Technical service bulletins and other communications the manufacturer sent dealers about this vehicle. Ask a dealer for the full document by its number.
- 10129823Honda technician newsletter - TPMS sensors aren't waterproof.
- 10115757Service news article - To prevent damage during shipping, leather-wrapped steering wheels come with a protective plastic covering. The easiest way to remove it during PDI is to grab the covering with both hands near the top of the steering wheel and pull it toward you, like you see here. The covering comes right off.
- 10108810Technician newsletter - When troubleshooting it is good to have all of the tools at your disposal. If you are diagnosing a power trunk lock remote control issue on a GL1800, there is a Honda tool that you may not know is capable of testing the trunk lock remote.
- 10099957Newsletter - the repair procedure for the secondary master cylinder (smc) recall IS very involved, so make sure to read through the entire bulletin before hand so you can visualize the procedures before you start. Not only will you be installing an updated smc and a new rear master cylinder, but it IS important to carefully follow each step in exact order so that the pedal brake line IS completely flushed of any contaminants.
- 10099874"Dealer message - effective immediately the secondary master cylinder (smc) kits for this recall are available on open order. As indicated in s/b gl1800 #23 and other communications about this recall, it IS absolutely critical that only pro honda dot 4 brake fluid be used during the repair procedure. To help ensure an adequate supply of brake fluid IS available for recall repairs, an additional allocation of pro honda dot 4 brake fluid will be shipped to dealers. The allocation IS based on your dealerships previously submitted gl1800 smc recall warranty claims."
- 10099488"Dealer message - on december 11, several sections of s/b gl1800 #23 were revised to include information for the repair of trike coversions."
- 10099350"Service bulletin - honda IS launching a safety recall of 2012-2015 gl1800/a and 2013-2015 gl1800b/bd motorcycles, and IS implementing a recall remedy for 2001-2010 and 2012 gl1800/a motorcycles already subject to safety recall JG6. Honda has determined that under conditions where the brake fluid IS subject to prolonged aging due to a lack of maintenance (i.e., the brake fluid IS not replaced for a long period of time despite the published maintenance schedule of replacement every 12,000 miles or two years, whichever comes first), deposits may form within the brake fluid. If sufficient deposits are formed, they can result in a malfunction of the secondary master cylinder, which may cause the rear brake to drag."
