Is there a Recommended belt interval for Honda GL1000?
I submit that the GL1000 engine puts more stress on its belts than a typical car does (via higher performance cams and much higher redline.) There is no definitive, non-contradictory recommendation from Honda regarding GL1000 cam belt interval. I’m quite happy with the conservative recommendation I make.
What happens if the belt tension is wrong on a GL1000?
