I bought this thinking I'd put it on my 80 project. Well I got half way with it but that one kinda died on the vine. I opened it to try it on but never used. thanks

I first learned of this ignition here on this forum. I was looking to keep my GL's running into the next few lifetimes. Well......things changed and sadly I never got to try this out. I sold the 1100 I was going to use this on. I was keeping it with the option of using it on my 78...

The bike I have been working on for 6 years and finally got running has a defunct speedometer. If you got one you'd like to sell let me know. Thanks a bunch! Pony

I bought this 83 parts bike. It didn't have the oem left rotor. I need one to finish my 83/83 hybrid project. thanks

Time to let it go. I want/need to finish my GL 1000 project. Space is needed - physical and mental. Bought about 5yrs ago. Swapped out the motor for low mileage motor thinkin this would be my touring rig. I was a bit more energetic then. :roll: 43K+ on the bike, less than 25k on the...

Inquiring mind...random thinking. The m/c on my 83 works best just after its bled. Seems I have to do this periodically . I notice the pedal going farther the less use/longer it sits. It has been siting about a year now (busy) and the pedal is no where close to normal. It stops with the back...

What are all ya all running? I was thinkin EBC just cause they seem to be the most expensive :roll: No really I do want the best even if they are more$ than the ebay variety. I realize opinions may vary as in which oil to use so let'm fly. Well that and I want my 1100 to stop gooooood! The...

I used these on my old 78. I have some I am thinkin of using on my 1100. If I recall they work but can't recall if the b.resistor is eliminated. There is a b. resistor on the stock coil if I'm correct... Anybody running green dyna coils on their 1100? Thanks, Pony still here....been...

Ok well I finally pulled the trigger. Got me a C5. I read the directions, but sometimes (often) when it comes to mech/tech/elec. stuff i've never done before, I either read too much into it, not enough or something gets lost or left out in translation. In spite of myself I have managed to...

So I've got some 3 ohm green dyna coils I'd like to put on my 1100. The stock coils are on now and have a ballast resistor. I've gotten conflicted on this subject. Keep the ballast resistor or not? Dyna electronic ignition on a 1000 - no ballast resistor. 1100 has electronic ignition -...

I bought one but it ain't it. I didn't research the options well enough. It had a review by a 1200 rider but the thing has this heat sink that needs to be outside the headlight. It would work if I cut a hole in the fairing and ran it out the back. That was a $30 mistake. Any other options /...

I have turn sigs, horn, lights, starter, etc. but nothing on the tank gauges. I did discover by looking at some ebay pics and such that I don't / maybe didn't have the proper 7v reg. It has been awhile but I bought one of these (2nd pic) - can't remember where - maybe via here? Pretty sure...

I ordered up some LED's. Headlight bulb too. I have some dash lights that I got from a forum member but don't see putting those in just yet. That be another topic of discussion. So....I am hoping I get some savings and can put some heated grips on. Any good recommendations? Quality, ease...

Pondering this. https://seattle.craigslist.org/sno/mcy/5760488267.html I don't really need the bike per se. I'd like it for parts - body - esp. if the paint is good/great. To me it is a non-running parts bike. I'd go $200 - $250 depending on the paint. For anyone looking at this as a...

Looking for a good set of rider foot pegs for an 83 I. these are the flatish looking ones - not the more round variety. thanks, P.R.

I think I want to paint my Interstate. I go back and forth on this - cause it looks like a lot of work. Then again I am doing a bit of other paint on my 78 and I enjoy it. Its still a lot of work and a pita sometimes. The thing I am pondering now is if anyone has come up with an alternative...

I am wondering about these old stators. Do they just go blink and out or is there some warning signs? My mission is to make the old bikes I have more reliable. At least the one I like riding (the runner) my future potential upgrades C5, Led's, ?: others you would do? I have heard of...

I want it but I can't have it. I need to finish the one I have. those are some low miles. https://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/mcy/5531707600.html

I'm kinda interested in this bike. While I like my GL1100 and my project 1000 (which I will finish regardless) I think I'd like to change it up. I was thinking do the C5 upgrade on both and call it good. Then again change can be good albeit expen$ive - if ya know what I mean..... :shock...
