Had my 78 gl1000 for a few years now, had its ups and downs, now it's under the knife. I think I would like to dabble with a single carb conversion....so that's how I wound up here! Not sure if I can contribute much since I'm still a rookie goldwing guy but at least I can comment on what not to do! Thank you.
 
Thanks guys! I hope to be bugging....er..uh...asking for advice on carbs soon!

Timely - my carbs are off for rebuild right now. It's not real hard, but very time-consuming and you need to pay attention to details. Lots of folks here have gone before and made the mistakes for us. It's great to learn from them.
 
I enjoy cleaning them...just not syncing them lol. Mine should be good for a while, just rebuilt them and repaired a broken float post in the number 4.

I hated cleaning mine, but they were pretty corroded and clogged.
 
:good:

Hi Brian, and welcome to the group! There's plenty of us here, and I think it's pretty universal- we're all very experienced at making mistakes, and we're all happy to give you as much bad advice as we can muster. I guarantee you, if there's any really bad ideas out there, SOME of us have tried it, and the others have laughed with us as we cleaned up the mess afterwards...
:doh: :smilie_happy: :smilie_happy: :smilie_happy:
 
Thank you much everyone! While I wait for money and parts I decided to open up a can of worms and redo all my wiring lol....I'll have a list of not what to do pretty soon!
