  1. I will track that Oldwing out of pure ignorance and spite.
  2. Put the Oldwing on the lift where it belongs. Next up: timing belts, oil/filter, coolant flush. Amanda's new helmet is also on the way..
  3. Not today, but a few weeks ago I installed Firestone air springs onto the Ford.
  4. Rode the Oldwing to drop off my city taxes. Runs well, considering it's three decades old. Windscreen was in the worst place it could be... right at eyeball level. I only had the option to lift it, so I did. Never rode a bike looking through the glass before. Should be a fun experience. Timing belts and oil/filter should be here in a few days. Spark plugs/air cleaner were replaced at 20k miles, so those are not being replaced this season. Carbs were rebuilt and sync'd as well. With the exception of the timing belts, which I just don't trust based on age, this bike is maintained above/beyond my own expectations. Now.. where do I find Ohlins for a bike this old?
  5. They're busy making more money elsewhere.
  6. Fine gentleman, your old man. Please tell him we made it home without incident and we really like the bike. This will do quite well for the two of us. I'm excited to get it on the road. Thanks, Jen.
  7. Six gallon fuel tank will do that.
  8. "Hitherto optional rear speakers and CB radio became standard on the GL1500SE '93; boosting both its weight—813 pounds" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Gold_Wing#GL1500_SE
  9. Yes. Pavers will eventually break up and look like shit. You're walking/riding a 900lb bike across them.
  10. https://calicoproducts.com/basic-not-boring-concrete-walkways/ Just some ideas..
  11. Concrete path. It's only money.
  12. Buttoned up the 12k service. Just have to scan it and reset the service reminder. Lift is now ready for the Oldwing to be inspected and serviced. Pick that up on Tuesday.
  13. Happiness comes from within... a Honda dealership.
  14. Harleys are awesome bikes if you've never ridden anything else.
  15. I don't want three Ninjabikes. I don't really want one Ninjabike.
  16. If it had ABS I would have already mailed a check. It's a smoking deal on a pristine classic and I have no place to store it.
