Thanks for the videos on all the issues with the new Goldwing. I love the Goldwing and considering importing one as my husband and I live in the Caribbean, Trinidad and Tobago.
In past video you said its was the same rear shock as the previous 2017 and earlier models. Does the old model have a rebound adjustment by a screw? Also please make a video so us previous model guys can properly remove and box up front forks to send then to you. My 2016 F6B could use your upgrade. Could include stem bering and rear R&R also. Thanks Max !
Thanks for the video max. If it was me I would have you change our the shocks and disable that ride adjustment mode thing. My thought is after I set the bike suspension I don't want it to change in any mode. Actually I think the whole mode thing is rediculos anyway.
Why is it that everyone is having problems with the 18+ Goldwings and my 96 doesn't? It starts and runs trouble free every day. The new ones are getting to be like a Harley! Fix or repair frequently! Tie rod issues, Instrument panels malfunctioning and fogging up, proximity keys not working on compartment that opens up the gas cap, footpegs wearing out at 10K miles and many more things! I watch these videos and I really don't think that I would buy a new one! Honda has a lot of work to do to improve their bikes!
There's insane lists of tragic problems with GL1500s... You don't hear about them presently because the internet had barely been invented, there was no such thing as RUclips or even a chat forum. Wait until your alternator fails and you see what that costs, then call me back!
But why on a new bike, it just rolled off the line... My 2002 has never had the shocked messed with, it's got over 40,000 miles. When I bought my 2002, I almost empty the savings & broke the bank to spring for a 2018... Thank goodness my guardian angel knock some sence to me and settle for a third owner bike in very good condition. Not a money pit!!!
Excellent explanation of the workings of the rear suspension
thanks Max for all the great info you povide. cant wait to get my wing and have you work on it
Looking forward to helping you!

With the little bells and whistles Honda gives u in that it is more than worth giving them up for your support suspension.
Great lesson. Thank you
You are welcome!
I realize I'm late to the presentation, but great explanation. 👍
Better late than never! My channel lives on!!!

@@Traxxion I greatly appreciate your videos and the fact that you responded. Thanks.
Hi,
So the rear suspension on the Goldwing Bagger can only be adjusted for preload ( manueel ).
Is that correct ?
Yes. It is much better than the electric system, which is terrible.
@@Traxxion Thanks for replay !!
Where is the preloadadjuster mounted
@@nipama1 behind right side cover.
@@Traxxion Thanks!!👍
