My TriGlide to 2019 Goldwing CSC Trike Switch

[GoldWingrGreg]

Thanks Sir - but, I believe you missed my point. You said OUCH to a new TriGlide at $48K - I was asking about the price for a new Wing that has a trike kit attached?

I must have. In my mind, the guy who bought the tri-glide, and because many complain about their poor ride, might be the one who finds out how much a new 6th gen trike costs.

Ok time to change the oil again, I used Honda oil the last time but since there is not a dealer close by I was thinking about going with Rotella T6. I used it in my Venture I had and liked it, but I have not seen a lot of information about using it in a Goldwing. What do you guys think?

Once we found Amsoil years ago, we used it exclusively ever after in every bike we owned.. Kawasakis, Suzukis, Hondas.. including the Gold Wing trikes… we always noticed the immediate change in shifting on the first oil change after we bought them… smooth and quiet..

A second vote for Carla's recommendation. Full synthetic for me in all my (several) Goldwings. A noticeable improvement when switching from non-synthetic....... Jim

I guess I'm a Winger now cause I sold the Triglide yesterday, time to make this wing my own.

I hear a story like yours often. When there are health issues, the Harley rides to harsh, and the person upgrades to a Wing with independent suspension

Opps ... thought this was a 5th gen area.

It's that time of year, changed the engine oil and oil filter, replaced the brake fluid the water content was not bad but I changed it out and bleed the brakes. After a test ride the rear brakes are better than have been since I've had the bike.

Time to move on to my next project the air filter, it seams this is going to be tough since I have never attempted it. yawl wish me luck and share your advice.

I hear it’s a little involved.

 

[pwhoever]

I hear it’s a little involved.

I think Honda is the only motorcycle manufacturer to take the air filter, design a bike around it, and then bury it in the process...

 

[Woody]

Been looking around but not finding much on the 2018+ Goldwings air filter change. I think I'll wait till all these storms are over before I dive in.

Woody, I’d be very interested in all comparisons between the TG and the GW trikes. I have a CSC converted 2021 GW and wouldn’t change it for any other make. Big reasons for the GW is the automatic transmission, rear suspension, reverse, powered windshield and electric suspension adjust. I’d like to hear your comparisons, both big and small. Welcome to our world and go CSC!
