Yup

A starter should last a very long time. Could be it needs reverse gears in which case it might not be such a bargain, a roll of the dice. The owner could simply have the starter replaced and get much more money for it???????

The four wire colors coincide with the dealer installed CB option.

If the pull to the left was there when you bought it then it was likely wrecked and something is bent. You will be lucky to get 10k miles out of the Stinkos.

Those three pipes on the left rear of engine carry manifold vacuum, no coolant involved.

What year and model do you have? If you don't have the radio fader knob/CB (lighted) switches on left bar then those wires are likely used for that (SE) option.

The connector socket is two position "T" shaped. Blk/Lt Grn wire is ignition feed and goes to top of "T" along with noise suppressor wire. Bottom of "T" is not used.

Simplest way to replace fork caps is off the bike. Have an assistant hold upright with upper extended and slider resting on floor. With appropriate socket, extension and ratchet bear straight down on cap compressing spring until touching upper threaded portion, then have assistant turn tube engaging...

Backfire through the intake on right side could be a crossed/misfiring plug wire. Plug wires are numbered 1,3 and 5 for right side front to back, check that they are correct. If correct there, although unlikely someone could have attached them wrong at the coils. Right coil is 1, center 3 and left 5...

i have an 88 goldwing 1500. hit a bump and lost right side of motor.have had alot of work done since to no avail. had new timing belts, pulse generators ,coils and plugs,had carbs rebuilt and seems i have no fuel going to one side of motor. could ecm be bad or bas be failing. at my wits end as well...

I started my bike up after she sat for the last month while I found her a fresh set of carbs. After some trouble getting the carb floats adjusted properly she started right up at a pretty high idle (2k-3k rpms). I would have busted out the sync to get the idle rpm down but I'm pretty sure she spray...

What is the mileage on the machine and did this problem suddenly appear, any events/work precede this condition?

Unfortunately the issue still is not resolved. Not sure where to go from here. I cannot get it started unless it is above 64 degrees. Normally I can turn on the key, see all lights on the dash flash, push down then choke and then I am able to turn it over with no issue. If it is below 65 degrees, I...

Also remove, check and reinstall the ECU connector. Because the real connector is inside the black connector, and it is sometimes found to be loose or disconnected.

I 2nd this check.

Am I correct in assuming it must have been running at some point in your possession to know the clutch and carbs were bad and doing this work before knowing if the engine ran? How much of this bike has been taken apart?

Stu Oltman if still around from Wing World magazine would probably know.

Easiest thing to do is set it up like an Interstate with a fill hose in right bag using hand/bicycle tire pump. :ugeek: http://partsfinder.onlinemicrofiche.com/cyclemax/showmodel.asp?Type=13&make=hondamc&a=214&b=71&c=0&d=1994%20GL1500I%20GOLD%20WING%20INTERSTATE%20SUSPENSION%20-%20REAR%20SHOCK%20ABS...

OEM parts? Generic chinlee kits can be hit or miss. Your float valve is probably not seating correctly more so if only the needles were replaced.

Here's a revolting development ...I was told last week by the Honda Motorcycle dealers in Modesto & Stockton CA that they are no longer doing any repair work of Goldwing 1500's. I ride a 1988 Goldwing 1500 that looks and performs like it's right off the showroom floor. I just had a set of Dunlop El...

To the right of battery is starter relay A, attached to it is a 30A fuse and holder. Inspect it for burning/heat giving it and the wiring a wiggle test for repeat symptoms.

Check the two 5A fuses hidden in a boot (cover) to the left of battery.

A very popular product in the industry is 3M weatherstrip adhesive "yellow glue".

Has anyone installed a zerk fitting IN the U-Joint? The splines are only a part of the issue w/a finger full of "Moly" being their answer. Easy to understand why there is no way to grease the U-Joint.. ($$).. pc If in that far it is easier to just replace the u-joint after 150-250k or more miles of...

I’m installing a DB Eectric 90 amp alternator after the stock alt failed on my 2000 SE. No installation instructions came with the new alt but it looks fairly straight forward and I’ve watched a couple YouTube vids of the process. Question: Is it necessary to add another 55 amp link to the dogbone ...

I have the battery hooked up to the tender, and hopefully I'll have time to try and start it up on Saturday. One of the guys that helped out has a brother with a Goldwing and he thinks it's the stator or possibly the fuse. How can I distinguish of it is the alternator or the stator? Thanks - Doug Y...
