When did the Honda GL1200 go out of production?
A: Honda made the GL1200 from 1984 to ’88 in several trim levels. It was frequently named the best touring bike in its time and still ranks as a bargain classic today. Some suffered from faulty stators, while others’ charging issues were traced to overheating of the stator wiring harness.

Are there any problems with Honda GL1100 carb?
Another problem you may come into when working with GL1100 carburetors is dealing with idle mixture screws that seem to be super glued into the carburetor bodies. They don’t always come out as easily as the GL1000 carb idle mixture screws do.

What was the problem with the Honda Gold Wing stator?
Some suffered from faulty stators, while others’ charging issues were traced to overheating of the stator wiring harness. The problem with the harness was eventually traced to heat buildup in the stator’s five-pin wiring connector due to electrical resistance between the pins in the connector.
Is there a way to bypass the stator?
This solution completely bypasses the stator by using a 12 volt battery to power the ignition system. Everything required can be purchased for under $50. It will work on all contact breaker point engines (old style), and some electronic controlled ignition (newer style) ones. The guide is for contact breaker systems.
How do you remove a nut from a stator?
1- To remove the nut, the flywheel must be locked in place or else it will simply turn. You can lock it in place by using a special tool. Alternatively, you can lock it this way: remove the spark plug and feed wire or rope down into the cylinder.

The workaround for connector burnout is to toss the connectors and solder the wires together in a staggered formation so no two solder joints adjoin. Have a look at the connector block on your brother’s bike.
Do you need an upgraded Honda Goldwing stator?
Upgraded, heavy-duty high quality stator that replaces the OEM stator in the Honda Goldwing 1000, 1100 and 1200 (non-fuel injected) models. Read this entire page all the way to the bottom before you order. You must understand and agree to the information provided before placing your order!
When to buy a new stator for your engine?
I devised this system when the stator on my Honda XR-100 got so weak that it couldn’t power the spark plug, preventing the engine from running. The stator on my model happened to be discontinued, and I didn’t want to buy a used one for over $100 when this particular stator is known for being weak and prone to failure.
What should I do if my Honda stator is weak?
Note that as written this system will bypass the CDI portion of your ignition system (if present) and replace it with a more traditional one. I devised this system when the stator on my Honda XR-100 got so weak that it couldn’t power the spark plug, preventing the engine from running.
