2008 Gl1800 Pearl White, I'm going to buy myself the Baker trike wings for xmas, but can't decide, on a white trike, Clear or Lite Tint?

What is your opinion? Karen

[cavie]

clear unless you add some pinstriping.

Light tint... Clear will never stay unscratched..... you'll need to wax well also..... to make them easy to clean and not show as many dings.... you want them slick so stuff will fly by.... I also use a product called REJEX made for aircraft finishes.... twice a year application.. order online... http://www.rejex.com/ they also make other great products!!

[1800 06 Champion Trike]

I put all Baker Clear Wind Wings (mirrors, fairing and trike leg wings(larger then reg ones) on my white Champion when I bought it new in 2006.
Cann't tell they are on the trike and still look like brand new.

Mine is a 1999 model and the trike kit was installed in 2001. Unit has over 95K miles on it and the clear baker wings are still as nice as they were new. Mine does have the etching on it which makes it a little more difficult to clean. Love them though,

... by the way, NICE looking Trike!!

I installed all lite tinted, you can kind of see them in this picture.

I have light tint on mine. They are just dark enough to see that there is something there and not bump in to it. I think whatever you decide for you is what is best for you, after all it is your motorcycle.

I'd go with lite tint, kind of like smoke on the white. Sweet looking trike by the way ...

[kybigmac]

I vote tinted. That's one of the best looking trikes I've ever seen!

May be true about the older products that were acrylic. The newer products are made using the same polycarbonate and special coating as the F4 windshields.

Beautiful trike Karen, I thought you'd never find what you wanted but you did find a Motor Trike Razor so congrats, its very nice. I personally think the clear would look super clean and neat on your white trike, but the light tint would look good too. I vote for clear.

I vote smoke, clear you will be bumping into them, by the way thats a great looking trike.

My Pearl II is same model and color. I want SMOKE, but have not done them yet. Show us pics when you decide. RIDE SAFE

[Red Wing One]

I know you are looking at clear or light smoke, but I'm thinking that the dark smoke would look sharp!!!!!!!

[BigMac46]

I have a 97 GW1500se and I have the dark smoke on mine and I like them

[paws]

I think at least the light smoke - just to tie the dark colors of the seat and tires together to help with the overall flow of color.

Good luck - whatever you decide you're going to love that trike - it IS sharp!

I have had dark smoke on for so long I couldn't remember why I replaced my clear ones. One of the recent posts reminded me.... I kept hitting them. After replacing two pieces I decided to go dark so I'd notice them. It works I guess because I have not broken one since. I don't know if Missouri Charley was around when you joined TT Karen but he had a white trike with light purple trike wing. It really looked quite nice. Point is: any color other then clear will make a statement if you'd like one made...

BTW -- BEAUTIFUL TRIKE !!!!!

I like the light smoke for the same reason some of the others mentioned. Be sure and get the new generation wings when you decide on the color you will love them.
