3 – About the Honda GL500 Interstate

Purchased a 1983 Honda Silverwing (GL500i) a couple of months ago.  $1,000 from an owner that apparently wasn’t too interested in working on it. Took all of the front fairings off (real pain in the rear) and replaced the clutch cable already. Looks pretty good naked 😉 but still have a lot to do with a small link by the clutch pedal, either new fork seals or seal repair tool, and some unidentified leak at the rear (could be differential or brake, not sure yet). At least it starts and seem to sound ok. Still need to work driving though as it seems to have trouble when on an incline.
