My 1980
Well, this is the place to document.i just got the 80. Last year of the standards. I have tons of parts for anyone wanting to go interstate route. This bike is candy muse red.it looks burgundy.anyhow i want to keep it as original as possible. I know crash bars were optional.i will keep those. I have tons to do.why is it every old goldwing is missing the battery sidecover? I have tried to post pictures unsuccessfully. I now own 5 goldwings.this is the only one i am keeping.

Re: My 1980
the left side cover is missing because they often are not quite reattached right when checking the battery.... Don't ask how I know

Yes, you could get them dressed in 81. But there was also still a Standard. The last Standard you could get was the 84 1200.doubleminded wrote: ↑Fri Dec 18, 2020 7:10 am snip............. I said last because i thought 81 they came with fairings and bags.thats interstate for me.

Re: My 1980
A cheap securing arrangement to connect safety wire is to use 1/16 inch ABS sheet with a wire staple punched through. Here's a pic of the pieces. Use ABS cement to attach to the cover: Used these on the trunk of my '85 to keep the lid from flopping forward.doubleminded wrote: ↑Fri Dec 18, 2020 7:10 am I am going to lowes and get some safety wire and put on both covers.they are about $50 on evay.
