Well well well... this is an interesting development
The city has launched a small claims court case against Enbridge Gas and Aecon for $25K... Seems the city feels they did not do their job properly in the road cut... What a surprise. I have been included as a courtesy by the city
I am going to ask for a WITHOUT PREJUDICE meeting with the lawyer representing Enbridge and Aecon to get a quick settlement and reduce costs.

Ok, 16 July is court date. I was going to fix the bike and put it back on the road...because I am jonesing... but lawyer advised ... ok told me under no circumstances. 1. It would allow them to say the bike is back on the road, so its OK 2. if i got into another accident... who fixes what would be a real issue So my wife suggested I buy a cheap bike to ride to get the need out of my system. I found a 84 GW 1200 Standard on sale at KIJIJI... wanted $1500 for it (way below market value), offered $600... I bought it for $700. It was well cared for by an older rider who has leg issues and can not keep the bike up anymore as he is 80 - (blue pill jokes at the time) Anyways Im back on two wheels, I love the lightness of the bike, hate the cramped foot space, miss the engine noise   Andrew |

At least you are in the wind! I'd like a deal like that.....old enough for cheap insurance, and don't mind driving it in winter (here, at least). |

That old Wing is in great condition!  Keep in mind the '84 wings had some stator problems, so if for some reason it conks out on you, that is the first thing I'd check. Not an expensive fix, but still a PITA if you're out somewhere and can't get home. |

Too often the city doesn't think about motorcycle riders when they do their work. Glad you weren't hurt too bad.

Glad to read that things are heading in a positive direction for you.
Great steal on the Wing and not too many of them without the bags and fairing. EagleEye is right about the stator and it's the achilles heal for the 84-86 Wing. Don't wash around the seat area as that's where the stator wiring runs. If you find the 3 heavy duty connectors then pack them full of silicon dielectric grease but check for burn marks or corrosion. When the connectors get corroded it sets up a high resistance and wipes out the stator. My first wing was an 86 in great shape and low miles. But I rode to see my parents one weekend and decided to wash it. Wrong answer and we got about halfway to Seattle (from Tri-Cities) before the battery died. The engine has to come out since the stator is inside the back cover. Haven't priced one in decades but they were about $400 back then. Mine was still under a 90 day warranty so the dealership sent me the parts and I R&R'd the stator myself.

UPDATE
The earlier court date was moved to DEC 5.
Received a bully letter from the lawyer of Consumers Gas and Acon. Showed it to my lawyer friend, he said for me to reply to them and cc the courts that this was abusive of me the plaintif and of the court systems. Does not think the Judge will be pleased.
