Awesome Wing. I have a 2006 Goldwing Trike that lights up like a Christmas tree. Not quite as many add ons as yours. You inspired me with your Goldwing.
I'm enjoying this 2017 video very much. I'm 15 minutes into it so far, and I'll watch all the rest, just in sections. I am certain that you can ride any decent road with this '08 in wonderful comfort and with a complete sense of satisfaction!
Awesome Gold Wing Ray. I can see the love and dedication to the bike. From now own, every Gold Wing I see is going to remind me of yours, but they all will fall short. If they come close they're only trying to copy yours
I watched your whole video on how you equipped your machine and your trailer.. I am blown away! I remember back in the 80s, Kawasaki‘s six cylinder Turing machine had two alternators on it for a few years ..Have you ever analyzed the current draw on your system when you have your seat heaters on,Heated grips on,your driving lights, the radio or CD player, and if you’re charging cam/phones. I used to road race motorcycles.. I was in for 24 hour races with three other riders on one bike. A lot of times, Machines would show up at the races with very high current draw lights. Many of these machines with too much draw on the electrical system would end up burning out the alternator, voltage regulator, and killing the battery. When they would pull in for a pitstop a few hours after dark, the bikes would not even start again. Some of them actually melted the wire harness.. i’m sure you have addressed this potential issue since you are professional mechanic/technician. I am just curious if you have ever had a situation where you were drawing too much out of the system for the alternator and battery to keep up? I remember the 80s four-cylinder gold wing‘s had an alternator issue. It was the electrical connector that was the weak link. Many riders that lit up their machines with assessor he’s would bypass the electrical connector and hard wire the alternator into the wire harness and eliminate that plug from the alternator that plugs into the wire harness. I must say, I am impressed. Do you do all of your own wrenching on your machine with the addition of accessories?
YES I DO ALL THE WORK ON ALL MY BIKES. I HAVE NOT HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE CHARGING SYSTEM AS OF YET, BUT I DO HAVE A NEW COMPU FIRE ALTERNATOR 150 AMP JUST IN CASE. I DO HAVE KURYAKYN VOLT GAUGE SO I CAN KEEP AN EYE ON THE CHARGING SYSTEM. SO FAR SO GOOD. THE LED LIGHTS HAVE VERY LITTLE DRAW ON THE CHARGING SYSTEM. THANKS FOR WATCHING AND COMMENTING PEACE
Raymond Maple thank you Mr. Maple. You have my respect as a mechanic. Or should I say an electro mechanical technician. I overlooked the fact that LED lights draw less current.Having been an electrician for years myself, I can appreciate your electrical work in those tight quarters. it looks as organized and as complicated as working on elevator controls... I was watching a video demonstration of the new generation gold wing’s. You will appreciate this. The alternator is also the starter on the newest gold wing‘s
David Akins THANKS IM GOING TO DO MORE TO IT OVER THE WINTER LIKE HYDRO DIP THE DASH AND THE REAR PANELS ANF IM GOING TO REVAMP THE STEREO SYSTEM WITH A 6 CHANNEL JL AUDIO AMP SUB IN THE TRAILER ANF AND A BETTER SUB IN THE TRUNK ILL KEEP YOU GUYS POSTED
Unbelievable bro! End of video night shot BEST! If they don’t see you-they be straight up BLIND! Btw..your an excellent rider! If you ride out to Wing-ding 42 I wouldn’t mine hooking up with you, but doubt I could endure long distances you ride! NY Mike...over & out.
