Can any one recommend a video walk through of how to change the spark plugs on my 82 gl1100a?

Had a cop stop me last night cause none of my rear lights were working. My brake light and turn signals work but nothing else. Any ideas? Where are the fuses located?

My left turn signal works fine. The right turn signal does not blink. It comes on and stays solid. Any suggestions?

Still can’t get the acorn but off. I even dropped it off at a local cycle shop hoping they could get it off and still no luck. And that part is a discontinued part. A buddy told me about this guy locally that has a motorcycle junkyard. Went out there after work yesterday and he had one on a bike...

Thanks for the info. I’ll post a update this evening.

Are these just spacers?

I’m changing out the rear air shocks to non air shocks. The left side came off and went on with very little issue. The right side however is quite different on the bottom half.

Having problems with my front brakes 82 gl1100 aspencade. When I use the front brake, it does not want to release. I have to crack the bleeder valve for them to open up. Cant figure it out. Please help, and thank you in advance.

Are the air shocks universal as far as the side they can go on. I see some advertised on eBay but some state which side they are off of. And others say universal?

Ok so I'm gonna take your advice and rebuild with the progressive springs. What else should/do I need to replace while in there? Any advice to find a walk through ?

I'm not in a position to pump a ton of money in it right now. So wanna look at all options ya know.

Well I weigh 250 and will be two- upping frequently. What would I look up for the Taiwanese ones? Are they compatible with the 1100

It's definitely bottoming out. When I had my wife on the back it was a very ruff ride.

It slowly looses air. What are the progressive rear springs? I also thought about removing the rear air ride and going with a standard spring set up. Any suggestions?

It's only 22k. This thing is so clean. Only one owner. Very confident that it's only 22k. I'm wondering if the seals in the air shocks are dry rotted or something from setting.
