Since I started working at HeliBars nearly 6 years ago, I have gotten phone calls and emails weekly looking for a solution to make the Honda Goldwing Riding experience more comfortable. We have had a bike in house since 2007 and the design team has been diligently working trying to come up with the most affordable way to make the ‘Wing as comfortable as possible. The design was nearly complete in 2012 and then they had to figure out: how do we produce this masterpiece and make it affordable for the masses. (First prototype’s would have made the bars $3200!) So they went back to the drawing board and looked at production methods and TADA! They are done! First production units will be shipping out the door December 16th, 2013.
It’s been a long wait, yes, but it will be well worth the wait when those riders get their bars and can not only ride in superior comfort, as only the Goldwing can provide, but also with increased control & handling without having to change out the suspension.
Thanks for the patience, thanks for believing in us and enjoy the ride. We KNOW you are gonna love it!

Are you guys going to be at the 2014 Honda convention Wing Ding in Madison Wisconsin? Gold tWings from around the country! we’re traveling from Tucson Arizona to see you guys there.
Mark –
At this time we don’t have any plans to be at the Wing Ding although it isn’t entirely out of the question.
I have pre-ordered the limited edition bars and can’t wait to get them mounted and to have my riding posture corrected.
You really need to get the word out to the GL1800 owners. You should promote these through the Gold Wing Road Riders Assoc. They have a membership magazine, “Wing World”. http://www.gwrra.org
Thank Larry for the input. We are working hard to get them ready to ship to you!
Are you going to have bars available that will fit the GL-1500?
We have no plans at this time to produce something for the GL-1500.
