@steveknode4517 2 года назад

Good job, Chris. I have several of your additions but, as a few others mentioned, the highway pegs save my rear end and the best I've used is Mic-O-Pegs. I love the way they are tucked up out of the way when not being used and pivot down in to position when I need them. Very much like riding in a saddle. You can actually lift your rear off the seat for a while. Added to that is my AirHawk seat cushion. Without that I'd have to have the seat modified as you did.

@NRALifeMbr 2 года назад

After having followed you and others I respect in the new Goldwing world, I have many of the same mods to my 2019 DCT Tour. For me, the high mounted rear brake light is a must. I chose the Goldstrike version and am very happy with it. After my hinge mounting points on my 2003 destroyed themselves over time because I had the heavy Honda Trunk Spoiler/light, i was very cautious to add the Honda Trunk Rack and light. The Goldstrike is very light. I also have the Pathfinder Cowl lights, Muth Mirrors, AddOn sequential turn signals, Honda Upper Air Deflectors. I was also fortunate enough to ride down to John Connolly's place last December and get his Wingsoft Mod. What a nice guy. My ass has felt oh so much better after that cost effective mod. Before Pathfinder LED came out with their Hub, I installed the Showchrome Fuse Block and have most everything running to that with the aid of the WAGO Lever Nuts. Those are awesome. Keep up the great content and my wife and I would like to buy you lunch the next time we are down your way.

@alp3781 2 года назад

Great video. For me as of now....visibility is the number one and as soon as I got my 2020, I went to town and got it all lighting kits all around. The headlight flashing is the best I have ever installed. After lighting kits, HWY pegs, F4 windscreen and Utopia backrest.

The brake modulator is definitely a good safety accessory for the rear end of the bike, the head light modulator is also a good safety accessory, however I will increase my frontal visibility one more notch with the addition of a YELLOW driving or fog lights...There are lots of white LED lights that are flooding the roads/freeways these days these days and making my bike standout with a bright yellow/amber light I think will make me standout among the rest...thanks for sharing

@edwardkellar8835 2 года назад

Chris, I’m surprised that you didn’t mention any version of highway pegs. I had a 2018 Tour model, and after 50,000 miles, I traded it in for a 2020 Tour model. The upgrades I removed from the 2018 and put on the 2020 were the F4 20” windscreen, and my Rivco highway pegs. I have made 8 1000 plus mile rides, in one sitting, with just these two accessories. The Rivco pegs absolutely help when touring long distance, and keep my legs from getting stiff and sore. Great video…. Keep them coming!

@cruisemansgarage 2 года назад

The Rivco pegs almost made the list. They are my favorite highway pegs, even though I removed them because I need quick access to my engine covers for video production.

@kenbred46 Год назад

The very first thing for me was replacing the foot pegs with floorboards and adding highway pegs to stretch out. Second a better horn. For me using the apple play with Waze on my phone is way better than any garman. Waze will direct you around any and all traffic jams or slow downs and will alert you to hazards in the road ahead. Brought to you live by drivers ahead of you. There is no need for a modulated brake light as you can get simple LED bulbs that give 3 flashes and then on steady. Only $10 and a bulb swap.

@robertwhitemoto Год назад

Great stuff!!! Can’t wait to get a new gold wing

@donrozette2706 2 года назад

Thanks Cruiseman! I haven't pulled the trigger on either of the skid plates you've recently reviewed. I feel like this is going in the right direction, and agree with others that the front brackets should be pre-bent and should be a heavier gauge stainless. Also the mounting hardware is not the best for the application/ Nylok nuts would handle the vibration better.

@kimhorton6109 Год назад

Heated grips, at least one power outlet. I like Bead Rider seat, Garmin Zumo(pick your favorite model). Map holder. Grip puppies. The trunk fairing with the brake light that works out to eye level for cars behind you. The Sequential mirrors are an accessory I like but getting them screwed down tight didn’t work. The right side fell out and I have one mirror left. I’ve only ever had a replacement seat from Corbin and I wouldn’t do that for the money he wants.

Hi Cruiseman, thx for your 11 tips. I would not use nr 10 as an extra nav is not necessary in my opinion. I use Apple carplay in combination with Scenic motorroutes. It works really fantastic and is always up to date via your phone. You can also use it off line. Further I would never go without an extra (flashing)breaking light on my trunk in combination with the rack.

@thomasjamesii 2 года назад

FYI Wingsoft website link is incorrect.....Great video/s. Thanks for all you do on your channel as it greatly appreciated.

