I'm sure it's here, but I can't find it...

Does Max's fork brace fit an airbag wing?


Thanks,


Lance

Very Nice. Max.

 

[Max McAllister]

When you see them in person, they are very substantial... not cheap thin metal.

You could hit a bird and not hurt them!

Sorry it took us sooooo long. But we are now happy with them.

No application for an airbag. We can fit them in the shop though.

Fair enough...

I saw the new Traxxion fork covers in Daytona. They look very well made and I would have bought a Traxxion fork brace and the fork covers on the spot if Traxxion would offer them in chrome. I really would like to buy a Traxxion fork brace, but a dull aluminum or a black finish just isn't good enough for me.

I see that Kury is now going to offer some sort of fork covers for there fork brace. Kury has a protype picture from the side in a ad in this months Wing World.

Hi Larry,

You must have gotten one of the first ones we shipped. Kury had been out for some time with no projected delivery date, and so we decided to make ours. By the time we had them ready people just wanted them badly and we didn't have time to make instructions!

We do have intstructions now.

Also, I am glad to announce the MUCH ANTICIPATED release of the new

TRAXXION FORK GUARDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry it took so long.

I have some pictures, but don't know how to post them. A little help please??? Either that or send me your email address, and I will send you a photo or two. My email is [email protected]


They are CNC Machined Billet Aluminum, and are anodized clear or black, depending on your taste. $99.95 per pair.

They are designed (as always was the intent) to fit in the front gap of the Traxxion Brace.

Instead of tightening the gaps equally, you will now tight the front completely, and then tighten the rear last. There should always be a gap in the rear when done.

How can we order these? Don't see them on the site...

How perfect does it have to get, before it is perfect?

Damn, it is a two wheeled piece of transportation. Made to ride in the elements and have fun. Yup, sun, heat, cold, wind, rain.

When does the search for Nirvana end?

I guess i just might be in the minority here. But my Wing is fine the way it is.

Nicely put Bulldog.

Re: It is an additional $200.00 to the package price

Here's another comment. I think it's a great big waste of money to 99% of the people that buy into this suspension upgrade. Most of these same people wouldn't know the difference if they just changed fork oil and placed new OEM springs in the bike from what Traxion does.

I guess everyone who has done the suspension upgrades and has reported the results here on this forum are wrong, huh Red? Maybe you should ride a Traxxion Wing before you make comments on the suspension upgrades, so at least you will know what you are talking about.

Not wrong just a little disserning. Just my opinion backed up with 23 thousand miles on a Goldwing with the Traxxion installed. I'd do it agin too.

Hmm...I thing I'd like to get a set.

 

[Max McAllister]

We should have some of the Kury's in stock by the end of this month, according to them. We have sold lots of their braces, and we have had lots of people ask for them, so I am glad they are making them.

We still sell the kury brace for those who like chrome. I just wasn't interested in doing chrome, particularly on aluminum, as I see the bashing people dish out on the internet when one of their chrome items go bad.

It isn't worth having our name trashed over bad plating.

Sorry they aren't on our site yet, they are hot off the press.

Re: How to tell if Traxxion is Installed

What can we look for to tell that the Traxxion package has been installed on a GL1800?

Until we come up with a sharp, OEM looking badge, you can do two things:

Under the chrome caliper covers is our "AK-20" sticker on the side of the bottom of the fork.

Also, if you look up into the rear of the bike with a flashlight, the spring on our shock is blue. Stock is black.

Mine did not come with any stickers or tags. Garry's Hobbie shop installed it. But all anyone needs is to ride it to tell. It makes little difference unless I sell it and that ain't going to happen anytime soon.

The improved rideability with Traxxion is absolutely awesome....whatever you value for your Wing, hopefully it is good for you. But Traxxion is the best piece of aftermarket equipment I have ever experienced...

...and I confess, I have wasted a lot of money on motto aftermarket junk for my bikes...

...Getting Max's forkbrace soon cause the chrome on my Kury brace is pealing faster than a banana on a monkey's hand

I will do the same if and when mine starts to flake off.