Still looking good dude. Getting me all jealous again. Haven’t got one on the road yet. Bought a 99 gold wing. Pretty roaches out but all late 90’s &early 00’s are interchangeable. So she’s in a million bits. Powder coating everything. Loads at the chromer’s. Waiting on tins and plastic to come back. Deep deep plum with pearls and flake. Purple fire effect from front fender to rear. Smoky skull on the tank. Looking at tech for helmet and gadgets. Pics when it’s done. Coming over next summer, would be honoured to ride with you if possible. Keep it real brother. ✌️🤘
BAD-BOY 1561 NOT A PROBLEM WHEN I DO THE STEREO UPGRADES THIS WINTER I WILL DO A VIDEO FOR IT WITH A COMPLETE VIDEO NO SUBS OR AMPS WILL BE IN MY SADDLE BAGS AND ONLY HALF OF MY TRUNK WILL BE USED FOR THE TRUNK MOUNTED SUB PLEASE STAY TUNED IT WILL BE WORTH IT OH AND DID I MENTION IT WILL LOOK PROFESSIONALLY DONE BY ME THANKS
To be honest, I wasn’t overly impressed at first and nodded off halfway through the vid, but I’m sure glad I played it to the end... the way it looks when it’s all lit up at night is awesome! It’s a lot, but looks great!!
Bass Player YEA I SAID THE SAME THING ABOUT TRAILERS UNTIL I GOT THIS ONE IT HAS SO MANY PURPOSES TO CARRY JUST ABOUT ANYTHING WHEN YOU ARE ON A LONG TRIP. AND CAN YOU BELIVE THE GOLDWING BURN THE SAME AMOUNT OF GAS PULLING A TRAILER OR NOT I CANT EXPLAIN THIS THANKS FOR WATCHING
My man Ray!! Many thanks for the shoutout and the breakdown of your Wing. It is absolutely stunning, and I can see why you call it your "Too envious Goldwing". As I told you when we spoke, I have had two Wings, and am really tempted to trade in my BMW on a leftover 2016. (I miss having a Goldwing) The one I'm looking at is also black (The only color to get!!). Hit me up if you end up coming to the 'Burg on Sunday. My daughter will be in town from NYC, but I'll definitely find time to say hello and maybe we could grab lunch somewhere. Look forward to riding to Buffalo one of these Saturdays or Sundays as well, and buying you lunch. Would love to check out the Burgman when I'm there. Safe riding my friend. Look forward to seeing you soon.
Mark Cohen MARK THANKS FOR WATCHING IM GOING TO COME THERE THIS SUNDAY IF I HAVE TO RIDE BY MYSELF I TALKED TO MY 2 OTHER RIDING BUDDIES IF YOU ARE BUSY IT WILL BE A GREAT APPRECIATION JUST TO MEET YOU MY FRIEND KEEP IN TOUCH UNTIL LATER BESAFE
As of today, the weather looks perfect for Sunday! Again Ray, even though my daughter is visiting, I'll find time to at least make a formal introduction and see your stunning companion.... the "Too Envious Goldwing"! (I'm still drooling over it, and you're absolutely right....you can NEVER have enough lights to be seen!) Also Ray, shoot me a text on your cell phone so I have your mobile number. Have a great week my friend. Look forward to seeing you Sunday.
Thk Bra Ray, I ride a Honda BTX1300r dressed like a HD street glide. Looking to move up to ride longer distance to see my son n college. Love your videos keep doing what you doing brother and ride safe. All praise to the most high.
Earnest Markham THANKS I HAVE NOT MADE ANY VIDEOS LATELY OUR RIDING SEASON IS OVER I HAVE THINGS IN THE WORKS KEEP AN OPEN EYE IN 2018 ITS GOING TO BE REAL
Nice video Mr. Maple, best Goldwing vid. information that I've seen yet. I'm looking to get a Goldwing in the next few months. One thing if you aren't aware some of the things you are showing can't be seen on camera, also the sound get muffled at times. Keep the info coming.
Loving the detailed descriptions there, Ray! We have the same sentiments about visibility and durability. My GL1800 is a 2010, and I treat it like it's my forever GOLDWING. I ride to Virginia Beach last weekend, a 690 miles round trip. Rode some of those dark Virginia highways and I was lit up like a Christmas tree. Another thing is I light up the areas to the side so I can look 👀 out for Deers and other wildlife crossing the roadway in the dark. You give me some excellent ideas for future upgrades. Ride safely, my brother!
