yeah, I was wondering about the wiring too. I do have the service manual that covers all models, so hopefully I can figure it out.

ok, so here is a dumb question...how hard would it be to remove a fairing from an 82 Interstate and just go to plain headlight and turn signals? The reason I am asking.....I dropped mine on a ride Friday night and broke the plastic on inside of fairing and scratched the heck out of the outside...

well, I just finished installing the 81 speedometer on my 82 and I think the only thing different is I no longer have the self cancelling turn signals....that being said, mine didn't work very well to begin with so no loss to me and the new speedometer seems right on with my tach readings. I...

so correct me if I'm wrong here, but the wires coming out of the back of the speedometer (other than the two illumination lights) are only for the self cancelling turn signals??

received my shirt in yesterday's mail....very nice!! Thanks Dan

well, Ihaven't removed the old one yet from the 82, but the new one from the 81 has a bunch of wires.

thanks guys for the replies.

So, if I put the 81 speedometer on my bike, will the speed register correctly or is it going to be off because of different gearing? I'm just changing the speedometer unit/housing only.

Is the wiring and fitment the same for 81 and 82 Goldwing Interstate speedometers? My 82 has stopped working(except odometer) and I have an 81 that I traded for....will the wiring match up? Thanks in advance Ron

very nice bike!!

welcome from MO.

No hurry Dan Thanks, Ron

Dan...just did the donate thing with a note of xxl. Can you check and see if I did this correctly? thanks Ron

are these shirts still available??? If so, how would I go about paying for an XXL one? Thanks in advance Ron

yeah, thats the result you get when you have a very poor photographer taking a shot facing the morning sun. :doh:

wife called and said she forgot her medication prior to going to work. Chilly day, about 45 degrees....hopped on the 82 and took her meds to her work and then back home; around a 55 mile round trip. Perfect excuse to ride.

bought some seafoam to help clean out the carbs.

thanks to allfor the kind comments. I am going to enjoy this bike for sure and I'm not gonna let it go like I did my 83.

I've got the usual paint fading on the tank and scratches from years of use, but overall not too bad. I have chrome valve covers and engine covers coming.

well, I never had any problem taking the one off of my 83 wing when I had it...but this one is on there. My cousin is a car mechanic, I may run it by his shop and see if he can get it off with some of his tools. I have already ordered a new one to replace it.
