Timing Belt Change Link or Location?

[Weezyrider]

Can someone please point me in the right direction for the step by step info?   I've wasted a lot of time searching and no one ever posts a link, and i sure can't find it in the shoptalk section!  Closest i got was a brief description of how to inspect the belts, then "follow shop manual instructions to change belts".  Thanks in advance!

Heres a write up: http://www.valkyrieriders.com/shoptalk/carlbelts.htm

This info came from here: http://www.valkyrieriders.com/shoptalk/

Lots of useful info.

I appreciate the response,  but those are the exact places I've already been.  I'm looking for step by step instructions.

Look in the service manual pg. 8-5 and 27

I don't know when and where I downloaded it.

The shop manual you can have, too:

Great write up!  Mike is this your work? 
I did this so many times while chasing an oil leak, that I can do it in my sleep.

If you search on GL1500 timing belts there are plenty of videos on changing timing belts on a 1500 Goldwing. I assume they're the same as the Valk except the Wing has a lot of plastic to remove.

Mike, Thank You!  Excellent write up, exactly what i need!  One thing tho, the write up mentions turning the crankshaft "clockwise" to line up the marks.  When I did valve clearances the instructions said "counterclockwise" .  Should this be done rotating "clockwise"?  Looking at it from the front of bike of course.  Thanks

This write-up wasn't made by me.
I don't know where I found and saved it years ago.

And thanks for mentioning this - You are right!

It should read counter-clockwise in fact!

I've changed that - new link here:
