I use synthetic gear oil too (I use the Amsoil Severe Gear). I use a 60cc catheter-tip syringe (Amazon). Makes reaching "uphill" to access the gear oil fill chamber a snap; the larger tip on the end of the syringe administers the gear oil into the chamber easily. Also allows me to measure ...

Looking forward to the new year like never before.

Merry Christmas all.

Welcome to the forum.

Lots of good people here who will help you out. I've certainly learned a lot.

You'll love your new "Wing".

I've used the Pro Honda Spray Cleaner and Polish for years.
Works great, easy to use. 1 can lasts a long time. My Goldwing is a 2007; I still get compliments on how good the paint looks.

The way I see it, a motorcycle is cheaper than years of therapy, achieving far better results.

I tend to slow down initially (don't want to hit the dog) and then speed up to get away from it.

Glad you're OK. Agree with always wearing the helmet.

I'd replace it. Cheap insurance and peace of mind.

I'll add a question to this thread:

Do people tend to change their hoses at a certain point or do they just leave them until there's a leak? I have a 2007 Wing and it's been on my mind.

Got 20,000 miles out of my last set of E4's; put another set of E4's on the bike. Very happy with them.

I've been a nurse for 31 years and spend considerable time working in a COVID unit in a hospital. This isn't the first pandemic we've seen and sadly it won't be the last. No, PPE isn't perfect, but people who refuse to wear a mask are unknowingly contributing to how many cases we have in this countr...

Was riding through Zephyrhills, FL today and stopped at Just Wings, got to meet Goldwing Greg. This was the first time I've met someone on the Goldwing Docs forum in person. Had a good visit and learned a lot about the GL 1800's. If you need parts I bet Greg has them. I enjoyed getting to see the sh...

I like it!
Bet it gets up and goes.

I'm riding about the same amount this year. I typically ride by myself, making it easy to find a country road and "socially distance" from others. Would like to ride to work more but it's been pouring down late in the day this summer, making the trip home wet almost every day. I typically ...

I have a 2007 and live just over an hour from you. Agree that the Goldwing will shift more smoothly at certain RPM's (I've learned over time). I use Amsoil 10W40 and have had no problems, I've had good luck with full synthetics. The motorcycle definitely shifts more smoothly right after I change the...

My Sunpass is as well; you're allowed to assign it to more than one vehicle. I have both the car and the motorcycle registered (license plate and description).

Wish they could weld the cell shut and just keep him in there.

I use the EZ Toll mesh holder for my Sunpass (can see the EZ Toll on Amazon). Just place my Sunpass in the mesh bag, slide the mechanism down to cinch it tight, and attach to the area just above the gas tank (will also attach to the handlebars or other area of the bike easily). Works every time, plu...

I'm 55 (not sure exactly where that falls on the "Older Men Scale", lol but I'm getting there) and only 5' 5" tall. I'm able to handle my Goldwing very well. I think it's balanced well and has pretty good parking lot manners as bikes go, you just have to take it slow and steady. As se...

I work with a man whose brother suffered the same fate a few years ago, was found in the garage under his car. Jack stands can be a life saver, literally.

My thoughts and prayers to friends and family of this gentleman.

I'm impressed. Looks great!

I run 38 and 42 on mine, single rider.

Got 20,000 miles on my last set; a little bit of cupping right at the end but was very happy with them.

If you do get one please post a review.

Is it Snell certified? Want to make sure you're protected if you have an accident.

Agree it sounds awfully inexpensive.

Agree that some of the younger folks ride. Here in Florida I see some younger riders, on smaller bikes mostly, usually commuting to work or school. I assume their bikes serve as cheap, economical transportation as compared with a car. We have lots of people in central Florida who ride as the weather...