GHOST RIDER GOLDWING MOTORCYCLE HEY I MENTION YOU IN THE VIDEO IT IS MY SHOUTOUT TO YOU I THINK I SAID YOUR NAME WRONG IF SO SORRY ABOUT THAT I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN ABOUT THE DARK HIGHWAYS IN P.A. AND IN WEST VIRGINIA KEEP IT LIGHTED UP AND VISIBLE BE SEEN AT ALL TIMES PEACE
Awesome Bike Ray! I'm in the D.C. Area and would love to ride with you guys on day. Also, I will be hitting you up for some ideas on lights for my 2012 Goldwing. Great Video Brother!
Angelo Westfield THANKS FOR THE COMPLEMENT I WAS IN DC IN JULY WAS DRIVING MY CAR WENT TO THE AFRICAN AMERICAN MUSEUM BUT COULD NOT GET IN MAYBE NEXT TIME LOL
Nice video Mr. Maple, good information. I'm looking to get a Goldwing in the next few months. I'm looking for 2006 to 2009. I don't know if you are aware some things you show is not on camera, but keep the vids coming.
I LIKE THE STYLE BROTHER ,, JUST LIKE YOU I REFUSE TO HAVE MY SADDLEBAGS TAKEN UP WITH AMPS AND THINGS ALSO ,, I LIKE CARRYING EVERYTHING I THINK I MIGHT NEED WHEN I TAKE MY WING WANG (F6B) ON A TRIP .. BUT MINE IS STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS BUT I LOVE IT TO DEF !! KEEP ON KEEPIN ON MY BROTHER ..AGAIN I LOVED THE VIDEO !!
Raymond, your bike and trailer is on point! You know your stuff, enlighten and willing to share. Question Raymond: Where did you find the lights that you have on the side along your transmission cover? I know you buy all Kuryakyn are they from there as well? What's the name of them and do you have a part number for them. Take care my brother.
Love the bike man! What is the model of that Bluetooth audio device that plugged into the stereo system for your phone? My wing has CD contolls also but no CD player so I never use those buttons.
Hoping they have stock. The only thing I wish they supplied are the passenger handlebars, the grips on the side of the seat. After so many years, they lose their luster ... I think they're going to stand out against a nice new seat. If anyone knows of a treatment or wrap that can be applied to refinish them, I'm open to suggestions.
chuck luke ULTIMATE DOES MAKE A SEAT THAT IS ALL BLACK THIS SEAT YOU CAN BUY AND TRY IT OUT IF YOU DONT LIKE IT YOU CAN SEND IT BACK YOU DONT HAVE TO GET IT WITH THE ULTIMATE INLAY AS FOR THE PASSENGER GRAB HANDLES DON'T KNOW WHO WILL REWRAP OR A ITEM THAT CAN RESTORE LUSTER TO THEM
i placed my order confirmation today and expect in 2 weeks. You're right, it's a healthy price tag but everything i've heard and read about this seat so far is 100% positive. Thank goodness they had a Toronto distributor, or i'd be paying custom import fees. Thanks for posting this video.
One more thing Ray. You might already know about it.. There is a Friday 13th ride coming up in October.. Every Friday the 13th there is a sea of Black and Chrome where tens of thousands of riders come in from all over to Port Dover Ontario Canada. Weather permitting, it would be nice to see your ride come up for a show and visit.
