Rode motorcycles maybe 30 miles in my 53 years, never had a motorcycle license or a Motorcycle until now!
The Bike is a 1982 Honda Goldwing Aspencade GL1100 I bought for $350.00.
It was hit by a car on the left side and damage is the front timing cover and the timing Pulley broke the leg guards bent and left Luggage box crushed, I noticed some cracks on the rear wheel rim spokes.
The bike ran from the accident location to his home 3 miles (approx) and never restarted since 2003. The bike was kept in a heated garage and Timing cover and pulley was replaced: In addition, the bent or crushed parts were purchased and in a box.
My question is...where the heck do I start? What do I do first...the battery is dead and I don't want to start it with out knowing if it is timed correctly first...per your forum!
I am a partially disabled Marine Corps Veteran and could use some knowledge here with my bike...I really want to ride bad and its almost August...Bottom line here...Im not Rockefeller $$$ I work but not rich! ...Thanks in Advance...Dale B
