I bought this bike a few months ago while I was still in Iraq. My father drove down to Wisconsin to pick it up.
82 Aspencade.
Yesterday was the first day back in my hometown visiting my parent's place with my wife and kids for about a month and a half before we head back to Iraq.
This was Saturday evening. First time sitting on a Goldwing.
Sunday after church the work began.
My Father lending a hand on Father's Day
Me lending a hand to my son.
Bags and fairing off. Starting to look like a normal bike now.
Engine guards and running boards off. Starting to look at the stock wiring.
Time to start doing maintenance. Also need to get some parts ordered to replace the running boards with some pegs, a headlight, taillights, blinkers etc.
I found that the seat is way to far forward and too low for me and the handlebars are to far back. I'm pretty tall and with the running boards still on my legs felt super cramped. I will need to raise the seat and get something straighter like a long style cafe racer seat. I want to change the seating position to be a bit more "rotated" forward so I might need to look at moving the pegs back and changing the shifter and brake levers.
