When I looked at my Wings C'stand, I wasn't too impressed with sheet metal for strength for what we're looking to do. Of course it's good for it current purpose. Shock absorbing needs to be factored in. Don't want hard shocks going through the frame to delicate, expensive or eventual unreplaceable i...

Thanks Ernie; It was easier then I thought, I cleaned up the dust created by the brushes, the dust had gotten into and around the brushes and they were sticking. I reinstalled the atlernator and the bike is now charging. Cheers, Jerry Same thing happened to my 91 Wing. Dust blowing lasted a couple ...

Okay...I'll sacrifice my pride and ask the STUPID question............. Why hasn't a company invented a centerstand that works like an electric leveling jack on an RV..? . . . I'm thinking there would be one hell of a market for it. Don't TEMPT ME.....I'll do it, by golly..!! hahaha At $3,000+ for ...

Good morning all !! I have a 1998 GL1500SE and was wondering if anyone had tried a set of Iridium spark plugs in their Goldwing GL1500? They say that the Iridium plugs are for fuel injected engines but I am currently trying out a set in my 04 VTX1300 which is not injected. They do seem to work well...

Here in Florida, the county does it. My last wreck was from hitting that grass, at night, just after passing a car going the other direction, and on a curve. $5000 damage and a broken ankle and many scrapes, after being high sided. They don't care, its not them. I got repaired and healed up. My ins...

I believe discharging grass clippings on roadways is illegal in all States. Past couple years my rides in Wisconsin I seen residents doing it more often. One fair turn had fresh grass clippings & THE DUDE still mowing. I felt my tires lose traction but not entirely. Slowed down and as I passed THE D...

Yaaa, noisy I fig'd.
I ride 365 and winters I'm good to 4-6 inches. That tire could work.

Now for out-lander skis attached to...

So, why did you take it apart? What O rings did you need to replace? Did you see the pix I posted? During last Sundays ride we felt little sprinkles of water on our right legs. Jokingly I said some mouse took a pee but I kept an eye on the temp gauge. Seen the needle rise into uncharted terratory I...

People around here feed the deer, and they come down to the lake in droves - 30 to 40 at a time. Morons.

And I thought a herd of "box cars" was bad.

NO-no, not gonna be one of those, JUST a little info.
Has anyone, or know of someone, who tried this tire, below
pix, on their Wings (or comparable sized bike) front wheel?
It looks like it be noisy until it's broke-in a little. .

We're 1.25 miles from Lake Mich. and downtown Waukegan. Coyote started filtering in here several years ago. A couple years ago I seen this areas first wolf. :shock: Ya, a real wolf. MUCH more than usual raccoons, possums, skunks, squirrels, chipmunks... makes me wonder when were going to see zebra, ...

CANADA as you know is really strict. Be sure you're legal. Wing headlights being integrated is really difficult to change. Adding large lights out front, again difficult, space & design is restrictive. S.all round bullet lights are best choice by many, pointing where the main isn't. Let us know if y...

Pick up a pair of these.
No batteries, no dropped connections, no outside crossover chatter.
Here your mates actual voice and TONE of each blurted out adjective(s).
The better models you can hear heavy breathing... if you're into that.

Maybe I should insert the correct adjective... Anyone had this DASTARDLY pleasure? DASTARDLY .jpg . Replacing the 4 O-Rings IN the bike took 4 days. First 3 days were in that recent 95-SHEEESH degree heatwave with 200% humidity. :roll: Also triple checked all possible issues that would/could crop up...

Also, from what I've read you want to drain the oil as well before removing the pump. If not you are going to have a mess. I don't know if this is true because when I recently did mine I went ahead and drained both oil and coolant, but I was just going by the other threads I have read on the topic....

An old (hopefully wife discarded it) vinyl table cloth cover makes a DANDY Bike Bib.

YUP, same here, been there dun'dat.
Left choke on about 1/2 inch and hit the expressway... about 20 miles at 65 mph a couple times, no issues.
I use Iridium plugs which might make the difference with that Iitty-Bitty center electrode.

Whenever I brake, I scan the rear view mirrors for possible possibilities. After reading some'a y'alls Wig-Wag Brake lights experiences I started hand brake pre-flashing my intended stops. OH yah, there is a difference in the drivers behind me, they seem more attentive and/or back off. Since I usual...

Wing still running fine at 250,000+ miles, but it's having a Harley moment... oil leak. :roll: After trying different oil, the water pump is now weeping oil. :evil: I'm assuming it's the big O-Ring and have pump, the seals came with it, at the ready already if there's other issues. . Question is, wi...

NOOoooOOOO... that Jeep owner set them rims right. To protect the 'Good Side', he faced them inward.

Ok, I’ll take your guys word for it. What puzzles me is how you all knew I have E3’s on it! Thanks for the replies. I’ll just ride it.

Not many tires make that rather distinctive sound.

Just don't use the harbor freight fuses.

DITTOES!!!+!
I nearly lost my fuse box from those THIN blades not making solid contact.
JUST BE SURE they're snug.
Loose fit = poor contact = heat.

BUT through my situation you'll be glad to know the fuse box will withstand some heat.

You could almost camp in a pumpkin patch and no one will know you're there.

Looks really good! In a way I like that slight dull sheen of the vinyl.

I went through 2.5 years of wHELL to replace the trunks GOLDWING script. eBay prices were astoundingly high. OH sure, could have bought the whole trunk, as there were many there, but budget-budget-budget always held me back. YUP... 2.5 years took my watching & waiting for one to come along. Busted u...
