RE: Red 75 GL1000 - CA200_imp - 01-26-2016

I had a 94 when I worked at a big dealer in the 90s and was the go
to guy (because I was so old - late 30s or so ) for the Wing customers.
The dealer always sent us parts & acc. guys to the Davis rally in Iowa every year and made us ride some of the old used Wings out there. Most of them were pretty worn and tired. After one I rode home with a old unit and the next morning I pushed it out of the garage and tried to start it . It just started then died, I had it in gear
so I hit the starter with the clutch pulled in - the bike lurched forward and over I went in my own driveway! I yelled for the wife
to get it upright . I still made it in to work in time.
