I am selling a 1984 Goldwing. Manitowoc, Wisconsin. The mileage is 104447. This is technically a Goldwing Standard but it has been specially outfitted with a Goldwing Fairing and saddlebags to look more like an Interstate. I paid 2000 dollars for this when I bought it a few years ago. I am...

I have a 1984 Goldwing Standard. I did some work on cleaning the rear caliper earlier. Cleaning it up, replacing pads. It worked pretty well for one ride. Now a few days later, when I press the rear brake pedal all the way down, the brakes do not engage, or at least very very little. I...

I have a 1984 GL1200 Standard. My front brake has been acting funny since I bought it a couple years back. I find it takes way too much squeezing to get any stopping pressure on the front brake. I have to squeeze it almost totally against the handle grip before it starts to do anything. Way...

My rear brakes seemed to be sticking so I took the caliper apart and greased the slides as I assumed that was the problem. I also replaced pads. When I put it back together I still noticed some issues as the rear brakes were getting hot. I looked closer from the rear and noticed the inner...

I have a 1984 GL1200. I have to grease the brake slides on the rear brake. It seems like there is no way to remove the caliper without having to disconnect the brake line. Thus I would have to drain the fluid. The brake line is not long enough for me to remove the caliper otherwise. Is...

I seem to be missing the Seat Bolts on my 1984 Standard. The old owner put a make shift bolt in, and on the other side its missing completely. Can someone show me a picture of what they are actually supposed to look like?

Basically what I said in the title. My fuel gauge and temp gauge without warning started going all the way to the high positions. Both concurrently. Not sure why. I was out on a 4 hour ride. It was only doing this for about a half hour period. Then it went back to normal. What would cause...

I have one of them Slipstreamer plastic windshields with that vent in the middle on it. Its got like a year or two worth of bugs, gunk, and dirt on it. Just inquiring what the best methods are for cleaning. Obviously, get it very wet before attempting to get stuff off, but I kind of think...

My 1984 GL1200 was apart for a few months this winter due to a broken bolt on the rear clutch cover. Well after a lot of head scratching I got that out. I also replaced that seal that goes in the middle of the clutch cover that holds the engine oil in. That actuator pin goes in the middle...

Looks like I have some leakage under my cylinder cover head on the right side of the bike. (GL1200 1984). Is this a common leak area? I assume I could drain the oil out, remove the cover and replace the head cover gasket? Though, did I read somewhere that the bolt rubbers should be replaced...

Does anyone have experience lifting or jacking up a GL1200? I think I need to buy a motorcycle jack. I have to take the Center Stand off so I can get at a broken bolt on the rear clutch cover I have to drill out on the lower left side. Pictures and insights would be greatly helpful. Thanks

I have a snapped bolt on the clutch cover. Seeking the best way to remove it. Please watch my video. https://youtu.be/cQ3t8sck7to https://youtu.be/cQ3t8sck7to

Greetings, I am planning to replace the engine oil seals that are under the clutch cover on my 1984 GL1200 (numbers 14 and 15 on the attached picture). In order to do that I have to remove the slave cylinder. The slave cylinder itself is not leaking, but my question is if you remove it, I...

Hello everyone, There has been a slight oil leak on my 1984 GL1200 since I bought it two years ago. I tried having a shop replace one or two of the gaskets or seals but that didn't seem to help. Recently I have been looking closer and it looks like there is a chip or very small piece broken...

I replaced my rear shock seals about a year ago, now they are leaking again. Looking now at just replacing them with non air or non fluid filled shocks, perhaps mechanical shocks. Anyone have a brand recommendation? 1984 GL1200.

Today my speedometer stopped functioning as did the odometer. I suspect the cable is bad. At first the speedometer stopped working, except when I would step on the brake hard. Then it would work during a hard brake. Now it just doesn't work at all. I suspect it's the speedometer cable...

I have had my GL1200 for a year and a half now. I still think I could do better when it comes to handling the bike while cornering. When I get to an intersection where I do not have to stop and I am going to turn right for example, I find I end up slowing down so much that my handle bar...

Going to put new brake pads on the front. Trying to decide on what brand is best. Especially want to avoid squeaking. Recommendations?

Does anyone ever find something dripping from their rear brake disc? I have a 1984 Interstate and I have noticed a rusty colored watery liquid. I am thinking this is from condensation on some of the rear components collecting and dripping down the brake disc onto my floor. Experience?
