Hello From Maine

[Richard Nangle]

Richard Nangle. I just bought an 84 Goldwing with a Terraplane. I'm having it reupholstered and am hoping to find a latch for closing the top or at least a good photo of what the original looked like so that I can try to duplicate it. I didn't know if I was going to like it at first, but both my wife and I are enjoying our rides very much.

Welcome to the forum from PA. I'm not completely certain but I think a simple Jeep hood bungee type latch is all that was used.

Thanks brianinpa. That makes sense. I'll hunt one down.

This looks an awful lot like it. Can't say for dimensions though.

Richard, Welcome from Ottawa. Not too far from Maine. I get to the coast every few years. Went to the Owl's Head Transpo Museum - great. Mike
