First off, Hi to everyone. I have been off line for a while and just got back on.
Finally ordered the tapered roller bearings for the steering head. The wobble drives me crazy when backing down. I can feel it even when both hands are on the grips. Dealer only tightens the existing bearing but it never really goes away. Part that really gets me is, not all of the Gold Wings do it. Mine is a 2010, last year made in Ohio. Son-in-Law has identical bike and tells me his does not do it?? Go figure. Honda will not address the issue, only to say that you should not take your hands off the grips. And I shouldn't take the tags off my mattress and pillow either. Oh well. Guess I'll spend the money to correct the problem.
Having it and the Ride Off Center Stand put on the 18th of this month just before a long trip from Maryland up thru New York,(Stopping at OCC for the required T shirt) Catskills, Adirondacks, up into Canada and around Lake Ontario, back down western New York, PA, Maryland and then hone (between Baltimore and D.C.).
The boss on the back seat will be taking the Camera and hope to post some pictures when I get back. Oh, and will post in the right place, rides/trips.
