I've owned several touring bikes over the years since 1972 when I started riding and I've told people- if you want to go somewhere, you get a Goldwing. Hands down the best long distance ride there is. Had a 1200 and I considered it the best all around touring bike I've owned ( and that...

gee, you guys are making me start to feel ambitious. I am planning on finishing up my '66 CB 77 (Honda 305 Super Hawk) cafe racer. Needs wired and thats the most of that one. I will also be sending out the heads on my 76 BMW R 75/6 for new valve seats and guides ( unleaded gas causes severe...

Muy Bonita ! Me gusta mucho ! ( I think I spelled this correctly.) Very Nice ! I like it very much !

Try an industrial supply house. Thats where I found some tiny circlips for G-wing carbs.

just got the radiant floor heat hooked up in my shop ( a 16x36 space in one end of a pole barn.) Been keeping it at 56 deg. which is comfortable, but here in NW Indiana it was about 10 deg. F this AM and the little 40 gal. electric water heater is struggling to keep up. 51 deg in shop this...

If I can be of help give me a call. 987-3729. I'm not an expert but I've put a couple of Hondas together

I believe the procedures here in Indiana have just been revised (last year ?) rybeatty is correct I believe. I think there may have been some added hoops to jump through. I asked about it at the local BMV and was given a stack of papers to go through and fill out. I'd see if you can track...

Yes: those look like the ones. Aquarium filter line valves would be great and I probably would have used them if I could have sourced them locally. Actually anything that will restrict the airflow will work, whether a valve or a main jet, or even a clamp of some sort on the lines. I used 2...

I used a couple of small plastic inline fuel valves as dampers: from the local mower shop as I recall. Works well. Also 2 stroke oil in the tubing. Have used this setup on my G'wing for the last ? years. Mikeyrx

Can you use dyna beads with a tube tire ? I've only used them with the tubeless tires. Mikeyrx

Shirts look Great ! Thanks ! Mikeyrx

Excellent !!! Now I will have something to wear when I work on my 2 electrically dead XS's!! Mikey

Make sure that oil pump is working and correctly adjusted. You haven't lived till you seize one of these at road speed ( don't ask) Mike

My son gave me a bottle of E.H. Taylor small batch for Christmas. Its very good. Might be hard to find in Canada. mike

No, certainly not. I mentioned the tire pressure because varying the tire pressure will make a big difference in how the tire performs on a bike. As far as differences between car tires and motorcycle tires, there certainly are many, and I would not routinely recommend a car tire (note that I...

Tire pressures are very important on the "dark side". I note Pamco Pete's picture and would comment that the contact patch on that tire is probably about the same size as a bike tire, although it doesn't look it. The Bridgestone website used to show the sizes of both bike and car tires at...

I ran "darkside" (ie. car tire) for a couple of years on my 98 Goldwing. You can do it on a big tourer or cruiser, if you select the correct size tire. Many of the high mileage Goldwing riders are using run flat tires. They have gone to the car tires because of the longer tire life, and...