@DexQuin 2 года назад

I see you like lights, but you don’t truly like hitting the road. Because most people I talked to say you need to get Goldstrike 3-Way Adjustable Highway Pegs for those long rides. I know from experience if you’re on the road for more than 1 hour, you need road pegs! By the way, I ride a 2021 Gold Wing and I love it, but I need to get me some highway pegs! Keep up the good work Cruiseman. 😎

@johncox1505 2 года назад

Andy from Kisan said it had to be a problem in the bike. I have had an issue last year with it, but not since then. I was a little aggravated when I asked about a return and he pretty much said that it wasn't there product and that's not going to happen. Another thing, Andy said he would call me back that day or the next. Both times he never did and after a couple of days I had to call him.

@danaszalajeski4416 2 года назад

My list of must have addons that I would highly recommend and I had installed on my 2018 Tour DCT would be, and in no particular order: F4 windscreen (adjustable wind/rain protection) Honda upper and lower wind deflectors (Wind/rain protection) Centramatic Wheel Balancers (never have to deal with weights or beads again) Front fender extender (helps prevent front engine cover damage from kicked up road debris & tar) Luggage Rack (Provides an anchor point to tie down items on passenger seat) Third brake light (preferably Run/Turn/Brake function) Utopia rider back rest (rider comfort) Fog/Driving lights (extra visibility) Honda Home Link (convenience factor for garage door opener) Goldstrike arm rests with drink holder socket (passenger comfort and convenience) Goldstrike cupholders and handlebar mount (rider and passenger convenience) Tiedown brackets (a must have securing point if you need to trailer/tow the motorcycle) Electrical isolation distribution block (electrical safety) Dual camera system (silent witness black box if shit happens) (I had the INNOVV K2) Goldstrike 3-way adjustable highway pegs (comfort)

@cruisemansgarage 2 года назад

@barrygitzel1118 18 дней назад

@davidedwards5773 9 месяцев назад

New subscriber working on getting a GW DCT. I like your content hence why I subscribed. Really surprised though that a Traxxion Dynamics belly pan engine guard was not in the list. I know it isn't as nice looking as some of the stuff in your list but at the risk of ruining your $12 to $13 thousand engine it would be my first choice. I plan on getting pretty much everything on your list plus an Ultimate seat. Thanks for the vids and when I do get my wing I will be ordering your maintenance videos. Thanks from Ontario Canada.

@ghostofmanitou6864 2 года назад

I've always felt comfortable on my stock 2018 Goldwing dct. I've taken round trips from Omaha to Colorado springs and have been about as comfortable as you can expect on a motorcycle. I tend to stick to the interstate as opposed to highways that way I can get up and walk about every 2nd or 3rd rest area, gas is always only an exit or two away and I can set set the cruise control slightly above the speed limit and eat up miles quickly. I also find that short frequent walks on a long trip keeps my level of alertness high. I could see considering some of the lighting options though, there is no such thing as being too noticeable on a bike.

@gregcautrell1259 2 года назад

I'm not one for "farkles", or as my brother would say, "it looks like he drove through J.C. Whitney with the crap magnet turned on". The best accessory I have installed on my 2020 is my Hartco custom seat. It's got the factory compatible heater and they make their own fiberglass seat pans. All day comfortable and easier to take off and put on than the factory seat, and I still have the factory seat if I want to sell the bike. I don't regret that purchase.

@stevetaylor8698 2 года назад

Light modulators are illegal in most of Europe - particularly headlight ones which is unfortunate. One thing you don't mention, nor do most other bloggers is a rear (red) fog light. Foglights have to be fitted to cars by law (drivers switching them on is another thing) but for some reason, they have never been a requirement on motorcycles, which given their size and lack of lights generally - compared to a car/truck, doesn't really make sense.

I only turn the head light modulator off if I'm following the same car for a long time on a hwy with no cross traffic or on coming traffic on a two lane where the drivers coming at me might be thinking of passing on the wrong side of the road. They made the law allowing modulators because they determined it would save lives so I ride with mine on 99% of the time. Getting these laws on the books isn't easy so I figure they must have stats to prove they save lives.

I'm in the Navy and sometime need to carry large bags on my bike. Without the luggage rack, I would not be able to place the bag on the rear seat and use bungies to tie off from the passenger grab rails to the luggage rack. Also the Goldstrike arm rests with the sockets for the drink holder is helpful as I can also hook a cargo net bungie in that hole and to the luggage rack. I also had the the third brake light from Honda. I just wish it would have been a brake /run/turn light instead of just a brake light.

