Hello All,
Well, as you all recall I got a 1981 Goldwing for nothing from a neighbor, it would not run, so I began tearing it down and it appeared the timing belt was out to lunch on both sides, left about 100 degrees and the right about 90 degrees.
Over the Weekend I tore the heads off and ALL THE VALVES ARE BADLY BENT, the pistons appear to be fine.
I still don't know the condition of the rest of the bike (Carbs, brakes, electrical system)
How would you proceed, I would like to save this machine, but would like to get the valves done as inexpensive as possible, does anyone have suggestions for me?
Thanks all in advance,
Rick
