I have a '91 Honda Goldwing 1500. Just did this. First you peel back the rubber from around the mirrors... the top chrome piece and the grill right above the headlight are each held in place with 1 screw each side under that rubber. (The top chrome piece has a clip in the middle bottom which requires a lift and pull to release). 2 screws will remove the small plastic grill right under the headlights. This will expose 4 10mm bolts (2 top and 2 bottom) that hold in the headlight assy. Remove the assy. and unplug the one multiplug connecting it... Flip the headlight face down and remove the boot and plug to the headlight bulb. You will see a clip that holds in the bulb. Flip it up and replace the bulb(s).

No reverse was not available till 1988 GL1500
The carburetors used on the Honda GL 1500 1988 are produced by the Keihin Corporation, with headquarters in Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo.
No, the engine mounts are totally different. The six cylinder 1500 engine will definitely not fit into the 1200 frame calculated for a four cylinder engine. Experts don't think this has ever been attepmted.
In a word, NO. I have a 1982 Goldwing Aspencade and no reverse. No reverse until the 1500's came out in 1988.
timing belt on the 1988 goldwing gl 1500 should be changed out every 5 years or 50,000 miles, what ever comes first honda says every 100,000 miles
I have been using Motul 10w40 for as long, runs great and no problems. Find it at your local dealer.
A complete listing and diagram of the 1988 Honda fuses can be found on the inside cover of the fuse box. The location of the headlight fuse will be included in the listing.
NO!.i need one for the 88 and was told there diffrent.i think the 88 is one of a kind.something about the disk breaks
yes along with the headlight
The oil drain plug is located on the underside of the engine directly below the filler hole. The head of the bolt will need a 17mm socket to remove.
take old one out, install new one.. :-)
