Hello Dudes & Dudecesses !!
I just purchased a like-new '83 GL1100I with 32K miles. So, I'll be asking some questions in the next few days about this bike. Maybe I can start now ...
1.) What weight engine oil is recommended ?
2.) How often does the drive shaft need maintenance ( u-joint ) ?
3.) Is a higher output stator available ? I hear the engine needs to be pulled to replace it - Fun !!
4.) The front forks have a "TRAC" sticker on the lower fork tubes. Is that stock or does it mean it has an aftermarket kit installed ?
5.) Does this bike have a fuel pump ? If so, what type is it ?
6.) Looks like the carbs are the CV type, but the parts fiche doesn't show a rubber diaphram. It looks like there is just an O-ring - correct ??
7.) What is the "weak link" on this bike ???
8.) What is the typically gas mileage @ 75 mph ?
Thanks !!!
