Normally when the grips don't heat neither will the seats heat as they are both in series on the same system

So the grips don't heat but the seat does?
That's a first.
What level 08 is it?

Have you tested the switch?

Is the ambient air below 65 degrees?

Recently acquired a gl 1200 aspencade I had never ridden a goldwing so have no comparison. I ride a 69 sportster and a 56 flh chopper. Honda’s transmission sounds very loud with high pitch whine under acceleration less on decell bike has 27k on it and runs fine ,it has fresh 20/50 motorcycle oil in...

Have you tightened the push in connectors yet? The round female connectors loosen up over the years and probably need a little crimping to tighten to the male pins.
You have a loosen connector somewhere from the intermittent working, not working you experienced.

^ that's a ridiculous response. Maybe that's the most you'd pay, but, in good condition, it's worth way more than $1500, no matter where you live. I gave a price of what I've seen them go for. Higher are asked and those set on the market a long time, on the east coast and the west coast. Plus no pi...

$1500 tops for the age and miles

Howdy and welcome to the forum. Did you test the Dyna S that it is operating properly? Depending on which version you have, there were some that had failure problems early on. I don't know to tell you how to test it. Did you get a repair manual for the bike? Have you looked at the How To section at ...

My Audi A8 was covered with less than an 1" of liquid from the spray bottle.
The paint is in excellent condition, so I'll guess this is less than a typical quantity.
I agree, the F11 does have a longevity issue.. pc

What size is that spray bottle?
How often does it need to be done??

Non to date in mc tires other than for HD police bikes and those are 16" on the fronts.

No Snell lid has an internal visor. They won't even test any. Shoei made one where they expanded the shell for it but Snell would not test it. Also if you install speakers it is no longer Snell certified. That's just the way it is, no parts allowed inside. But that's not the question. Can I have th...

Scott, another question... Does this helmet have an internal sunscreen? I know Aria makes visors but the sunscreen is on the exterior of the clear screen. How do I or can I use the exterior sunscreen with the clear screen in the up position? Like on a hot Ohio summer day, I need the clear screen up...

I don't have a GL1500, but on the GL1800 you don't press the buttons at the same time.

You press one at a time - UP, or DOWN, or MEMORY-1 or MEMORY-2.

The 1800 is not an air compressor. Totally different systems.

If nothing, change relays to test the relay.

In neutral and bike started up?

Good news! Glad you found it.

Welcome to the forum Phidr Pulling the mufflers off to clean them is a good idea. You shouldn't need to immerse them. The Honda chrome is pretty good. If it's surface rust, I've found that the Turtle wax chrome cleaner and polish with elbo grease works. But you could use clr in small amounts then ne...

Speaking of a shop manual, I just acquired a 1986 1200 and need a manual. Is one publisher better than another? Looking at a Haynes?

Honda manual is better.

As to wind noise, the first review of your scorpion helmet is poor noise reduction.

Get an Arai to fit your noggin. Unlike most helmet makers, Arai makes different shape helmets for different shaped noggins. You can't fit a helmet very well online.

Here you can see the 2 piece Windbender on my 1800. It has their shortest recurve top shield(I'm a short 5'10"), in the lowest setting for summer riding. They offer taller top screens for taller riders as you are. I think Madstad offers taller top screens also. Hmm. Just searched the Madstad site, l...

Thank you very much for your recommendations. My main concern is one of safety. I have never encountered this severe form of buffeting before on other bikes or anywhere. Thank you again. Howdy oldcase Looking at your profile, you had a gl1000 and a gs750? The GL1500 is a bigger machine to say the l...

According to the service manual the rotor bolts should be replaced After rotor removal and I may have over torqued them. The rotor bolts come with a special loctite already applied to the bolt. I questioned the price as well but I had to pay for the diagnostic time I still didn't agree because I to...

Here is a picture farther back, as requested. Howdy James I haven't been on in a while and saw this project notice in the monthly letter. I've had a bike that I had to work on for a friend last spring, in which that connector was burnt, which had other symptoms than yours, but must have a common li...

I bonded small nylon straps to the inner side of the pocket and to the inner side of the door. That way if the door was to ever come off, it doesn't depart the bike.

Great idea
