    the Blue Goose is ready to leave NJ and head to Louisiana

    I have a throttle issue. Sometimes she runs perfect and other times she acts like she's not getting any throttle (although I have it wide open). I'm assuming that I loosed something up on the carbs (or throttle cable) when I pulled the motor. ( I just held the carbs up with bungy cords, I did...

    Can't get the "blue goose" (gl1100) started

    As ya'll may recall I had busted teeth in my engine, along with stator issues. I pulled the motor and with direction and parts from Gerry, I put the motor back together and put it into the bike. I put a new stator in while the motor was out, but I'm not too confident about my clutch work, but...

    clutch pad tightness

    1982 gl1100 I torque the clutch "star" thingy (that goes over the clutch pads). I used rating from the book, but it seems too tight. Now, I say "too tight", although I've never done this before, so saying "too tight" may seem a little weird. I would think that the pads wouldn't be so tight...

    stator connectors

    I have a new stator that I put on the bike (82). the stator (of course) has the plug, but the other plug (from the bike) has been cut off. (the old stator was hard wired to the bike). I am looking for the "stator plug kit". Does anyone have any suggestions? All I have to do is put the motor...

    torquing GL1100 case bolts

    When I finally get to put the case back together, does anyone know what the torque is suppose to be on the various bolts? Everything that I find (including my Goldwing book), just simply says to bolt the 2 cases together.

    an offer I had to refuse

    I went to Glassboro, NJ to see 3 wings that were for sale. I only wanted one (for the motor), but the owner will only sell all 3 at one time and he wants $1500 for all 3. The grey one is an Aspencade and the blue and brown ones are Interstates. The upside is, he said if he can't sell all...

    splitting open my 82' 1100

    I've got everything off, all the bolts removed and all I have to do it pull them apart. This is my 1st open heart surgery. I've taken videos of a few steps but I have to learn how to upload videos. I was told which gasket set to get and which to stay away from. I remembered which to stay...

    1100gl clean out

    I was told that there is a clean out on the right side of the 1100. I think I found it but I'm not sure. Can someone point me in the right direction?

    '82 1100 made clacking noise then shut off

    I was riding my brand new 1982 interstate. (lol) I'm had it for about 2 months but only been riding it for 1 month. I was riding last week and the bike made a loud clacking noise then shut off. I restarted it twice, then it shut off when I put it into 1st gear. If I roll it backwards, in...
