Hi john got a gew problems i pulled off the fues pipe to check for fuel getting to engine it when for a while not turning over want start . Also rectifire on a 1990 plate where is it please

Thanks great help Trying to reassemble 1987 gl that been in pieces for more than five years.

That screw in the bottom of the bowl that you’re unsure what it was for. Is the bowl drain for when you want to drain the bowls of fuel

The starter has a, I think centrifugal, clutch. Its free spinning because its gotten a little sticky with sludge build up. Colder temps make it worse. Look up doing a treatment of marvel mystery oil in your engine oil.

Did that bring the old girl back to her old original self ?

Можно нажать задний тормоз.поставить 5ю передачу и открутить гайку сцепления 30,в корзине должны совпасть метки в окошке когда ставишь диски!

PS don't pull the whole fork out unless you're going to change the springs leave the forks in only pull the bottom part off of the fork while it's on the motorcycle. There is an allen wrench screw up underneath the very front of the fork

Thanks for this! I need to replace my choke cable...it looks very doable now!

Thanks Sr 🍺🍻

What size is the crush washer on the jet with then screen

Thanks for posting this series John I am trying to get a 1200 GW that was abandoned since 2011 going again as my winter project.

Great video

Where does the compressor line go tnhat puts air in the forks ? I didnt see it on your stripdown... thanks

Ill be taking mine off of my 84 interstate on tuesday, thanks for the vid!

oh deer, always lay the new plates in fresh oil before reassemble. yes, it will be a mash

Pardon me sir, I hope to enlighten you on the purpose of the tapered needle screw that is on the bottom of the bowl is for draining the carburetor for off season lay up of the motorcycle. 👍

You're so lucky you didn't have to deal with those annoying air intake hoses the dangle down and getting the way of installing the carburetors

Yep a well produced video. I didnt realise they had a dry clutch.. thanks

Great john, I’m gonna try to clean my carbs cause one of the four cylinders isn’t working and I think it’s a fuel problem. Your videos are very helpfull and I now dare to take it on. I let you know the result. Grtz Robbie

That screw on the bottom of the bowl is a bowl so you can drain your carburetors for storage

My plastic cover is warped where the opening is over the top of the carburetor assembly. This causes dirt to get past the air filter. Where can I find one of those plastic covers?

I watched you and got the carb out , cleaned, back on and rode off.

Thank you man helpful

Good job

so how did you put the clutch basket back . " The re build is the exact reverse of the dismantle" you've got two helical gears in opposition and 4 pins to line up the oil pump. How did you do this ?

Good joooobs !!! Thanks prof video!!! 👍✌️

What country in GB you from/in (I'm going to go with England, trying my best to decipher.. lol) ? Thanks for the vid, just picked up a 1200 and everything is froze, so very helpful, thank you. Cheers!

Thanks for sharing! A bike shop would charge a fortune for this, and its not all that dificult! Once you know.

Thanks again for the videos. I just bought one for $1000 and it's sat for a few years or more. The guy is gonna deliver it for me tomorrow and I can't wait to start working on it to get it running.

Thanks for sharing

I just bought one of these and I think I'm gonna have to take the carbs off and clean them

Good job

The conclusion of the trilogy. Very informative, thanks. Now I just need to go out and do mine. I'm thinking one of the float valve screens is blocked, it'll start and idle on four cylinders, and even rev well, but once I start actually heading out it drops a cylinder and doesn't get it back until it idles for a while.

Thanks for your video. J planning to buy one 1200 Aspencade and this video help me a lot

Can’t find screw to remove speed sensor

Great video, my 84 is cutting back as well, bowls have never been removed or cleaned, I think some trash has gotten in the main jet, but this isn't as bad as I assumed it to be, see my video on removing the engine to replace the stator, Again Great job and video.

Brilliant video ,hardest part for me was the oil pump sprocket has 4 pins that locate into the back of the basket. They were a tad tricky . also getting the fairing off what a pain in the arse.

I have a gl1200 and those lights but never thought of doing this. Thanks definitely on the to do list

Same problem with my 1985 gl 1200 been off the road just over four years ,replaced the coils,ht leads and plugs have come to the same conclusion. I used one of the infra red spot handheld thermometers on the exhaust pipes and found two were at lower temperatures, pulled the plugs and found they were sooted so obviously running too rich ,I have the manual but seeing someone doing the job and the tips are very helpful thanks for making the video and posting it

You don’t need a video, you need a genuine Honda shop manual that will tell you where the pilot screws are and also the entirety of the carb cleaning process.

Thank you John. Good job on the videos ! You took the time to explain what you were doing and showed us how to do it. Nice work. Cheers ! I have two 84 Aspencade bikes and need to do the carbs on both. Been dreading the job until I found your video. Thanks again from Alpena Michigan. USA.

You sir have the patience of an angel. Thank you for this most informative video.

im using this now to remove my carbs but cant see how you disconnect the throttle and choke cables

Zero laptop connections required, no new bios downloaded and updated, no failure reports deleted, no softwares updated - 'the intention of a combustion engine is to burn fuel to make my vehicles move' - really a great job, well done! All three episodes a pleasure to watch, my compliments - thank you very much sir!

I can't get enough on the right side. The spring is bottomed out. Can I bend something or trim the screw?

how do u remove the idle jet.

Hello can you tell me how you removed the secondary air supply and how you plugged the intake holes and did the block off plate on the bottom of carb and any other thing I need to do thanks for your help.

Those carbs have a tiny mesh filter on the needle and seat part .They are bad to stop up. I removed mine now it runs like a race car.

I have a lot of goldwing parts 84 thru 86 mostly aspencade stuff . If ya need some parts call me at 336-860-8710 I live in Mayodan N.C. thx

John, thanks for the great videos, I’m getting an 87 Goldwing from a buddy this is one of the two items I need to complete. I’m in Lynden, Washington, U.S.A.
