I'm sure they've been asked for a million times, but I'm looking for the fiberglass engine covers for the GL1200 someone made a very long time ago, in any color. I had only one side when I had Freebie, but it went with the bike when I sold it. I only see the chrome metal version, and I don't...

After some time whining, a wonderful lurking member (thanks, Allen!) approached me with the offer to buy his beautiful 1986 Aspencade. It's in great condition overall, but Covid forced him to park it for nearly two years. As we all know, any time you park a carbureted bike without advanced...

Hello all. Been here a long while, mostly lurking over the past few years. So many changes have happened since I owned Freebie, and in a lot of ways for the better. I've got married, bought a house, gotten said wife pregnant, and rode out a nasty bug that's gone around a few times. Things are...

Well, it's been a while, but I'm making a comeback! This Friday I'll be looking at an 81 GL1100 and possibly bringing it home. The current owner states it needs work, but runs. He claims it needs a bump-start to get going, so the starter might be toast. If/when I go and buy it and bring it...

Greetings, all! I recently acquired a bike that I’m on the fence about keeping. Thus, I present to the forum an offer! 2014 Triumph Speedmaster (EFI) Just over 2K miles British Customs Performance Airbox Kit British Customs Cocktail Shaker mufflers Power Commander tuner Aftermarket seat...

After 8 months of not having a bike at all, I’ve finally picked up another bike! 2014 Triumph Speedmaster A3 with 2K miles. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have recently discovered a new form of torture: the strain of scraping (almost literally) pennies together to buy a bike when the budget is very tight. I imagine many of you all have experienced this torture, and I marvel at how anyone survives it! With the possibility of being offered the...

Is there a significant, if any, difference between the 1200 Standard and the Interstate/Aspencade? If I manage to scoop up a 1200 Standard, I wonder if the rear saddlebag assembly and top-case can be mounted? For lack of a better example, see the Harley Road King, how it mounts bags and the...

Hey all! Sorry it's been so long since I posted, but life has put me through some significant changes in the past few months. I sold Freebie about two months ago to another lover of old Wings, and he has since gotten her running and riding. I was heartbroken to see her go, but knowing he...

Freebie has been sold to a friend.

Well. . . This blows. I want to get a title for Freebie, but can't get any information on the previous owner. I have the VIN and the Title Number, but I can't get any more info than that. I need to contact the original owner to possibly obtain a duplicate title. Nothing has been helpful so far...

Hey all! I recently spoke with the Snap-On rep at work, and will be purchasing a set of JIS screwdrivers and possibly opening an account with him. I know I need to replace some of my crappy tools already, however I wanted to know what tools you'd recommend buying to perform maintenance on my...

https://www.brandonhd.com/default.asp?p ... dInventory The sales manager at my job (Brandon Harley-Davidson) asked me very nicely to share this bike on this group so we could find it a loving home. It's in amazing condition (I'm the detailer, and wash all the bikes, so I've seen it up-close and...

I've seen a few members on the map, but most of them are either deleted profiles or inactive members. I'm looking to find someone who may want to join me in fiddling with my Freebie project, but if There's no one, I'll continue my quest with my existing group of mechanic friends. . .

Hey all! :wave: For my restoration, I find I am in need of the left handlebar controls. The Master Cylinder, lever, choke lever and assembly, and other possible attachments for a GL1200. Anybody have an extra they're willing to sell? Know of a fairly priced option online? :thanks:

Well, the bike will be coming home within the next week or so, so I figured I should begin documenting my restoration/rebuild. It's allegedly a GL1200I (not sure though), and it has been sitting outside for quite some time. I fiddle with it occasionally at the shop it currently sits at, so I've...

Hey all you wing-heads! :rocks: Is there a way to sort the assorted member bikes into the engine displacements? IE: 1100, 1200, 1300, etc. . . I love looking at all the bikes, but wading through the mountain of assorted albums can be a bit daunting. Some of you guys have absolutely SEXY...

Ok, this is my third attempt at creating this topic, I think my original pics were too large. . . As I mentioned in previous posts, a local shop has offered me a GL1200 for me to buy for my build. It's been sitting for a while in their bike storage area behind their shop. It has been in the...

I've seen it a few times on several posts that some people have used Sportster mufflers for their Wings. Is there a meaningful advantage to using them? Would the touring model bikes' (Road King, Glide, Etc) mufflers work as well? I work at a Harley dealer in Florida, and can usually pic up...
