    Customizing might be a stretch(factory speaker boxes mod)

    The grills that came with these speakers are much too large diameter to put on the enclosures, but I think I have some older ones that are smaller and may work. I'll post some pics if I tackle that project before I leave for Sturgis next month.

    Customizing might be a stretch(factory speaker boxes mod)

    I just put the same speakers in my factory pods(grills and chrome trim intact). It was a tight fit and had to mount them behind the mounting brackets so there was room for the midrange and tweeter. They do sound decent enough for $25 Walmart specials. Did you try them with the grills intact...

    Fork Seal Replacement, et al.

    Thanks, I got the fluid changed over the weekend. Didn't replace the seals, I'll tackle that over the winter. Boy, getting the caps back on was quite the chore. I ended up using a 1 1/8" 12 point socket connected to a 1/2" drive ratchet to get them started. It buggered up the finish of the...

    Saddlebag and trunk seals?

    I've done some searching on the site, but haven't found anything. On the Wing I just bought the seals are in pretty bad shape and one is completely missing. Is there a source(other than Honda) for replacement seals for the saddlebags and the trunk?

    Sturgis?

    Looks like I'll be heading to the Sturgis Rally with a friend of mine next month. This will be our first time going there. We'll be "tent camping" and will be doing plenty of partying, :music: but want to be able to get some sleep too. :lazy: Can anyone recommend a campground to stay at...

    I'm having trouble finding the spec for fork oil capacity/level for a 1983 Interstate. Can anyone help me out?

    New guy from Nebraska

    Well, I started tearing into it this morning and the water pump is quite the "wobbler" so it looks like I'll be changing that along with the timing belts, t-stat, radiator cap, and hoses. The belts look original(Honda branded) and are quite loose so I'm glad I took a gander under the belt...

    New guy from Nebraska

    Just bought my first Wing yesterday. I hadn't been on one since I rode on the back of my Dad's 1980 Goldwing over 25 years ago. Moving up from a KLR650. Test drove a beater a couple days ago, and bought this much nicer one. 1983 Interstate with 64,000 miles on it with a nice little trailer to...