The Night Rider gwr THE TIRE BUDDY IS TO CHECK YOUR TIRES TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE NOT LOW ON AIR OR FLAT. I CHECKED MY TIRE AIR PRESSURE THE NIGHT BEFORE AND I USE IT TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE NOT FLAT THANKS FOR WATCHING
Earnest Markham THE ONLY KNOW PLOBLEM I K NOW OF IS THE SWITCHES STICK LIKE THE FOG LIGHT, 4WAY AND SOMETIMES THE REVERSE SWITCH. THIS IS BECAUSE HONDA USE A HEAVY GREASE WHEN SWITCHES ARE MADE AND IT ONLY HAPPEN WHEN IT'S COLD OUT LOKE 30 DEGREES. SWITCH CAN BE TAKEN APART CLEANED AND REASSEMBLE WITH A LIGHTER GREASE TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM THE HE IS THE BEST TOURING BIKE EVER MADE AND IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO DEBATE THIS THANKS FOR THE COMMENT
Tim Chapman THE SEAT CAME FROM A PLACE CALLED ULTIMATESEATS.COM THEY HAVE A LOCATION IN FLORIDA AND TORONTO CANADA THIS IS THE BEST PURCHASE ON MY WING THANKS FOR ASKING PEACE
Yo bru this is Philly D I was watching the video about all the stuff you have put on your bike and I'm about to purchase an ultimate seat did you really mean it when you said that was the best purchase by far on your bike and that you could do at least a thousand miles on it with no problemjust wanted to know before I make that purchase brother that's all thanks.
YES IF I BOUGHT ANOTHER WING THE ULTIMATE SEAT WOULD BE THE FIRST UPGRADE I WOULD BUY. THIS SEAT ALLOWS ME TO BE ABLE TO DO 1,000 MILE TRIPS IN A DAY. A UA-cam SUBSCRIBER TO MY CHANNEL JUST PURCHASED ONE ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND HE'S AMAZED OF THE COMFORT OF THE ULTIMATE SEAT. IT'S A EXPENSIVE SEAT BUT YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. THANKS FOR WATCHING AND COMMENTING
@@raymondmaple2230 okay brother I will I almost pulled the trigger on a Russell day long seat but when I thought about it it would have been about the same price just for the driver seat and the backrest whereas with the ultimate see you get everything driver passenger everything.
I have a question Ray! Nice bike!! But with the subwoofer in your truck. Where do you hold or keep your Helmets at? In those cases when you go to the store or maybe a day you mite ride with no helmet ((squid ))...
ICY MIKE STEEL THERE ARE HELMET HOLDERS UNDER THE TRUNK OF GOLDWINGS I ADDED THE HELMET EXTENDERS THAT GO THROUGH THE HELMET STRAP AND THEY HAND FROM UNDER THE TRUNK OF MY WING I DONT DO THIS MUCH WHILE RIDING DUE TO IT SCRATCHES THE BIKE OF I STRAP HELMET TO MY REAR SEAT THANKS FOR THE QUESTION
Raymond Maple Yea I know about the helmets holder under the trunk but I was told you don't wanna ride with them in that area of the bike when you riding. And also I am a Gwing owner and there are up grade I do wanna have but I'm afraid it will leave me no room to put away my helmets. But there are other options on locking down you helmets. Hey! And I've also looked in on the King seats. I'm definitely gonna purchase on for my 2008 gl 1800 goldwing. And just like yours it does have all the bells and whistles ((No base model here))... if you have a FB Page let me kno and I will send out a request. .. thx bro bro!!
ICY MIKE STEEL SORRY I DON'T HAVE A FACEBOOK PAGE I DELETED IT DUDE YOU WILL NOT REGRET THE PURCHASE OF THE ULTIMATE SEAT IT IS A AWESOME SEAT I USUALLY DON'T RIDE WITH MY HELMET UNDER THE TRUNK BUT I DID ONCE IT SCRATCHED MY WING SO I ONLY DO IT IN THOSE INSTANCES ONLY WHEN I HAVE TO THANKS FOR THE RESPONSE BACK
My only suggestion is that maybe there could be another person with the camera and then you could be there just providing the commentary. You especially need help on the very fine or up close shots. It was either too dark or shakey to really get the prime shots. Just my suggestions, please don't take this as a negative comment please. I've watched many of your V-Logs and enjoy them very much. Thanks for your hard work!!
