Roadstar RoadWing Mod 

Awesome! I just saw this (4 weeks late) but if you need any help let me know!

@@JasonJohnCowart thanks brother

I did the same with the brick but put a 4' crowbar between the wheel and the brick easy to move the tire to line up

lol truth

So a couple of things...Yes it drastically helps the ride. I haven't bottomed out once on the bike and the actual smoothness of the ride is better. Even my kids felt it the first time they rode after installing it. Another thing is that it allows the bike to sit up a little higher which helped me with clearance getting into my driveway. I live in a neighborhood where the curbs are slanted which creates a good bump up. Before I'd have to creep up but now I can drive up it with not bottoming out issues. Being able to adjust it for the weight (1 up vs 2 up) has allowed the ride to be much smoother. It is absolutely the best upgrade I've done in terms of a difference in operation. ED Seat was the second thing. Also, I've noticed zero negatives to cornering or anything like that. Seriously I can't think of a single negative. All good!

Look in the description and you'll see a website for Bill Kingsley. That is where i got mine.

They do have to be modified slightly. What I would do is jump over to Facebook and look up a god named Billy Kingsley Jr. he is in the Roadstar clinic Facebook group and the Yamaha Road star riders Facebook group. He makes them so he would definitely be the guy to ask. He’s who I got mine from. If you look in the description on this video you can see his website as well. As far as the midnight goes, there are several variations of a Roadstar. Mine is a regular Lonestar, there is the Silverado, and there is the midnight. They are just different trim options. It doesn’t mean much difference in terms of the mechanics.

Not sure about the air shock as I’ve never had one, but since I’ve installed it, not only has the ride been exponentially smoother, I haven’t bottomed out on anything yet like I did before. As far as the electrical goes, mine is an electric rap that allows me to adjust the load hydraulically. This allows me to firm it up what I ride two up and lessen it a little when it is just me. You can purchase manual raps as well that have a knob that can adjust the shock as well.

@@JasonJohnCowart OK the feed back is much appreciated! Thank you for the insight I am going to look into this. Thanks again!

I'm not sure, but that is only because I didn't measure it before installing it. I do know that it "felt" lower at the lowest point than stock, but that could be totally subjective. My 10 year old daughter instantly noticed a difference on a ride that afternoon though. If she could notice, that must mean it works well!

@@JasonJohnCowart Thanks for the info

I haven't but man alive is the ride amazing with the roadwing.
