It's a easy repair replacing the bolt. The bolt shears the head off and drops it in the engine it's a major failure. But replacing the the bolt is easy. Pull the Evap Canister, Starter/Gen, Clutch Cover. Pull bolt replace with new bolt, replace clutch cover gasket. Bolt can fail on 6MT or DCT.

With or without fuel tank removal ?
@wingingit94932 ай бұрын
@@hanspraet332 You don't have to remove the fuel tank. There is a well known Goldwing mechanic that thinks the tank has to be removed. Look at your bike. Removing the fuel tank is a waste of time. Pull the evap can and coolant overflow and there is plenty of room to work it. I have the parts to do mine and was going to replace it over the winter myself. But now that there is going to be a recall and the fuel pump recall needs to be done. I will just let a dealer screw with this plastic fantastic. I have a Yamaha MT-09 to ride while the Wing is in the shop.

Hi Chris-Really appreciate you getting this information presented to the Gold Wing community. In our local ride group here in Wisconsin, there are 5 other Gold Wing riders...4 of which have 2018 models. I did pass along your PSA video to them today and they were very appreciative. It will be interesting to find out more as information becomes available. Thanks again.

DFW Honda told me today that my 2021 manual transmission is in the range of VINs in the recall. They are currently repairing their sales floor bikes and has put me on a call list when ready to repair sold bikes. Honda estimates this being a 6 hour job but that typically means an 8-10 hour task.

I just took a 2700mi trip on mine a few weeks ago and still would have gone on the same trip even if I'd have gotten this notice prior. Heck, I still haven't completed the fuel pump recall on mine and I've got 27k miles on the bike. I'll bring it in around 30k and have them see if my fuel pump is affected and if it needs this completed too once I receive the notification. I figured it'd be a good time for them to do the air filter then too. I am a little frustrated that now there's 2 potential recalls on my bike, but I will say, Honda has always been great about addressing issues with their 4-wheeled and 2-wheeled vehicles. Many manufacturers seem to try and sweep things under the rug until they're pervasive enough to ignore anymore.

I do have a question for others here. I purchased a 2023 DCT this year. (Goldwing #6) When I start the engine I have a weird whirring/whistling noise that is very noticeable until the engine warms up completely. Almost like a high-pitched exhaust leak. I don't have a clue. Nor does my local dealership. Any ideas? It's a bit irritating but I will continue to ride unless I am told otherwise by big Honda. Thanks Thanks CM!

Regarding the fuel pump issue. A local independent shop owner who previously worked for a multi-line dealer for 30 years (Honda, Yamaha, Harley) had his AND his wife's Wings quit running due to the fuel pumps going bad. Luckly there weren't far from home but needed a trailer ride home. Obviously he did the repairs himself.

I'm not sure what all the worry is over. They remove the ISG and the clutch cover, unscrew a bolt, and put a new one in its place. It's not like they are tearing the whole engine apart, they are just removing one cover. My bigger concern is that they should also be replacing the ISG bolt while they have the ISG removed.

Respect for what makes you comfortable, no judgment... But I've never viewed occasional recalls as a big deal. They find an issue, it gets fixed at no cost to the owner. So just curious how that felt concerning enough to you to actually sell your bike over it? Especially since it's fairly rare. Did you know that yours was affected? Just curious how it played out and your thought process. Did you go with another bike? Thanks.

I have a 2020 GW bagger, bought as second owner in 2023, the bike had a recall for engine stall and ECU update, fuel pump recall last september. despite of fuel pump never been an issue, engine stall happen quite few times. for sure I will udergoing this new recall... what i have expirenced 3 or 4 times since now is the infotainment display reboot. While riding display went blank and reboot as for switching on, with the warning msg displayed to click OK, no engine problem such as power lost, misfire, MIL switching on. first time happen i thought it was for the Android Auto wireless connection, so I switch to cable connection but it happen again and it happens also without any phone connected to the bike it seems there is a power black out for one second, and reboot.

Cruiseman, get your facts straight! The engine does not have to be removed or any major disassembly. The fuel tank needs to be removed and the ISG, then a rear engine cover removed to gain access to the bolt. Other than being a bit time consuming it is a relatively simple repair. If the dealer has the bolt on hand it is easily a one day repair. Maybe four hours.

My 2018 MT bike had this bolt failure in April 2024. My dealer, Beaverton Motorcycles in Oregon finally got the bike repaired in July 2024. It was repaired under my extended warranty BUT, the dealer rep at first reported that Honda was NOT going to cover this repair given 115k miles on my odometer. However, I complained that this should not affect the warranty as there were no mileage limitations stated in the warranty. My dealer was finally able to gain approval for the repair. My dealer claimed that my UBS bolt was "checked" and is "in fine condition" and is now properly torqued and is fine. The bike runs great now!
