4 cylinder Wing registry.
Hi guys, could you please take a few minutes to go
here;http://www.micapeak.com/reg/bikes/WING4/
and fill out the registry page for your 4 cylinder Wing. This info will prove to be quite helpful down the road and will help to strenghten the 4 cylinder Wing ownership base as well as helping us to know how many 4 cylinder Wings are still on the road today.
You don't have to fill in all the blanks, just the important ones like VIN, year and mileage.

Re: 4 cylinder Wing registry.

Vic , I somewhat feel as BlackGold is saying , its not if you run a chop shop , but what they could do with YOUR info . Just like what they can do with any other personal info some could get ahold of . My wing was bought and paid for leagally , From a Doctor who took incredible care of now my wing , thats about the only personal info I would care to share . For any leagal reasons I would gladly disclose any personal info as such , but to throw it out there for no reason , I'm unconfertable also in that disclosure . The only difference is I have all these stock 82 GL1100 parts I will never use again . What you are doing is great for someone like me to get rid of all those parts I'll never use . But I am comfy where those parts are , by word of mouth I'll get them out or if I hear of anyone looking for such parts , great . Its this site an our other sister site that I may be able to do that in time , I'm in no hurry . But on the other hand I do se the benifit of a that info though . In closing just like ( Attilla the Hun !!! )

Z, have you got your license plate covered so no one can get that info?
Your license plate number will tell everything about you.
The info you put in the registry is only good for folks who are interested in 4 cylinder Wings and as I have previously stated you only need to place the last six digits of the VIN and the year of your bike in the registry if you are a very private person or insecure about giving out your info.

I am with you on this one, the last 6 numbers of the VIN with the year model are all thats neded to ring a bike. It is possible that the VIN range is small on some years for a given market, with only the last 6 differing. Esp with models with low production runs, like the 1200 plain jane and the K3/KZ 1000 models.bandanna wrote:ALARM BELLS ARE RINGING HERE,AND FAIRLY LOUD.

They say WHY?, I say why not.
If God had intended motor cycles to be standard, he would'nt have given us the hacksaw.

Z, have you got your license plate covered so no one can get that info ??? It IS against the law to cover you plates , at lease in Northern Ontario where I live . if you are a very private person or insecure about giving out your info. !!! Do you not see any and all pics and info I have provided in two GL sites ??? does that say ( If I'm a private person ) ??? I have put that pics and info up to maybe help someone , and they only have to ask , They DO NOT need my VIN . For that , and if they do want it they can dang well work at getting it . Thats not insecure about NOT giving out personal info . Thats privacy . And in saying all this , if you think I may have something to hide , !!! Would you like me to get some kind of Police report to for you're oun curiousity ????? You Vic , and any other people know about my GL . Along with the pics and info I have provided . If YOU personally for some reason would like my VIN , to satify your curiousity I can provide it , if you swear to not put it up on that Registary Site . ( I think that if anymore we should carry on to private Email Please )

Maybe you guys are right. We shouldn't even be using the internet because the thieves and dishonest people of this world can trace us, directly to our homes, if they want to, through the internet servers we use.
In this day and age it might just be best not to disclose anything to anyone, lock your doors and unlist your phone number and take the number off the front of your house and hide under the couch so no one can spy on you through the windows with high calibre surveillance equipment.
******************
Geez guys, is your world really that bad? It's just a registry for Gold Wings that's all, but, I will certainly ponder over your concerns and ask a lot of questions to alleviate your curiosity and concerns.
FYI, do you realize that all the frame and engine serial numbers for Gold Wings ever built are freely available on the internet? Any dishonest person could choose any of those numbers if they wanted to become a thief. What is to stop the dishonest from using any of those numbers at random?
The sole purpose of this registry is to get guys with Wings together to get to know one another by presenting ourselves as a group comprised of real individuals rather than anonymous characters on the internet. Four cylinder Wings are thinning as the years go by and more and more people sell off their bikes for parts rather than keeping them running or selling them complete to someone who may choose the wonderful experience of a 4 cylinder Wing. I suppose if you don't have a passion for four cylinder Wings it just doesn't matter, but, for me, my 4 cylinder GL1200 is very important and exactly why I placed it on the registry.
That's what any registry is for, to highlight the things that are important.

the reason the VINs are prominant is for use by moter vehicle and law enforcement officials. as a former repo man, i could make keys to ANY vehicle with the last 8 numbers of the VIN. the combination of personal info and VIN # makes your wing an easy target. with the cost of parts going up there is a place for stolen GW parts. i've been offered many a stolen bike for low bucks as long as i "chop" it. as for bikers we, as a group, are a paranoid
bunch by nature. I've given it a lot of thought and i think i'll pass at this time.
SORRY VIC.............................T. busted busted

I won't be riding my Wing next to you T, you might glance over at my VIN and make a key for it then it'll be gone. I guess I'll have to keep it under a locked cover from now on. Thanks a lot T, you've made me afraid to drive my Wing in public and I can't afford to buy a private highway system, you've ruined my life forevermore and now my bike will just sit in a dark garage and rust away because I can't bring it out in the light where some dishonest so and so will see the VIN and copy it then make a key ....................etc. LOL
I guess maybe I'm just more trusting than you guys and it probably comes from realizing through years of experience that thieves and dishonest people will get whatever they want, anytime they want it, no matter how secure it is.
Ride safe guys, Vic