I’m looking forward to your video on linking the Garmin XT to my BT helmet. I do okay with the bike GPS but miss all the features the XT unit will give the rider over the bikes GPS’s limited scope. I hope this can be done while keeping rider / passenger communication as well as the bikes music and Apple Play accessibility.

So your thoughts between your 5/11/2020 Ultimate Seat and recommended Wingsoft to the OEM beside cost? Ultimate worth the cost or less cost of Wingsoft?

why does honda offer the goldwing as the ultimate touring bike, but lacks the option to add a tour pack rack for suitcase/carrybag like a harley touring?

@danaszalajeski4416 2 года назад

Honda does sell a luggage rack for the Goldwing as an optional accessory. However, I would like to see something a little more versatile than the one offered, as it's a little small.

In re: Your item 10: Garmin Zumo XT: I would suggest not Garmin Base Camp application but using Garmin Explore to create off bike waypoints and routes that will be transferred into the XT via Garmin Drive application. The benefit is using your smart phone during a trip or before trip coffee break--set your route or route waypoints that will become transferred to your XT when returning to bike and powering up the XT. Base Camp application is not usable on the road with your smartphone. Just my thoughts. Your XT has icon under “where to” then “explore” to aid syncing of data if necessary and viewing/selection of waypoints and routes. 🤔

@dennism665 2 года назад

Interesting. I find Trio Planner to be very good, and use it both on the bike and off, frequently instead of BaseCamp. Haven’t tried your Garmin Explore method. Thanks. I’ll try it.

Farkles, I don’t like them, but most motorcyclist do. Your “typical” Winger looks like a Shriner’s parade. If you need wind deflectors, buy a Civic. If you can’t sit on an OEM seat, buy a Buick. I’m riding my 3rd Wing. I love the bike, but I’m embarrassed by Wingers who feel the need to attach fuzzy animals and all manner of weird crap to their bikes.

@danaszalajeski4416 2 года назад

@Peter Conway Not every person is the same and not every person has the same tolerances as you. I ride year-round. I've ridden in temperatures as low as 17*F. Having proper wind protection is essential for me. Plus not being beaten all day by wind blasting me in the head and chest is one less thing to become fatigued by on long trips. As for the seats, no one ass is the same. I, like many others, find the stock seat unbearable after an hour or so in the saddle. As for those that dress their rides up with more chrome, to each to their own. It's their money, they can do as they want with it. Ride your own ride, don't worry about everyone else does with their ride.

Missing Traxxion suspension. Honda still went cheap on the suspension, like last gen. A flagship bike that rides on a rubber shock bumb stop is not acceptable when they got so much right on the bike. Windshield, seat, suspension.

What do you mean Windex on your oem windshield can ruin it? you can use Windex on literally any surface

@NRALifeMbr 2 года назад

Absolutely not true on polycarbonate windshields. The Ammonia in windex breaks down the poly and will eventually cloud your windshield. It may not happen the first few times you use it but it will eventually. Most polycarb windshields are better served by using something like Plexus.

@danaszalajeski4416 2 года назад

@@NRALifeMbr With the F4 windscreen, and their protective coating they bake into the shield, most glass cleaners will not discolor the plastic. However, I personally do not purchase cleaners with ammonia in them as that chemical tends to react with other chemicals if your not paying attention.

Mr Cruiseman, I appreciate you and your videos to a point. I am not here to offend you or over compliment you. First about me; I've been riding motorcycles since I was 13 and I lifted my uncles 47 Indian Chief off the garage floor. I bought my cousin's 1965 Panhead when I was 16, he is a three tour Vietnam Veteran. Like many people I have lived by; ride, wrench repeat my whole life. I watch your videos occasionally because I appreciate the context, your delivery and knowledge. I first came to see your videos while I was a patient at my local VA Hospital. Please stop plugging your videos so much. Do you not realize, you have our attention and our desire for your knowledge. But you belittle us with that bombardment advertising. We are not as stupid as you seem to think we are. Put out your videos and keep up the good teachings. But cut out the arrogance, Please? You are in my prayers Hoka Hey

@cruisemansgarage 2 года назад

I completely understand your comments. However, my RU-vid stats show that 40% of the views on my videos are from non-subscribers, many who are seeing my content for the first time, so they have not had the "pleasure" of seeing me plug my maintenance videos. New Goldwing owners are coming onto the channel all the time. I will try to limit the amount of plugging in future videos.
