My right mirror was ripped off at a crash recently . I repaired it by filling the holes with a MEK/ABS mixture and put the screws back in. A few days later all was
hardened out and since then works flawlessly. Do not over think things please, most of the times the simple solution works best........

I had the same thing when i just bought my '94. The hose clamp at the thermostat housing was loose. All it took (after a long time searching) was retightening the clamp............................

Iv'e used ABS 'shavings' and MEK in wich the ABS melts and together it forms a ABS glue. This worked very good for my repairs last winter; almost all fixing points of the fairing were cracked or damaged in years of riding bad roads, but all is well now

I think your holes were incorrect, not the M7 bolts that were delivered with the brace. Mine was perfect with the M7 bolts...........

You're welcome Erdeniz, have fun with it!!

No, they are not the same.

That thought crossedmy mind too, but it's made for boats and outdoor use. Plus, while i'm driving not much water can come in. As a bonus for me, my bike is resting indoors and usually doesn't get wet. When it does i'm on vacation or on a tour with friends who are all afraid of riding in the wet :lol...

Installed the latch and it works out of the box with only a tiny bit of vertical movement!

I wouldn't take a chance on this one. The GL1500 is not listed as a bike on wich this part would fit on partzilla, so for me that's a no go

So far so good. Interested for your experiences with the Nokian.....

I've ordered this lock, going to make it fit in the right pocket cover. I'll be back!

Well there were some tiny springs coming loose, so i highly doubt the lock is ever going to work again...................
Dripped a few drops of gear oil in it, but so far; nothing

The lock of my fuel hatch is broken. I've replaced it for the lock from the right pocket, but now i don't have a working lock over there ofcourse. Is there a known solution for this problem? I am not looking for a replacement lock as it would require a new key too. Simple solutions often work the be...

Ik Am starting tot think It has something tot do with my LED headlights or the 'ballasts' of Them....

I've done it once, after the same mistake. Made a long pick from a piece of steel and eventually managed to open the saddlebag. A pita? You bet it was, but it is doable...................

I too have a reception issue and it's intermittend....... Bought a new radio the other day and have installed it with new sspeaker wires etc. Only the power is connected to the old cables. I noticed a bad reception earlier on the old radio of the '94 SE i have and thought it was the age of the radio...

You did synchronise the carbs, did you? I know that the earlier year models had an issue with the carbs regarding idle and surging, maybe make a search on the sit in that direction?

Try to take a look in the HowTo section, i seem to remember that there is mention about the float and workarounds

Personally i would use the existing wires as i am not using the old radio 3ver again, but you can opt for new wiring too offcourse. I think it’s what you want for yourself....

If you think the shifter pivot is too expensive for your taste you can always produce one for yourself. I did it and am using it for 20000km without problems.

It's either the wheel or the complete top including all equipment that is on top of your fender..... I would take the wheel out, less work..... And easier acces!

When i did mine, the shifter didn't clesr the frame either. I grinded it down so it would fit the next time.
I made a shifter pivot myself btw

I'm also very interested in the blank panel! My radio has died, so looking for a panel that fits and fit it does by the look of it!

We (my wife and i) have been thinking what to do; buy a 'new' GL1800, or another bike. I must confess i really dislike the 1800's appearance and its fairly cramped seating position (for me) so the choice was made to keep the old lady for a while and invest some coin in to it. Below the result and i ...
