Randakk sells the shelter hinges, bushings and even a tether kit. There are always at least ten tool trays for sale on eBay any given day. https://randakks.com/collections/reproduction

Carbs were rebuilt and installed, gas tank cleaned, fuel lines and filter replaced. she fired up and sounds fantastic! no more smoke no more spitting oil. Another oldwing is roadworthy once again!

Haha, nope but it did fetch $80.00 on eBay. Sold it to a fella in Norway. 80 bucks closer to a new set of tires!

It has multiple functions. it's a clock, stopwatch, calender,counter, and most importantly an hour meter "like a boat or farm equipment may have instead of an odometer. It's meant to be installed on an aspencade's fairing or on top of the shelter. If it doesn't sell on eBay I'm going to make...

So I helped my dad clean out his garage on Sunday, and we found this NOS Hondaline chronometer stuffed away on a shelf. He said I can have it for my GL1000 or sell it and use the money for other motorcycle related articles. Just wondering if anyone would be interested in it of if it's a...

UPDATE!! Worked on her all weekend. Even though i still cant get her to run steady " due to terrible carbs that will be rebuilt next Sunday" the compression is already showing signs of improvement! I think I may be ok. A quick thank you to Riff Raff for helping me out with plans for fitting a...

Yeah, that's a good call. The oil has already been changed once since I bought it. I will change it again add the atf for cleaning. then change it again with fresh oil.

Haha, yeah I may have gone a bit overboard with the heat wrap. Ya spend 50 bucks for a roll you really want to use it all!! Here,s a photo of my first bike 72 cb750 I'm still in love with her and wanted to transfer some of the style I used with her to my new bike. Maybe I should just stick...

I think that's what I will do, hopefully I get lucky! thanks.

As far as a full history goes heres what I have " heresay from P.O." Originally purchased by older gentlemen here in MI who rode it for about 20K sold to his neighbor in late 90's early 2000's where it sat in his garage till 2010. Given to his brother in law who rebuilt the carbs, realized it...

It sat for at least ten years in a garage

Ok, thanks for explaining that. Yes the #4 plug is completely soaked in oil. it may not be firing "but it has spark out when tested out of the cylinder" i cant keep her running long enough to listen for a missing cylinder. I don't hear any knocking though. It would be awesome if its a top end...

Oil ring? is that the same as a piston ring or something different.

It doesn't smell like coolant, and it has the consistency of old dirty oil.

Hi everyone, Let me first say just how much I,ve learned off this forum from nothing more than reading through old threads, lots of great info here! I bough a pretty decent 77 GL 1000 last February and have been cleaning here up for the past few weeks. It originally didn't have spark, and I...
