    Good Bye

    I sold the Gold Witch today. First time in memory that I have not had a motorcycle. I'm buying this, an 84 Corvette. Long time dream to own a Corvette and it is finally happening. I'd love to say I have had a blast on the Wing, but it has been so much trouble that I think it was possessed...

    Two Stroke Motor Freeze

    I picked up two 1991 Kawasaki KE100s today for my grandsons. They are in excellent condition and I got them for $200 total. One of the bikes have a piston that is stuck and I'm wondering how best to get it loosened up. I read about this in the past but never have had the problem before...

    Starter Clutch

    I just got my motor back in for the second time this summer. I had problems with the pulse generator and it looks like was a wiring problem that I probably could have fixed with the motor in the bike. At any rate I have a question about the symptoms of a starter clutch problem. The bike will...

    Leaky Carbs

    I have just finished replacing the stator on the Gold Witch and after getting things ready to fire up again number 1 carb started leaking gas pretty bad. It turned out to be a bad float bowl gasket. I got those in today and I'm ready to put the carb bank back in but I have had problems with...

    Not a Waver?

    Seen this on the Facetube: Top Ten Reasons Why Gold Wing Riders Don’t Wave Back: 10. Wasn’t sure whether other rider was waving or making an obscene gesture. 9. Afraid might get frostbite if hand is removed from heated grip. 8. Has arthritis and the past 400 miles have made it difficult to...

    1982 Motor Removal and Stator Change

    I wanted to record a stator change on my 82 1100. I decided to change the stock stator instead of doing a poor by conversion for reasons stated elsewhere. I'm going to take pictures of the progress as I go along. Could be kind of slow as I have been sick this week and I only have so much...

    Charging Question

    I believe that I have a battery problem as it is having trouble holding 12v. The service manual says that to test the stator you need continuity between all three of the yellow wires coming out of it. I do have continuity, so is that definitive? Not that it matters but the stator is only about 2...

    Quick Question on Oil Change

    I changed my oil yesterday and realized this morning that I forgot to put in the little spring that goes in front of the oil filter. Wondering if that will be a problem. This was not a normal oil change and I got plenty frustrated. Apparently I used gorilla glue, or the Hulk, to put the oil...

    Most Unhelpful Ad Ever?

    I had to giggle at this CL listing in the Bloomington, IN. area https://bn.craigslist.org/mcy/d/wing-aspencade/6497674052.html All you really know about this bike is it is an 83 Aspencade, two pictures, gas motor and manual transmission. (That information is to inform the motorcycle public)...

    Clutch Lever Pull to Start

    I'm wondering if there is a way to get around the fact that I have to pull in the clutch lever in order to start the bike. Thought I saw something about this at some point, but can't remember where. I know I don't want to try to start it in gear, but it would be nice to bypass that "feature"...

    Air Compressor Lubrication

    I have bought a few new air tools and they all need lubricated regularly and I am considering buying an in-line filter/lubrication device to hook up to my compressor. Has anyone used one of there and if so which one? Do they work? I'm looking at this from Amazon...

    License Plates

    I need to find someone from Rhode Island or South Carolina. I have been collecting car license plates from each state for about a year or so and still need those states. Maybe someone here is from there. Look at the hole in my wall.

    Setting Amp Controls

    I recently put in a new stereo head unit and am now going to install an amp to boost things. I have a Kenwood KAC-M3004 amp, 600 watts. I had, in full disclosure, almost ruined the thing a while back when the battery lead touched the negative and pretty much burned all the wires in what I...

    CV Carb Part Question

    I know that this is not a Gold Wing question but many of us have bikes with CV carbs . I have a 72 CB350 that I decided to clean the carburetors on (Keihin 722A) and found that there is a piece missing under the lid of one of the carbs. Here are a couple of pictures. Here is the piece: It...
