    1987 GL1200A W/ HOBO Outrigger Trike kit

    I really don't want to sell it, but we bought an '08 1800 and I just can't justify 2 bikes with our lifestyle, traveling for my wife's work. I went for a short ride today and I'll tell you, I'm going to miss her. She's been a good one.

    87 GL 1200A Need help with a problem

    87 GL 1200A Need help with a problem

    I swear, bad luck just keeps following me. Riding, night before last after dark and my headlight went out.

    How does the Grip Cancel Switch Plate work

    "GRIP CANCEL SWITCH plate". I've been trying to picture in my mind what this is. Can you post a picture. This is a picture of a switch I installed for the fan, but you can see the cruise control under it. Are you talking about this?

    heat....

    Here's praying you don't get the problems I have with heat after a major heat stroke event when I was younger. I was working in a factory and the air conditioning had been out for 2 days and since we worked the graveyard shift management decided we could work. This was August in the Missouri...

    heat....

    Hot down in the tip of South Texas also. Triple digit heat everyday last week and for the foreseeable future beyond this week. Humidity 50 to 60% in the afternoon. Fun, fun, fun, NOT! Bike is getting a much needed rest.
