More information as well as some pictures would not be unwelcome. Where you ordered and how much your costs were could be topics of welcome information. Being familiar with the J&M product, which I have on my GL1800, I would not be putting it under the CD player in the lower trunk. I had mine there...

Also, check the reverse cable adjustment.

Did you replace the battery or just try and charge it? If the voltage drops below 11 Volts during the starting operation you will not have any spark. New battery for sure.

Thanks for the reply. I am looking at the 14" wheel models. I like the idea of being able to remove the trike kit easily and still be able to ride normally. Perhaps in a year or two.

Do you know what model your friend had? I am not there yet, but am looking into options for the future.

I have weak legs from a stroke and ride a GL 1800. I have not been able to ride much in the year and a half since the stroke. I was planning to have Leg Up Landing Gear installed next month, but became concerned when my buddy did not see them at Wing Ding this year. Does anyone have recent experien...

Anyone ever use one of these add on trike kits? http://towpacusa.com/

You should be able to adjust the low pressure setting to eliminate that issue.

Change the timing belts as others have said, they are due. Don't wait.

Did you check your fuel pump?? Sounds like not getting enough fuel to keep up with the demand of the engine.

I have a Tire Gard TPMS on my ST1300, It works without any problems. Did have to replace batteries once. I had this unit on two gold wings before I bought my Garmin Zumo 390.

Check to see if your ignition fuse is blown..

If they are in the same location as the earlier 1800s, they are under the right engine side cover.

Has any one had success with the Garmin TPS? I just bought a Garmin 590 with the intention of adding the TPMS. But if no one has had any luck with them, I'm not wasting $70. I have a Zumo 390 that I have had on two bikes, both with TpMS without any problems other than having to change the sensor ba...

Check the coolant level. It shouldn't get hot with you come to a stop. If it is, you may have a thermostat or water pump problem. Do the fans come on?

Might want to check the water level in the battery too. If you need to add water use only pure water. No additives/ no sports drink.

FYI, don't know about your bike, but all of mine have sealed batteries in them. Suspect, most GW's do as well.

Check your battery connections and make sure your battery is fully charged. Also, check your kill switch. Make sure it is set to run.

If I want to clean my fuel system, I periodically put Half a Can of Seafoam in a tank of fuel and run it through, then add the rest of the can to the next fill up. I do this on all my bikes about twice per year.

Try justmotorcyclecovers.com They have good quality full and half covers that fit.

Thanks for info. I can not think of anything much more scary than blowing a tire. In my 50+ years of riding bikes of various sizes and models, I have never blown a tire yet. Having said that, there is probably not a tire manufacturer out there that has not had a defective tire at one time or anothe...

Can’t say if Avon redesigned the tire or not but I have had three sets of them all with good mileage and no problems with separations.

What model Avon tire do you have.

I have the Avon Cobra, have also used the Venom's over the years.

Bump..................

Bump.............................

I have about 12000 miles on my set of Avon's and you can hardly tell they are worn. I think the last front tire was changed with about 22K miles on it. Rears don't last as long. Think I changed the rear at about 16K. My rear got a nail in it and was patched, but I don't trust it on a long trip. So I...
