    GL1100 GoldWing Single Carburetor conversion Kit - $ 300.00

    Yes, SlabGhost is correct that it fits the 1000 and 1100. (Sorry - I don't need another carb rack - I cleaned the stock carbs and am just waiting to sell this single carb unit before putting the stock carbs back on)

    GL1100 GoldWing Single Carburetor conversion Kit - $ 300.00

    The kit came already installed on the bike by previous owner he called it a Volkswagon carb.....I did not get any of the paper work. What I know is it's a single barrel and most likely a Solex but I have not found a brand name on it- but I have not removed the carb from the bike. It also is...

    The next two tanks offered 44.9 mpg then 42 mpg with the single carb. I did finish rebuilding the stock rack of 4 carbs but will ride the single carb a bit more. However, I've bought two more SilverWings so they need to be tested out too.

    Mine is an 82' - guess I'll find out how the stock carbs do in comparison. Though I must admit I've been riding this bike slower than usual as without a windshield 75 -80 mph is just too much wind for long periods of time. So 40 mpg is pretty much as good as it gets for a GL1100? (Not bad for a...

    I did get around to riding the GL1100 a bit and have put about 400 miles on it. I'm riding it with the "single carb" and have had to work on this carb a bit as the choke was not opening fully. First tank of gas 20mpg, 2nd tank of gas 26 mpg, 3rd tank 40 mpg. I believe I have the electric choke...

    1983 Honda radio system – radio, cassette, CB I bought yet another bike and it came with the full Honda style radio system. The previous owner started to disassemble this bike to sell as parts – thus I have a rolling basket case - I intend to put the bike back into serviceable condition as a...

    Thanks for the warm welcome - I'll post some photos soon - Omega Man, I did post a couple of the SilverWing photos in the album, it may take a bit of time for me to figure out the forum navigation. I'm sure it's easy enough but just have to find the time between my regular work and playing with...

    I've bought 12 GL500 and GL650's AKA Silverwings (1981 to 1983) during the last five years - some in bad shape some in Great shape. It's turned into a big hobby for me along with about 75,000 miles of riding them. This week I picked up my first Goldwing a 1982 GL1100 with 9,600 original miles...
