Re: Hi
Howdy from Calgary, welcome to the club. If you like, you can tell us a bit about yourself and the bike. Is the bike new to you? Is it stock, or has it been modified? Any future plans for it? Sorry, if I seem a bit nosey.
Once you get five posts you can upload some picture, we like pictures.
Cheers,

Re: Hi
I've had the Goldwing for a couple of years, it has low miles and I've been working on it to restore and refurbish it. Right now I'm doing the heads, one of the timing belts went out a few weeks ago. Bent the valves and cracked the Guide on the right side and waiting for one to come in from ebay. Does anyone know of a machine shop in Northern Colorado that can work on the seats and flatten the mating surface?
