. They are very high quality. |

Responsive and comfortable
I've had them on the bike for about a week and over 400 miles and have no regrets purchasing the HeliBars. The bike feels more responsive and more comfortable now that I can place the grips where I want them. U-turns while 2-up are much easier now than with the stock setup. My only gripe would be that it seems like you can only move the grips up and forward, or back and down, because of the way the adjustable pivot points rotate. Self-installation went rather smoothly. The left handlebar does take some time to get off using the tool they provide, but it wasn't difficult, just tedious. I'd rather take the time to do it right than damage the heated grips. The provided instructions and photos, while not particularly awesome, were sufficient to help get the task done with a minimum of uncertainty. Bleeding the brake lines was also hassle free thanks to the bleeder valves they've included - genius! |

Helibar
I would love to have one but being a disabled Vet that rides a trike I really can't afford one at that cost |

LST Horizon HeliBars for GL1800
I have the "Limited 1rst Production" on my 2014 BLACK EDITION GL1800 - This is by far the Best Handle Bar System on the market. There will be issues with F4 Customs Windshields (as they are a full 2" wider than the Honda Stock Windshields) when fully turned left or right as the Clutch and Brake handles will come into contact but this can be Delt with if your aware & carefull (I try to never turn the bars that far while driving, rather it happens while pushing bike around & loading onto lifts &/or trailers) also when adjusted to a "Sport Bike" position - fully streight & at it's highest position it will obstruct your mirrors so, plan accordingly (I use a additional mirror temporarily mounted atop the stock Mirrors while riding in this configuration) the multiple ways to "Set" these Heli-Bars makes controlling the GoldWing unparalleled and widens your experiential nature aboard this 1832cc Flat Six World Class Motor Cycle. Highly recommend you combine this with a Fork brace and the Anti-Dive Fork Shims to compliment your set up. LOVE IT â€¼ï¸ |

Excellent Product
2015 GL1800: Adjustability is outstanding. I'm still fine tuning them but that is easy, just as shown on the product website video. My local area and long distance ride seating positions are different so the quick, exact setting changes are appreciated. My Wing feels so different now, much better. |

Do not install it if you have f4 custom windshield
I just installed mine and if i turn completly left or right, the cluth lever and front brake lever will hit the windshield. However, it is better than stock handlebar. Thinking of trimming the sides of the windshield. |

Update on Butler Mug w/Heli Bars
After calling Glass Act (manufacturer of Butler Mug) I found that their Python mount will work with the Heli Bars. I mounted the Python bracket today. |

Butler mug will not mount like on the OEM bars.
I give the bars 3 stars because the butler mug can not be mounted like on the OEM bars. Had I know this, I'd would not have purchased these bars. |

best add on ever
I hated the stock handlebars. too low and narrow. rode for a few years with handlebar risers installed. a bit better than stock but not quite right. Installed the Helibars a few months ago. Probably the best thing i have done to my wing. Bars are now higher, wider and come back a bit more. the adjustability is great. So much more comfortable. No more pain or cramps in my shoulders. The other huge benefit is handling. so much more control on the steering. effortless. Highly recommend. |

A must
Installed these my self wish they had a video to go with the instructions but you can find all of the steps on different product videos if you take the time to look. Now that they are on other reviews are right they should come stock from the factory. Changed tires on my 2012 to brigstone on the advice of a mechanic and no with these bars handles licke a dream. |

Finally got HeliBars
And I am very happy. At 6'plus I have always suffered with the stock bars. I promised myself that if i ever got a new Wing HeliBars would be on it. I ordered them right after I got my 2016. I installed them myself. It took just over 4 hours to complete. The part that took the longest was the tedious procedure of removing the left heated grip. About 1 hour 45 minutes of the procedure. The bottom line is these are superior quality and the fit is perfect. And if I decide the fit is not perfect, I can change it. :) Very very satisfied. |
