Haha wanted it to look good for the video :) Glad you liked it! I highly recommend you get yourself a set. Helibars doesn't generally put their products on sale, but if you order with us you'll get 3-5% back (depending on tier) in WingReward points which you can use as discounts on future purchases. Hope this helps and ride safe!

I have done quite a few mods on my 2018, including the tour pack removal to bagger look, but for some reason this looks overly complicated. maybe it's just me, but I won't be able to tackle this one.

Late to the party but I really appreciate this vid! Just went and checked out a new ‘23 GW. My heart sunk as soon as I got on it. Stock bars are sooo low and forward. Was an instant turn off. Can’t imagine what size rider the stock seating/bar position works for. 6’1”, 34” inseam.

Well just a couple issues encountered in my installation. These are advertised as complete kit, but does not allow for let’s say upgrading from risers to full horizon handlebars. The dealer installed heli-risers, and didn’t provide me any take-offs, such as the four main bolts and washers. So I previewed the instructions and got 4 new 10 mm bolts ahead of installation. Not washers, so I am out to hardware store for washers. And the center control panel to be removed is kinda glanced over? Had to go to video by others…. Anyway although I am midway in installing this product seems very good quality and engineered so well, I love it already! Getting the bolts out required a 1/2” pneumatic powered impact gun??? But I’m going precision when torquing to your specs?? I will prevail.

Hello. On the left hand side handle bar control there is a toggle switch hanging down, what is this for and where did you get it. Is it a momentary type switch. Please hope you can answer

@WingStuffcom 3 жыл бұрын

Hello Paul. Thanks for reaching out to us with your question. I believe you're referring to the CB control switch. I have a CB radio installed. You can purchase a CB radio kit and a CB antenna with us here: wingstuff.com/shop/cb_radios

This video is missing the most important part. How do you adjust them? It looks like that console will have to be removed every time. And, will this work with a manual trans? Does the clutch lever, and the hose to it, impact the installation?

would be nice to see this done on 2001 -2017 GL1800s since many people still have those. i have a 2001 with heated grips, and i hear the heated grips may be destroyed trying to do this upgrade, so i haven't pulled the trigger on it yet. but i did notice left elbow pain after a 1200 mile trip last year, so wondering if this would be the solution, but not wanting to tackle this beast of a job. there is only one competent goldwing mechanic shop here in las vegas nevada, but even so, i had to redo, myself, some wiring stuff they got paid to do in the past on my bike due to being sloppy. so, not wanting to deal with them anymore.

Thanks for the suggestion. We'll talk with Harry and see what we can do! In the meantime, our customer service guys will be more than happy to help clarify your question about your heated grips: 949-454-2199, customerservice@wingstuff.com or use the chat feature on WingStuff.com.

That’s way more complicated than it needs to be. Just add a riser that raises the bars a bit and pulls them rearward. Then you don’t have to do 80% of what you did here.

@WingStuffcom 2 жыл бұрын

HeliBars does make risers for the Gold Wing but there's less adjustability. We have customers who first bought the risers and then the Horizon Bars and said there was a dramatic difference in comfort and reduced fatigue. Thanks for your comment!

To me thats a lot of effort for very little if any gain, looks no real different to me, plus cables on show looks amateur. Any bar change on a Harley you can see a difference and look more refined