I Love the video my brother, I wish I could you to hook me up with hitch for the trailer and hook up me some lights on the bike. You are just far away my brother. I'm in The Big D. DALLAS, TX so its just a little tough coming up that way.
Raymond Maple I'm taking off work for 6 months and I'm going to touring on the new Wing. My NFL pension is kicking in and all I'm going to is go to the mailbox. After Wingding40 I'm coming Manhattan to visit my brother.
Raymond Maple My brother I do not mean to bug you. But, where can I found the front speakers w/the red lights for your dash. Do you have a name and part number? Thanks brother.
Michael Pineda NOT SURE WHAT MATERIAL THE SEAT REAR BACK OR SEAT BASE IS MADE OF ALL I KNOW IT'S A WELL MADE SEAT PLEASE CONTACT ULTIMATE SEATS JUST GOOGLE THEM PEACE
Ray, my man, the phrase is 'no holds barred', and it comes from wrestling contests in which no holds were against the rules. Porn films have changed it slightly to 'no holes barred', and it means that a woman is about to have all of her orifices filled. I think we now know what you do with your spare time when you aren't cleaning that bike. :)
i only watched a portion of you video as your camera work is all over the place mate cannot focus you know the bike i dont check your own video then check someone elses so no matter what you tell me if i cant see it i am not listening sorry mate but do try again
it is one of the most beautiful customized bikes I've ever seen in a long time, congrats bro!!! great job!!!

So she’s in a million bits. Powder coating everything. Loads at the chromer’s. Waiting on tins and plastic to come back. Deep deep plum with pearls and flake. Purple fire effect from front fender to rear. Smoky skull on the tank. Looking at tech for helmet and gadgets.

My man Ray!! Many thanks for the shoutout and the breakdown of your Wing. It is absolutely stunning, and I can see why you call it your "Too envious Goldwing". As I told you when we spoke, I have had two Wings, and am really tempted to trade in my BMW on a leftover 2016.

Loving the detailed descriptions there, Ray! We have the same sentiments about visibility and durability. My GL1800 is a 2010, and I treat it like it's my forever GOLDWING. I ride to Virginia Beach last weekend, a 690 miles round trip. Rode some of those dark Virginia highways and I was lit up like a Christmas tree.
Another thing is I light up the areas to the side so I can look 👀 out for Deers and other wildlife crossing the roadway in the dark.
You give me some excellent ideas for future upgrades.
Ride safely, my brother!

Hoping they have stock. The only thing I wish they supplied are the passenger handlebars, the grips on the side of the seat. After so many years, they lose their luster ...

Nice Bike man.
Samuel Rushing THANKS
Nice Job my brother, thanks
Ace Burns MAN THANKS A MILLION GLAD YOU ENJOYED IT THANKS
Wow like your motorcycle sir
Man that is a great looking machine. Where did you say you ordered that seat from ?
Tim Chapman THE SEAT CAME FROM A PLACE CALLED ULTIMATESEATS.COM THEY HAVE A LOCATION IN FLORIDA AND TORONTO CANADA THIS IS THE BEST PURCHASE ON MY WING THANKS FOR ASKING PEACE
Yo bru this is Philly D I was watching the video about all the stuff you have put on your bike and I'm about to purchase an ultimate seat did you really mean it when you said that was the best purchase by far on your bike and that you could do at least a thousand miles on it with no problemjust wanted to know before I make that purchase brother that's all thanks.
