Sneak Peek!

Nice report. Not certain it was the 1500 or the 1800 I read about but one is reputed to be an all day job changing the air filter. Lots of plastic needs removed.

:BigGrin: Ya just have to take the radio unit off... and the seat... don't forget the white plastic tabs under the fuel lid.

~O~

It's a bit more of a pain on the 1500 Valkyrie GL. The fuel tank needs to come off. Unlike the 'wing, the Valk tank is in the traditional location.

Not too bad on the air filter, as O-man says. But...dang thing already had a new filter in it... :doh:
And of course, once I got all the stuff back on, I realized I left the dam audio cable UNDER the radio panel...out of sight...where I couldn't get to it. So....back apart she came... :whistling:

I did find some weird crap while I wuz in there, but that will haftta go into another tech thread. I did manage to get the erl/filter changed, and some plastic repair done that was needed. Should be go to go Tuesday(once Mama gets the title/registration set up tomorrow), just in time for the RAIN. :rant:

+1 especially if you don't run it low on fuel first. :doh:

according to honda the 1500 wing has a lower seat height that a 1100 or 1200 wing but the seat on a 1500 wing is wider. when I replaced my windshield I went with one that was an inch taller, that eliminated the buffeting issue I was having, don't know how it works with a passenger though
