I got an email from the local GWRRA chapter in Maggie Valley, and he wanted to let me know that their "Wings Over the Smokies" event is happening just after our Gathering, for anyone who might be interested in staying in the area:

I bought one of these last week for my 1987 Gl1200I. Bought it online from Amazon, as I have Prime and the Amazon distribution center is in my local metropolitan area. Battery arrived DOA, and refused to accept a charge. Notified Amazon, they issued a full refund a couple of hours later and told me...

Anybody else experiencing (Temporarily Disabled) under the "Add Photos" section in their Photo Gallery?

Everyone is, because the "add photos" function is temporarily disabled until I can get it fixed.

Switch behind the tupperware on reverse handle mechanism is likely stuck or otherwise out-of-whack. Tupperware will have to come off to get to the switch to get it back "in-whack"... It's a fairly common failure point, and Cyclemax carries them in stock for exactly that reason. https://cyclemax.com...

Bad news. I just got off the phone with one of the sales reps at Universal Vintage Tire. The news is not good. He said they have 19 tires left in stock, and once they're gone, they're gone for good. He said the factory is no longer making them, and a quick check on the Austone (manufacturer) web sit...

I don't know, my keyboard works just fine.

I can't seem to find it anywhere either. I sent an email to Universal Vintage Tire, which is where I bought mine, to find out what's going on. I got this email back from Universal Vintage Tire today, when I sent them an email asking if they still had the Austone: Yes we do. We have it at $164.00 pe...

The sure-fire works first time and every time method I've decided I will now always use is to pull the boot back, push a screwdriver in to lift the back of the u-joint, then have my wife hold it there while I push the driveshaft into it from behind.

Mine was rubbing the fender on the top, on the left side. I heated it up with a heat gun a bit, pushed it out slightly, and problem solved. Did you have to remove the wheel to do this? I sure hope not. If not, where did you access the inner fender from with the heat gun? Nope. I removed the left sa...

After an exciting weekend of playing with the granddaughter it was time to get back to work on putting the 'Wing back together. As some of you followed in another post I was having issues with the shifter pivot brace. Thanks to Rockport Dave and wingdings for straightening me out and now I have the...

Thanks CWN! Those studs aren't misplaced - they're right in the tray where I put them when I took them off! I figured it was something that simple! Here's a photo of the old sub filter:

That's definitely not original. The Honda filter is black.

I put nothing but Avon tires on my 1100 and 1500 for many years and loved them. Last year I put an Austone Taxi tire on my rear, and it's amazing. The front is still an Avon. Highly recommend the Avon tires. The Dunlop Elite E4's have also gotten extremely, universally good reviews, although I haven...

I am coming up on needing new tires; haven't heard a lot of discussion about these Metzlers. The reviews of people that have purchased are mostly in the positive. Forum's thoughts and impressions. Thanks to all. Al in Kazoo I would highly recommend you NOT buy Metzeler tires for your Wing. Time and...

Like you, I wouldn't run it like that either. Fishing it out as described might be your best bet, failing that you'll need to split the case (if you worked on Lycomings you'll be familiar with that) - only you don't get to remove the jugs first, and there's a transmission in there, too. Fitting it b...

I use Mobil 1 High Mileage 10-40 in my 1500. Make sure it does NOT have friction modifiers. The bottom half of the circle on back is blank. The clutch doesn’t like the friction modifiers and will slip. Years ago I had a Honda dealer tell me Honda oil was Mobil 1 semi synthetic. I don’t know how tru...

I'm going to go with gas cap as well. The gas cap has two valves in it. Both of them are pressure relief valves that release when the pressure differential exceeds a certain amount. One of them is set so that when the pressure in the tank drops below a certain amount it lets outside air in, and the ...

Keep in mind that the human body is an EXCELLENT shield against high-frequency satellite radio signals. So keep the antenna as far away as possible from rider/passenger. The first time I put one on my bike, I put the antenna on the trunk and every time I had a passenger, they would block the signal ...

a friend of mine has a 30 year old goldwing, sundely he lost a cikinder working properly, can someone tell me what could be the problem?

What year/model bike is it?

Ok....some success (unless I am now delusional) 😮 Don't ask me why but I pulled over on the way home from work. Decided to see just how high the air suspension pushes the rear shocks and forks. Once fully extended I rode off and WHOAA that bumpiness was massively exaggerated and I am pretty sure it...

Be really careful using the light bulb technique. You could end up melting some insulation on the wires that are shorted. If it is blowing a 30 amp fuse, you can do a lot of damage in a very short period of time. Of course, that will help you find the short, you will be able to smell the plastic bu...

Heading up from S Fla on 3 mo trip in motor home, trailering trike any RV parks close by we have wanted to attend GWD event Thanks Maverick = )

The Lake Junaluska RV Campground is less than a mile away from the hotel.

I really appreciate the thorough review and video and it looks great! I am very interested in the Innovv K2, but have found some forums discussing a battery drain issue. Apparently when using 'park' mode, the battery drain is quite significant. We are planning a 3 week tour this summer including La...
