I'll be watching this thread because I bought a hand-held Cobra from Sierra but have not installed it yet.

Very interesting thread. I'll be watching to see how the test is going. Good luck. I hope to hear all about it at the gathering.

I have both the Vessel bits and the screwdrivers and wouldn't trade them for the world!

I wave to everyone I have time, and a spare hand to do so. I thought it was funny, a while back when I was taking a class to get my license, the instructor said "I wave to everyone on two wheels!" Guess he didn't care for trikes.

I wonder if he ever got it installed? Great write-up DenverWinger!

I found that pdf document on the 1200 DIY. http://www.sdb-e.com/TENSIONER/TENSIONER-REBUILD-JCS.pdf I did the 10 mm stud mod (mod #6, i think it seemed to be the easiest), with a little mod of my own mixed in. I drilled out the existing bearing from the back, with a drill bit just big enough to get...

I have given up on GPS units. I now use my IPhone with a TomTom app.

Which app? The GO Mobile one?

Congrats, now get out and ride! Once you get comfortable with your big bike, make it a point to enroll in an advanced rider course. I have been "reriding" (after a 30 year pause) for 8 years now and attended such a class last year. I am a GWRRA member, so I went to their class (ARC). There was lots ...

I just discovered that the PO installed H6M bulbs in the non-standard cornering lights he put in my 1999 Aspencade. If I wanted to go with an LED bulb replacement instead, what is a good one to buy?

I've only used them once, so far, but I had good luck at Babbitt's when I needed parts. Their pricing seems competitive, and shipping was quick. Wish they went back further than 2005. Just at Babbits and they went back to 1977 on Honda for parts, were you looking for something specific? No, but whe...

I didn't mean anything bad about Cyclemax, it just brings me to something I should be thinking about all of the time, "is this purchase the most practical use of my dollar?". Even though I reap the benefits of PRIME purchases, I very seldom purchase bike parts from them.

I put an E4 on the front about 6 months ago and did the rear a few weeks ago. There is a little noise when cornering, but not bad.

I had a similar issue with my 88 and it turned out on the top nut above the head bearing was just a little loose. Tightened it about 1 flat on the hex and it was rock solid again!

I like CycleMax, but, like you said, the shipping is pretty high, so I only use them when I have a relatively large number of items to order.

I finally, after a number of aftermarket add-ons to help the ride, bit the bullet and bought a new seat from the dealership. Got it for $225, which I thought was a great deal!

Welcome back. You will find a lot of smart folks here that can help with anything you encounter on your Wing.

3000 rpm should give you right at 67 mph

True!....at least one would think so

Might not be a bad idea to check all of the grounding connections, if you haven't already done so.

Congrats to you on your Wing! You have come to a great site to find out all things Wing from a huge amount of experts. As for the 30 year old.....good luck on that one
