She was parked outside in the yard at work and the wind blew a length of angle iron onto the fuel tank. The tank is painted with candy gold so it’s pretty much impossible to colour match a touch up. I’ve ordered a new black tank to match the side panels.
Honda Goldwing GL1200 timing belts
Richard brought his Goldwing into work to get the timing belts replaced. It was a relatively straightforward job, just the thought that if I set the timing wrong the engine could be damaged made it a little nerve racking. Fortunately it all worked out well. It still needs a new choke cable, after 40 years the original has seized up. That’s a job for another day.
Side panel attached
I bought some M8x20mm stainless steel PCB stand offs and some fancy low profile black screws.

I made a mudguard support bracket from the same aluminium plate that I used to make the indicator mounting bracket. Looks good painted with the shorty mudguard. The handlebars look good painted too.
