More Modifications

 

Corbin Master Type Saddle

I needed a lower seat and my wife wanted arm rests. I had a Corbin on my Honda Spirit and it took me comfortable through a Bun Burner 1500. I saw the seat at the Honda Homecoming and had to have it.

Tulsa Aerodynamic Wind Screen

My wife had severe buffeting. I was concerned about comments regarding mounting the motorcycle with the Tulsa Windshield, but all comments seemed to be favorable so I decided to go for it.

Kuryakyn Ergo Cruise Boards

I was used to forward controls and floorboards on my Honda Spirit. I needed some alternatives for placing my feet and these seemed to do the job.

Rivco Passenger Floorboard Risers

My wife is only 5'-0" and with the wide seat, her legs would not reach the passenger floorboards. Opting not to go the "black painted 2x4 tie wrapped to the floorboard" route as seen on a bike at the Honda Homecoming. I decided on the Rivco's. The look is not top notch, but I'm not sure any riser will be. However, give you an infinite number of positions.

Auxiliary Fuel Cell

When you need extra range or get the desire to compete, you might want to consider an auxiliary fuel cell.

Radar Detector Mount

Quick an easy removal.

 

Ram Mounts

The easy way to add mounts for GPS, Cell Phone, Camera Mount, and Cup Holder

PIAA Driving Lights

Look great and provides great fill in light.

Auxiliary Driving Lights

Could not stand looking at the "Snap-out" panel in the front cowl and figured extra lighting couldn't hurt.

Tulsa Wind Wings

I am not a big fan of the look of Wind Wings. The styling of the Tulsa Wings are more attractive that most wind wings. I purchased them to solve the passenger buffeting problem. The Tulsa Wings improve passenger comfort but do not solve the problem.

V&P Accessories Mirror Deflectors

This was the last step in eliminating passenger buffeting.

M&J Enterprises Beverage  Holder and Flag Pole

I wanted a drink holder I didn't like the ones that had proprietary mugs. I am a slob and it just would not have been sanitary. I settled for the Helping Hand.

September 11, 2001. My 51st birthday. Who will ever forget it. I will always carry a flag in remembrance of that day.

Mud Flap

The Honda Fender Extension was not protecting my cowling so I added the mud flap.

Garage Door Opener Button

I got tired of fumbling with the garage door opener. This little addition made things much easier.

Electric Apparel

A must for those long winter rides or unexpected cold fronts.

Honda Heated Grips

If you ride in the cold, you need these.

N-Line Trailer

For the times when you need extra cargo space

J&M Headsets

Seems that for the price of the bike and audio systems, you would get head sets, but you don't. Everyone has an opinion, but J&M is supposedly the best. For around $500 for a set of two, it looks like you would have headsets that have decent music capabilities. Not here, but a necessity for rider to passenger and rider to rider communication.

Deluxe Removable Saddlebag Liners

Open the driver's saddlebag and everything falls out. I also needed something that I could pull out and take with me.

Hondacare Protection Plan

4 year transferable extended warranty provides total warranty coverage for 7 years.
