This was a page originally written by Steve Saunders, but has been deleted on what used to be his old site. It's got valuable information in it, so I had a copy saved locally, and I'm posting it here now for others who may be searching for this information in future. Goldwing History By Steve Saunde...

First off: the GL1500 fuel pump does not have an issue losing prime. You can drain the tank dry, run the bike until it quits and there is zero fuel left in it, then fill the tank again, and the pump will operate, fill the carbs and the bike will start. Disclaimer: don't do this. It's not good to run...

Wow, what a mess. They obviously did that bodge job repair because you DO have to split the case in order to replace that shift shaft. It's part #16 below: H99GL1500A19.gif If it were me, not wanting to split the engine case, I'd probably just live with it as is. Without seeing a picture, I can't sa...

How often do you change your Mobil 1? Before storage, X miles or Date?

Daniel

I will usually change it every 3,000 - 4,000 miles, and always change it immediately before I put it away for the winter.

If it is an Aspencade, and it has round gauges, then it is an 82, not an 83. 82 Aspencades had Comstar wheels and round, analog gauges. No linked brakes. Air suspension controls were on the false tank. 83 Aspencades had eleven-spoke aluminum wheels and digital gauges. It had linked brakes, and air s...

Gas in oil is generally stuck floats. Sometimes a dose of Seafoam (one can in one tank of gas, run it for 15 minutes, let it sit overnight, then run through the entire tank) is enough to fix the problem. Otherwise you're looking at a little more in-depth carb work.

What a steal! I have the exact same seat on my bike, and it is the most comfortable seat I've ever ridden on - I've done 20+ hours straight on it before. They start at $1000 new and go up from there depending on options. Someone should grab this!

Sorry it's taken time to get back to you Scott, and thank you for the detailed reply. I find this kind of thing fascinating. The AT3035 is a very interesting Mic... It's more of a medium-diaphragm condenser at only 19mm diameter diaphragm (an electret too), but has a frequency response almost as fl...

Not just you. When this started I contacted the admin last year and they told me it would be fixed when the site is upgraded. I have tried everything as far as clearing cache and cookies, to allowing tracking and data collection. Another thing that started happening is my notification emails from t...

The battery cable that "leaked" solder has likely failed. When it starts to corrode internally, it creates a bit of resistance. Draw a large current (i.e. starter motor) through a resistor, it heats up. The more it heats up, the more resistance it offers. It can easily heat up to the point where it ...

Thanks, That is what I ended up ding last night. I determined that in order for the one piece to come out, I was going to have to take off the fairing and mounting frame. It was easier to bend them. Do you have a pic of where you mounted the horn? I posted a picture of it in this thread: https://go...

I bent mine out of the way:



I eventually decided this was a terrible place for those tabs (and the horns, so I bent them right off and painted over where they were. I re-mounted the horns inside the fairing lowers.

I thought I had a leak, through the plate on the rear of the engine now I am pretty sure that my oil is way overfilled, because it took so long to drain that I must not of drained it all, why does it take so long? I did it on the center stand as well. Is your engine warm before you drain the oil? I...

At home I normally use a large diaphragm condenser (decent ribbon mics are a little out of my price range!). This is an example of her recorded with one: https://www.hollyprather.com/samples/Christmas/15%20-%20Holly%20Prather%20-%20Darcy%20the%20Dragon.mp3 Wow Scott - is that ever clear - like chim...

But Honda o rings are mentioned in the parts book as 46x2 46 id or 46 od? A simple question that nobody has answered though you may have found that a 46x2 Honda o ring, according to JIS specs you provided, is 46 id x 2 cs. That means that it is 46 mm id, 50 mm od and a 2 cs. I guess I am going to h...

Subscribed. #46. Lovely voice, and very attractive lady. I would like to hear her studio recorded through a Large Diaphragm Condenser, although maybe a Ribbon mic would be more appropriate for both her voice, and the material she is singing.

Well, I tried, but not sure if I was successful. I tapped on the phone screen where it said Click to Subscribe. Not sure if it 'took'. I may have got bit by my primitive browser on my phone.

You actually have to click on the circle.

...totally unrelated to anything Goldwing related, apart from the fact that this is my wife, and it's my web site. :lol: I'm working on a new web site and YouTube channel for my wife's singing business. She's been singing in retirement homes, nursing homes, VA hospitals, etc. full-time now for over ...

So far, brake caliper rebuild kit from All Balls failed, the dust seal is too "fat". Gonna order OEM from PARTZILLA. Has anyone else used All Balls caliper rebuild kits successfully? Single carb conversion ordered. Used OEM carb set ordered. Gates timing belts, Fram oil filter, and NGK Iridium plug...

Unlike most digital screens used today, the signal sent to the screen from the bike's computer isn't in digital format, it's actually an analog video signal, that is reconstituted into an image by the screen panel circuitry. If the connection between the computer and screen gets disconnected, you ge...

With the Tall Tulsa on my GL1500, at 65 mph I can get right about 40 mpg. Anything above 65 mph, and mileage starts dropping off precipitously.

The tensioner spring sets the tension. Do Not push the tensioner tighter than the spring pressure or you'll get squeaky belts from too tight belts and possibly burn up the tensioner bearing. That might have been true 35 years ago when the bike was new, but those springs no longer have anywhere near...
