    2012 GL1800 champion trike. I’ve been looking at the discussion on drive shaft u-joints issues. Not yet pinpointed the noise.

    If you share why you're thinking about alternator bearings and u-joints, you might get a responce or an answer.

    2008 GL 1800

    5th gens are voltage sensitive. Start with the easy stuff first. The battery connections need to be clean and tight. If all good there, have the battery professionally tested at a powersports dealer. If your battery is bad, and you buy a new one, assume it to be bad too, until it is tested...

    Before you buy a trike

    As a reminder, before ever buying a trike, get the VIN and be sure to enter it here (CARFAX). In the last couple of months, there's been several trikes brought here for service/repair. Once the plastic is off, it becomes easy to see that the bike, now a trike, had been in a major wreck prior...

    Rear Tire Recommendations Needed?

    I have to admire the built in treadwear indicator too; it's a brilliant idea. And then there is the flipside ... basically it took 150 years of making tires for someone to think of it. And the arrow on the fuel gage, to show a driver what side the fuel door is on, about 120 years.

    The importance of maintanence

    In the last couple of weeks, 2 customers have call in the middle of cross country trips asking for help on a fellow person's Wing that they are traveling with. In both cases, the Wings in question had to turn back and not continue. Of coarse it affects the other people on the tour too. So...

    Oil filters for GL1800s

    FYI ... to tell if an oil filter is intended for a particular application, look in their oil filter catalog. Below is a picture of one that is not intended, designed or engineered, for a GL1800.

    Another one without a swivel hitch

    Another one where the trailer flips and takes the bike and rider too. He should have had a swivel hitch.

    Don't forget to follow your maintenace schedule

    As a reminder, every trike manufacture should have a maintenance schedule. Usually they can be found on their web pages. Once a bike is triked, it now has 2 maintenace schedules ... on from Honda and one for the trike. It's important to remember that those schedules assume your riding under...

    On-line videos

    I've got questions, and this all has to do with the information being provided in the video. At least here, repairs have a start and end point. They start with a complaint, or concern. So the start point is to verify the symptom. For a fork OH that often starts with a test ride, and usually...

    An oil change

    A 2005 came in yesterday for tires and an oil change. The owner recently bought it. On its first test ride, I returned telling my Tech that the tranny shifts where extreemly bangy, and I kept waiting for it to hiccup in 5th ... but it never did. As it turned out, the oil was extreemly black...
