| John,
Welcome to the site and hope you enjoy it. I had a Majesty before my Swing and was glad I went to the SWing. I had the Majesty for 2 years and 12,500 miles and really liked it but the Swing is like a 600cc Majesty. I thought the Majesty was a very smooth bike and it did great for me and my wife, even in the mountains. What year Silver Wing did you buy?
If you have any questions you can do a search or just ask away. Things that are usually needed right away are a new screen and things like 'grip puppies' that slip over the existing grips to make them a bit bigger. The thin grips are kind of thin and may make your hands get cramped on long rides. Again, welcome.

| Welcome to the forum from another Floridian. You can get Grip Puppies at the link below. grip puppies And you will probably want mirror riser extenders see here. 10mm CNC Motorcycle Mirror Riser Extenders You may like to do this mod. The Leroy Beal backrest mod.
Then when you're ready to upgrade your windshield you'll want to check out the Givi Airflow. |
