This fuse block fits nicely on the left side (looking forward from the back) of the trunk. Still get 2 helmets in the trunk:fuse block 1.jpgDrill a couple of holes in the trunk for wiring access:Wiring Cleanup 1.jpgYou can see where I run the wire through to and out of the trunk. Add a relay that i...

Thanks again Red! To ensure the lights only come on with ignition on, where would be the best circuit to use. Also, using a fuse panel like the posted pic, any issues with seat interference. The one in the mounting pic looks different, and the square style seems to be a little bulky for that position.

Thanks, none listed and their available stays don't show the retainer. Sent email regarding, since I'm sure most salvage have them but don't pay them any mind.

Yes, that's the p/n I initially posted which is a discontinued part and not available.

Decided to order the rear retainer on Partzilla. Pretty sure I can make them fit properly with some modifying.
Guess I just thought someone out there would have a bad caliper that may have the retainer.
Thanks all.

Thanks for the link. The link is for the rear caliper which a different width and p/n 43112-445-631. Not sure why Honda would have different retainers, when a slight modification could have worked for both front and rear calipers.

Hello. Recently restoring my 85 Limited. Needs caliper kits, pads. When disassembling, found that one of the caliper bracket pad clips is missing. Part no. is 45112-MB9-871 RETAINER, FR. '84A '85A '85L. Can't find the clip anywhere. Would appreciate any help. Nothing wrong with caliper other than ru...

Need help. Fairly new to Goldwings. I have 85 Limited, restoring and need different saddlebag mounts, since current ones have been welded by a DIY welder. Will any 84-87 models fit without complications?

Thanks, although that's not facing away from the wheel but facing the wheel.
Picture worth a thousand words.

Confused! How can it be on inner diameter, but facing away from the wheel?

Need some help. Looking for replacement Saddle Mount bracket complete for my 85 LTD. As I am restoring want OEM equivalent. What years/models will fit the bill?

Trying to put on new tires for my 85 Limited. Tires have rotation direction but cannot seem to find a direction for the rims. Looked on spokes, edge but nothing. Just want to ensure previous owner had in fact had the tires put on correctly. Or don't they have them?
Can anyone help me out?

Thanks! Tried using Gun Wash and soft bristle brass dremel brush. Seems to get most of the silver paint off, at least so light passes through. Doesn't completely remove silver because the inside is all bumpy, assuming for refraction purposes. Should work though. Thanks to all.

Red, thanks so much. Really appreciate the help and the great pics.
Maybe you know, if I would run into problems, like warning lights if I convert markers and signals to LEDs, in addition to the LED auxiliary lights?

Thanks Red! Great options. Due to size restrictions, any suggestions or links to what you mean by fuse block? Don't want anything bulky.

Still looking for advice on wiring my auxiliary driving lights. Driving lights are LED. Plan on using relay to re-do wiring but need info on best approach for battery power. Prefer to source directly from fuse box if possible. Can't find a ACC fuse label in the fusebox.
Help!

Painted my '85 Limited edition last year. The Sunflash gold metalic YR126M code was readily availble, the brown metalic was as well. Attached are the colour codes I used:Brown Metallic Colour.jpgGold Metallic Colour.jpg I see the tint info states 82 Goldwing. How close are those colors to the OEM L...

Recently purchased Limited which had the aftermarket amber signals installed on the trunk. Like the concept of signals top and bottom but would like to convert the uppers to the OEM red on the corners but for signals. The OEM red corners have a reflector type paint. Is there any way to remove that r...

Wingman: Thanks for all the codes.
Noticed the single 1985 GL1200 Limited Sunflash gold metallic, YR126M. Any idea on the brown secondary code?

Looking to install new OEM grips on my 85 Limited. What your opinion of Three Bond 1521 to do the grips?
My experience with Three Bond products has shown good results. Adhesive claims don't mean much to me, since based on experience, they tend to be greatly exaggerated if not fraudulent.

Go to www.ceebaileys.com they talk about measuring Wing windshields. And other bikes. I bought one of there windshields 11 yrs ago for one of my BMWs. 4" taller than stock. Still using it. Twocams Realize this is an old post, and link goes to right place but nothing there about bike windshield...

Just bought another Goldwing. This time it's an 85 Limited which I want to restore. It runs fine, but definitely needs TLC since it hasn't been used since 2011. Anyway related to the trunk corner lights. My Limited had the amber lens, which is not factory, but do like the concept of the additional t...

I have 85 Limited that I want to remove the fairing. Just bought this bike and want to do some wiring fixes since not happy with some of the wiring previously done, nor do I know what some the extra wires are for. Some have been added to main harness and then they dead end, not even being used. Foll...

I to just purchased 85 Limited which needs some serious TLC. Runs well though. It has auxiliary lights installed which I need to rewire, as they do not work and was spliced into main harness with those blue splicers which I hate. They are unreliable and prone to failure. The fuse box is different th...

Thanks for the pics. I agree the left side is really hard. Think it may be a winter project, and much easier with component removed. Thought a person could always run an accessory with relay to the lights on toggle.
