I bought an 1100 Wing a bit ago and just Love it . But now I've got a box full of junk for sale getting the Old Bird back to ..... well what works for me .
Trailer hitch no, device mounts no (the bike comes with GPS and even has apple play). XM radio no, handle bar risers maybe, light modulators yes, passenger armrest yes, motorcycle cover yes, CB radio maybe, helmet hat set yes, grips maybe, power plug maybe, belly pan no (I have 2021), luggage rack no for now but when I had my 2005 it was beautiful, trunk spoiler no, wider windshield maybe, fog light yes, and my bike came with it, drink holder yes, air deflector yes, back rest no, but I had on my 2005 and I liked it, high way pegs YES, but not floor boards for Goldwings. Good video.
Great informative video but you forgot rain suits. Some choices are not really for everyone like my choice is not for everyone. I live up North, in Canada and we have rain and cold weather. I average 20 000km/year (about 13 000 miles) and that rain suit has kept me dry and warm. It's a Scott rain suit (2 pieces), it breathes and is just the best, I paid 100$/piece.
The vulnerability of the coolant expansion tank on 2001-17 GL1800 is a minor issue. The tank is a minor cost issue. There is no aerodynamic effect of the belly pan. I know, I had one. But a belly pan on a 2018+ is another issue. The crankcase is very vulnerable.
The Show Chrome belly pan has no vents under the pan, so it gets hot and the bike feels like it's floating when I have the SuperBrace installed too! The Wingstuff belly pan has vents underneath, that might help with the aerodynamics and heat dissipation.
Great info but 43+ minutes is too long. You could have cut this video in half. Not by reducing the 20 suggested aftermarket parts but with less verbiage from Rick. I do appreciate your information and effort in describing the items but you’re just too long winded.
Very informative and gave me something to think about. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!

Nice...thanks for sharing!
My favorite items are for safety and comfort, such as: Heli Bars, lighting, Navigation, Headset, Charging accessory, Proper gear.
Yes, I agree. Safety and comfort are key. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks David!
Good info but could you add a list? The video doesn't have chapters and it's hard find the different items.
Thanks for the great suggestion, Alfred. We just added them!
@@WingStuffTV Awesome. That makes navigating this very long video so much easier.
Good stuff. Much appreciated.
Thanks, Rich!

Thanks for your insights, Pascal. Yes rain suits are important, I agree.

Thank you for your feedback, Gary. We'll keep that in mind.
