Yesterday Honda Service Managers received an email from the Honda Corporation stating that dealerships could now order parts for, and schedule customers appointments for, the UBS Bolt recall. The email came with 30 pages of instructions, diagrams, etc.
Basically a lot of disassembly is required to get to the UBS Bolt, and a special tool (supplied by honda) is required. One major change is that the engine will NOT have to be removed from the frame. Honda states that replacement will take 5-1/2 hours to complete. Keep in mind, this information pertains to two-wheeled 2018+ GoldWing's.
I paid a visit to my dealership this morning and talked to the service manager. He already ordered the parts to satisfy the recall for my Trike, but received no information (instructions/diagrams) on how to perform this service on GoldWings that were triked. He told me he placed a call to the Honda Corporation this morning for additional information and was awaiting a return call.
Apparently when the recall was performed for the fuel pump issue, instructions for both two and three wheeled GoldWings were sent to service managers.
Anyone else speak to their dealerships / Service Managers about this recall?
