My lawyer told me I was basically SOL for recovering anything from the welfare queen that ran us over. Pretty sure he'd tell you the same thing.

Honda CBR1000... fast bike. Honda GL1800... less fast bike. Problem solved. Zero dollars. You're welcome.

Goldwing

You can also get a new windshield with a vent cut into it.

Go over here and ask about the scraping. https://www.gl1800riders.com/forums/ Bunch of grumpy old fart prudes over there that will say slow down, but you will get some that will help figure it out. No air is the norm on the old gen wings. The old fart prudes like that for some reason. You can get wings to go under the mirrors and on the side fairings to push wind at you.

I used to drag the centerstand on the Multistrada until it scraped enough material away that it was no longer an issue. Just do that.

I had to attend a meeting in Mount Vernon today. Great excuse to get better acquainted with the Goldwing. Nobody ever mentioned the lack of wind on your face behind the a Goldwing fairing. Hence the old man open face helmet. I drug some hard parts multiple times on left handers. I think it’s the center stand. You can see shiny metal on the front edge of the foot to the center stand. Scary stuff. I increased the preload and it seemed to help but I still touched down. It’s a bit unnerving when it drags because it doesn’t fold up like a peg does. I’m not sure what’s up. A Google search doesn’t turn up anything so I’m guessing it’s not common.
