Charlie,
OK this is something new then Charlie. What are you talking about? I only know about the car headlight you can get at auto stores. Where can I get the reflector and the separate bulb? Thanks, Bob

Hi Bob,
Nope, I just carry the little H4 headlight bulb. The reflector assembly is a separate piece. Cheers,
Charlie

Charlie,Just found this e-mail from you again and was wondering. Do you actually carry ( as a spare ) a big car headlight with you when you ride? Takes up a lot of space right? Just wondering. Thanks, Bob

Hi Bob, In the right toolbox I carry an ignition coil, dist. cap, rotor, points, condenser, plugs, and fuses. I've never used any of it but one plug and a coil in the last 22k miles. I carry a coil because one (a two month old American made Echlin) failed while out on a ride with several Goldwing riders. I'm using a Bosch "Blue Coil" now so will probably never use the spare, but better safe than sorry. The only other spares I normally carry are headlight and taillight bulbs (both Halogen), throttle and clutch cables. May carry a few more items for longer voyages this summer. Cheers, Charlie

Gents,In a recent thread I asked about Loop reliability and the discussion, for me, was great. Feedback was excellent. Seems like part of Loop reliability is that we are riding 30+ year old bikes and we must be reasonable about the parts that may fail.Dave Otis wrote an e-mail stating what he carries with him in an eventuality ---- I carry a kit with plugs,
points, condenser, fuel screens, a few extra carb parts, fuel line and misc
nuts and bolts for emergency situations. This seems reasonable and I have heard of guys carrying similar parts on much newer bikes.Just wondering if anyone else carrys anything else. I have heard of guys carrying u-joints (parts book names it a "double joint") and other guys say that if you don't horse the clutch you won't break your u-joint. Just wondering about other parts that may be weak.Thanks and Merry Christmas to all. Bob Hawkes
