Nice cover. Mine is the 2022, and if I could make all the powder silver across the engine and transmission a matching blue to the rest of the cycle I would!
Well that was convenient Max. I agree the gold on black was hideous. I have a 2018 pearl white and my valve covers were just fine. Your tip over protection I received will look great. 😊
I don't like the covers from goldstrike. I'm led fan of goldstrike. I love my 2023 bagger honda red wine and engine covers. I don't like the 2024 gold ones.
Great news. Last year at a bike rally I had my bike washed and I guess the girls sprayed some brand of cleaner on my valve covers and it left nasty permanent water spots etched into the valve covers. It’s been bugging me ever since. Glad to see a cheap fix for my situation. Keep up the great informative vidoes.
I bought those covers for my bike, unfortunately they were not painted well, they just painted the chrome one’s and it didn’t stick well, began chipping and peeling after a couple thousand miles they looked horrible and I had to remove them.. lesson learned and $110 wasted. Just so you know, beware of the quality.
They look great! One thought, though, they are attached using 3m dual locks that you stick to the cylinder heads. My cylinder heads run pretty hot – will the dual locks melt? Although I'm sure Goldstrike must've thought of that!
If Goldstrike is really smart they will make them in matte black to match the plastics around it. I hate the raw aluminum look on my 2018 Goldwing Tour

They should pay you a royalty for your convincing and somewhat graphic description of the color from the other video LOLOL

Have the black on my 23. Easy install and makes a nice difference.

Inexpensive and quick fix.
since when did the stock valve covers become ugly?
Awesome! Gotta get me some! I hate the bronze color on my 2024 does not match anything else on the bike. WTF Honda???
Good deal, Max. I never could figure out those gold valve covers either.
Will the adhesive dual lock tabs hold up to high heat temps from the motor and outside temps and not let the covers fall or fly off?
did this guy literally just pretend to take a crap on the engine? cause the valve covers are gold? Wow, its like women matching handbags and shoes…….

Is this a set or just a single side?