YES IF I BOUGHT ANOTHER WING THE ULTIMATE SEAT WOULD BE THE FIRST UPGRADE I WOULD BUY. THIS SEAT ALLOWS ME TO BE ABLE TO DO 1,000 MILE TRIPS IN A DAY. A UA-cam SUBSCRIBER TO MY CHANNEL JUST PURCHASED ONE ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND HE'S AMAZED OF THE COMFORT OF THE ULTIMATE SEAT. IT'S A EXPENSIVE SEAT BUT YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. THANKS FOR WATCHING AND COMMENTING
@@raymondmaple2230 thanks for taking the time to reply brother it means a lot also mines will be here today .👍
@@philly.d6489 JUST LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK OF THE SEAT. I BET YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. LOL
@@raymondmaple2230 okay brother I will I almost pulled the trigger on a Russell day long seat but when I thought about it it would have been about the same price just for the driver seat and the backrest whereas with the ultimate see you get everything driver passenger everything.
Ray I hope you don't mind me asking; how much $ you got invested?
I STOPPED COUNTING AT $54,000 ON MY WING WITH THE TRAILER
I have a question Ray! Nice bike!! But with the subwoofer in your truck. Where do you hold or keep your Helmets at? In those cases when you go to the store or maybe a day you mite ride with no helmet ((squid ))...
ICY MIKE STEEL THERE ARE HELMET HOLDERS UNDER THE TRUNK OF GOLDWINGS I ADDED THE HELMET EXTENDERS THAT GO THROUGH THE HELMET STRAP AND THEY HAND FROM UNDER THE TRUNK OF MY WING I DONT DO THIS MUCH WHILE RIDING DUE TO IT SCRATCHES THE BIKE OF I STRAP HELMET TO MY REAR SEAT THANKS FOR THE QUESTION
Raymond Maple Yea I know about the helmets holder under the trunk but I was told you don't wanna ride with them in that area of the bike when you riding. And also I am a Gwing owner and there are up grade I do wanna have but I'm afraid it will leave me no room to put away my helmets. But there are other options on locking down you helmets. Hey! And I've also looked in on the King seats. I'm definitely gonna purchase on for my 2008 gl 1800 goldwing. And just like yours it does have all the bells and whistles ((No base model here))... if you have a FB Page let me kno and I will send out a request. .. thx bro bro!!
ICY MIKE STEEL SORRY I DON'T HAVE A FACEBOOK PAGE I DELETED IT DUDE YOU WILL NOT REGRET THE PURCHASE OF THE ULTIMATE SEAT IT IS A AWESOME SEAT I USUALLY DON'T RIDE WITH MY HELMET UNDER THE TRUNK BUT I DID ONCE IT SCRATCHED MY WING SO I ONLY DO IT IN THOSE INSTANCES ONLY WHEN I HAVE TO THANKS FOR THE RESPONSE BACK
My only suggestion is that maybe there could be another person with the camera and then you could be there just providing the commentary. You especially need help on the very fine or up close shots. It was either too dark or shakey to really get the prime shots. Just my suggestions, please don't take this as a negative comment please. I've watched many of your V-Logs and enjoy them very much. Thanks for your hard work!!
Alan Robison YEA THANKS GIR THAT THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME I USED THIS ELASTIC HEADBAND TO MOUNT MY CAMERA I DO NOT HAVE IT MASTERED QUIT YET THANKS

Nice bike but the filming and microphone needs lots of improvement.
YEA I KNOW MY FILMING HAS GOTTEN MUCH BETTER AND I USE A EXTERNAL MIC NOW. THANKS FOR WATCHING
That bike is worth more than everything I own lol
LOL
Ray, my man, the phrase is 'no holds barred', and it comes from wrestling contests in which no holds were against the rules. Porn films have changed it slightly to 'no holes barred', and it means that a woman is about to have all of her orifices filled. I think we now know what you do with your spare time when you aren't cleaning that bike. :)
David Daw WELL WE ALL HAVE BAGGAGE IN OUR CLOSETS IJS LOL PEACE
Sorry for the thumbs down! A lot of things that you were talking about weren't on camera! Frustrating! Otherwise, beautiful bike!
