I rode a 1500 Goldwing years ago for an article in Ride magazine. I didn't like the look of the fully faired, kitted up bikes, but I was really impressed with the smooth engine, low centre of gravity and the ease of handling for such a heavy machine. The early naked versions are definitely growing on me. 👍

Hi Ted
Good point! My fault didn’t realise a price was policy. I will adjust accordingly.
As for the pictures I’m struggling to upload them? I’m not great at this stuff and am a bit confused.
Every time I try to upload it times out?

The picture file may be too large? 3mp is max size for this site, no more than 5 photos per post.

True, but they never mentioned how many times they stopped to pick up detached parts
🤣🤣🤣

I bought Keyster kits from DSS for my 400 and they've been fine.
I suspect cheap offers of 'Keyster' kits on Internet from unknown sellers could be Chinese copies, just like fake NGK spark plugs going around.

Ozzy, I didn't even know there was an issue with it until it was shown to me, no symptoms. It doesn't really look like much damage and if it is usually the case as I'm told that there is some I just might tell them to ignore it. Even CMSL havn't got the part.
I'd be tempted to put it back then. Can you get pictures of the alleged damage? After their muckup with the primary chain and not identifying the correct gear I wouldn't trust them. I hope they don't introduce a problem that wasn't there before! 😕

The tank looks pretty good. Get some protection on there before it starts rusting! 😟

Beautiful looking bike. Well done Roy. You must be well chuffed.

I did lay power into mine and use a 240v security light (top right)
Also from Wickes.

Despite the advice to go mains power I decided to try solar power. Getting a mains power supply to 2 separate walls would have worked out more expensive. I don't mess about with mains power myself anymore, getting too old.
After reading lots of reviews, not all genuine, I'm sure, I actually went to a real shop and looked at real lights in the flesh! That was a novel experience, I haven't been doing that much for quite a while.
I bought lights from Wickes, Saxby dual LED lamps with a separate solar panel that can be positioned up to 5m away from the light if necessary. They are 1400 lumens which is plenty bright enough, and even a dull, cloudy day in February provides plenty of battery charge. They seem good quality and are performing well so far. 👍

Mick, if that doesn't do the trick do you have any electrical wizard mates nearby who can help?

Check the rectifier/regulator.

If you don't want to fit the plastic replacements there are quite a few aftermarket stubby LED type indicators on eBay including some that look as if they will fix to rear plates or mudguards.
Presumably I'm going to need resistors for every light with the original electrics unless I do dig deep and get an m.unit, very tempting having spoken to Roo about his
You only need resistors for LED indicators if you use the original type indicator relay. You can fit LED indicator bulbs and a replacement relay which works with LED. All other bulbs on the bike can just be replaced with LED bulbs.
