Clutch Failure: How To Rebuild your Clutch Slave Cylinder
Hydraulic clutch systems are typically out of sight, out of mind. Until you suddenly find yourself stranded! Not only that, this fairly common failure mode on the Goldwing can actually DESTROY your engine if you don't catch it quickly!

A very common complaint from Goldwing owners: They try to start their bike, the starter just spins, but the engine doesn't crank. Sometimes it's intermittent, sometimes it fails completely. We talk about the most common cause of this failure, and a simple and easy fix that costs less than $10 to do!

I've had several questions from members who want more information on the auxiliary power panel I have in my bike. This is used to add additional switched, fused circuits to be used for adding aftermarket electrical accessories. I show how I have mine set up, and talk about why you need one in the first place.

A review from goldwingdocs.com of Moto Solutions product "RainCoat." This product is for use on plexiglas, and causes it to shed rainwater, leaving you a clear view. It works great on motorcycles, but is also great for aircraft as well. It's also great for helmet visors. I tested it over a couple of weeks and about 1,500 miles and quite like it - it functions well. The main issue I had with it is that it needs to be reapplied reasonably often, particularly if you clean your windshield a lot. But if you live and ride somewhere that gets a lot of rain, this product is for you!
