Roadwing shock is amazing!

[sycloneman]

I had the pleasure of meeting Jason (smokescreens) and have him install a Roadwing shock on my 06 Roadstar. It was a quick install and even more so because it turns out my bike has a lowering kit on it which helped with ease of install. I was not aware of this but would help explain he issues with bottoming out I have been having compared to my V-star 650. I am still tinkering with the RAP to see if I can live with the lowering kit. I may have to find a stock setup if I can’t. It’s only 1.5” but it’s enough to be cautious in turns.

Thanks again for for the quick and amazing work. Also for all the other information you shared.

Thanks!

He’s a pretty good guy. He’s really stepped up and stuck with the Roadwing thingie.

Yep Jason is one of the good ones and the Roadwing is a must on every R*.

I highly recommend the Race Tech Springs in front, set for your weight. I would also go for the Gold Valve emulators too, Everything I've read those will make a huge difference as well. Springs and an oil change are pretty easy and a perfect time to check out your neck bearings as well.

Sure works for my '01 and I have my Roadwing connected to my Flipped Relay Arm for a comfortable 1 1/2" lowered ride. and 15wt oil in the front.

I was looking on a Goldwing site a few days back and the discussion was about how their rear shock was underrated for the weight of the Goldwing

Thank you guys for the complements. I hope to continue helping people as time comtinues.

Im glad to hear youyou still love it. Did you take the lady for a ride yet?

[sycloneman]

Actually no. We’re going to Pine Knob tonight to see Zombie so we’ll see what she thinks.

I still need to install mine. Everyone says it’s easy, but I still refer to all the parts of my bike as thingys, dohickeys, and “that thing right there”. So, it might be a challenge for me.

You have a pretty fair amount of members in texas. Maybe they can help you out if you put it out there

Jason Woody AKA Smokescreens is a very close friend of mine and I love my Roadwings I’ve gotten from him as well. Jason seems to put people first. You won’t ever hear me complain about Jason.. glad you like your Roadwing set-up.

thank you jake. i do my best to get people the right stuff int the right time frame for a fair price and normally people are pretty happy with it.

im just mad that i cant still sell them for $150 like i did at the start. but after all i stopped counting after 300 shocks so pickings are a bit slimmer than before
