Great bike. I have had 4 gold wings and a memeber of GWRRA for over 27 years. Rides better than any GW that I have every had. I have 104k on mine and my longest run was 1240 miles in 20 hr, the next day 600 miles and the next day 600 miles. Just got back from the smokie mts on 1400 mile trip. Was hauling my bike on a trailer and lost my seat. If any one knows where there is a factory seat for my 2002, please let me know. Ride safe, bike is top heavy especially when doing dead stick turns such as in middle of road. But when you get your feet up and roll the throttle, it is a great ride. Ran mine 90 to 110 all day long across the desert out west, not recommended but was riding hard. -

that is what mine is, but that one is in rough shape. I was of hopes someone on this site has up graded to an after market seat and would have one they would sell or let go. thank you for your response. I'm sure someone on here has one or know someone who does. How could I get more members on here to see my post. -

2nd gen muffler leak
maddog2498 replied to maddog2498's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
PLEASE NEED HELP ON MUFFLER LEAK. The power sports motorcycle shop in ocla fl changed my tire when I had a blow out on a trip. they messed up the wrap that goes around my pipe to makes muffler fit tight. I never had a problem taking off and putting back on but they crammed it back up in pipe and messed it up, and now I have a leak on right side. What and where can I get some more wrap to put back? Can not stand the sound only from one side. -
