I have done the embarrassing kill switch thing at a Light Parade.

We had been to a weekend ride-in in Georgia. Returning to Tennessee on a besutiful Autumn Sunday, the wife asked to see the Cherohalla Skyway. Of course, to get back North of Knoxville, we would then need to go up US129 "the Dragon". After the great ride up Cherohalla, we pulled into Deal's Gap. I ...

I am liking how the black one is half chrome, and the white one is half black. Also liking how they make for every quid that is spent on development, a fiver is cut from production sound so good, paint for starters.

Re: How to Check your oil: You're doing it WRONG!
Great quality vid WA.
"Are you doing it right" would be WAY better than "You're doing it WRONG" implying you are the only GoldWing owner who knows how to check the oil.
Probably would have more than 29 likes, or am I being British.

Re: Engine guards bent?
No idea who made the factory guards Doug, or who actually makes the aftermarket ones, I believe one is not superior to the other though, I fitted aftermarket guards to my last Aspencade because they were too tarnished and pitted. Since they changed the style in 1997 will the older versions even be ...

That is some more pretty pics of the 1500. Looks like we started riding Goldwings about the same time (39 years for me). I got my 1st one (79 GL1000) in 1980 and have had at least one of all the versions except the 1800. This is my current ride. IMG_1245 a.JPG Sat on my first Goldwing at a Wing dea...

Re: Tires and Brake Pads
For brake pads, I prefer the stock organic pads. They have been hard to beat for performance and I don't have to worry about them ruining the discs, like some metallic pads will do. The absolute best tire for a 1500 is the Austone( IMHO), but I've also had great results with the Bridgestone Excedra...

Re: Engine guards bent?
Your case guards are known as 98 style (1998>) Case guards on one of my 1500's, known as 88 style (1988>1997)
Change yours for 88 style, they are easy to get in the US I would imagine.
your guards are not bent, just classic Honda cheap as chips.Change yours for 88 style, they are easy to get in the US I would imagine.
