Honda Gold Wing description

1978 Honda GL1000 Goldwing.

Bought this in the spring and was told wasn't going to need much of anything-well that was a crock!!!!!!!!

The title says there is a mileage descrepency-don't know why-speedometer seems to keep accurate mileage.

 

I have replaced the fuel petcock,all seals around the water pump,swapped out the right front caliper,did a complete tune up-also flushed/cleaned the cooling system and put in new antifreeze. 

It has a windjammer fairing-I have the lower fairings to match but won't go on with crash bars.

I have almost an entire parts bike to go with this-complete drive train plus lots of other parts.

I was going to start rebuilding the systems one at a time but I just don't have the time or interest in doing it-to that end I have new fork seals and dust covers,everything to rebuild the braking systems,intake tube seals,kit for air cutoff and exhaust seals.

I put bags and trunk on around a month ago-not honda but functional and gives you more rear lights.

 

The first picture shows the crash bars I put on it-the second picture shows the crash bars that were on it when I got it (I have two sets of these).

In the second picture you will note the side cover is not on-I replaced the twist lock pins on both sides so both covers are on there.

If you need more info or are in the area and want to see it let me know.

OEMs Plug into Electric Bikes

Sat, 01 Nov 2008

KTM introduced its prototype electric motorcycle earlier this week, and electric bike manufacturer Zero Motorcycles almost immediately responded by opening sales on its 2009 Zero X dirt bike (look for our review of the 2008 model next week!). But these two companies aren’t the only ones exploring the possibilities of electric-powered motorcycles. In September, Japan’s largest industrial information journal Nikkei Business Daily reported that both Honda and Yamaha have set target dates for launching their own electric-powered motorcycles.

Maybe the Evo class is the future for WSB?

Thu, 05 May 2011

Did we see the future of World Superbike racing last weekend at the BSB event? Possibly, but only if everyone is on Evo spec machines in 2012. By setting the 2nd fastest lap in race one and running second for a while in race two, the brilliant Alex Lowes proved that with a good grid position an Evo spec machine can be competitive for part race distance at least.
