Kuryakyn Louvered Transmission Cover 01-17 Honda GL1800 Chrome

Kuryakyn Louvered Transmission Cover – Chrome – 2001–2017 Honda GL1800 Gold Wing The transmission cover on a Gold Wing is one of those areas that sits right in plain sight and does nothing for the look of the bike in stock black trim. If the rest of your GL1800 is running chrome accents or you're building toward a cleaner, more finished appearance overall, this is an easy piece to sort out.The Kuryakyn Louvered Transmission Cover drops straight over the existing cover and converts it to chrome without any permanent modification. The louvered design adds some visual depth rather than just a flat chrome panel — it catches light differently and gives the mid-section of the bike a custom look that holds up under close inspection.The practical side is worth mentioning too. The dipstick access point stays fully usable with the cover in place, so checking your oil level doesn't mean pulling hardware off the bike every time. That's a small detail Kuryakyn got right that some covers in this category don't bother with.For Gold Wing owners replacing aged or pitting OEM chrome covers, this is a clean direct swap. For riders converting from black, it's a straightforward upgrade that makes an immediate difference in how that side of the engine presents.Fits 2001–2005 GL1800 and 2013–2016 F6B models.Features at a Glance Louvered Chrome Design — adds visual depth and custom styling to the mid-section of the bikeDipstick Access — check oil level without removing the coverDirect Fit Replacement — converts stock black covers to chrome or replaces aged OEM chromeNo Permanent Modification — installs over existing hardware without drilling or cuttingGL1800-Specific Fitment — designed for 2001–2005 GL1800 and 2013–2016 F6B modelsSpecification Part Number: KUR7366Color: ChromeType: Louvered ChromeFitment: 2001–2005 GL1800 | 2013–2016 GL1800B F6BDipstick Access: YesVehicle Fitment Honda Gold Wing GL1800 2001–2005 — 1832ccHonda Gold Wing F6B (GL1800B) 2013–2016 — 1832ccFrequently Asked Questions Do I need to remove this cover every time I check my oil?No — that's the point of the dipstick access feature.
