FreezyRider Posted September 8, 2012 Share #1 Posted September 8, 2012 This is from the gl1800 rider's forum, as such it is directed specifically toward the Wing.. However the concepts apply to all bikes. This is a long read but worth your time. If we all practiced this, it could save lives. http://gl1800riders.com/forums/showthread.php?329608-SLOW-speed-control-and-Tighter-turning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eck Posted September 8, 2012 Share #2 Posted September 8, 2012 Keep in mind these instructions apply to a GW that is finely tuned with engine idle set properly...(sometimes set just a little higher then normal). I do not believe all the instructions are worthy of merit..like, Side notes: 1. if you ware concerned with dropping your machine, put some of the foam pipe insulation around your crash bars I turely do not believe foam pipe insulation will protect the crash bars when one is moving in a forward motion and drops the bike..No way will the foam insulation protect anything. The application of foam insulation pertains to laying the bike over on its side when it is NOT IN MOTION, like if you were going to change the rear tire....
