Honda Gold Wing description

1978 goldwing 

This is a good looking old bike, with that said it is the original paint with all original emblems and shows normal wear for a 30+ year old bike. Runs and drives great !  I will do my best to describe the good and bad i have nothing to hide. This bike has no warranty as is !! I recommend you come to see it before you buy it or argue the price. I will ship but the buyer must arrange shipping at there own expense. The bike must be paid in full before it leaves to be shipped. Please ask any questions 

The Good:
 
weber 40 idf carbs and holley electric pump  ( brand new not rebuilt carbs ) made in spain carbs
c5 performance ignition
gl100 inverted comstars and rear brake
gl100 rear air shocks rebuilt and front suspension (not rebuilt)
mac headers with shortened v rod muscle mufflers
vdo center gauges
cbr1000rr handlebar switches and rear master cylinder
gl1100 rebuilt engine (With receipts)
corbin gunfighter seat
new battery with cbr600 regulator conversion and new stator
stainless steel braided brake lines

super clean fuel tank
randakk weber manifolds, grips, fuel filter

flanders superbike bars


The Bad:
       one cam shaft seal was damaged on install and weeps ( comes with new seal )
Needs fork seals 
carbs have a stumble around 1/2 throttle but they idle absolutely perfect and wot is amazing ( its fast)
overall the carbs really work great i would say there 98% correct and just need some fine tuning 
could use tires ( old and worn ) one has a dot from 2008 and other is 2010
worn original paint

2014 AMA Supercross – Anaheim 1 Results

Mon, 06 Jan 2014

KTM rookie Ken Roczen captured his first 450 class win in the AMA Supercross world championship, taking the season opener at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, Calif. An audience of 45,050 fans watched a clean race from the rookie while errors by veterans like James Stewart and three-time reigning champion Ryan Villopoto knocked them out of contention. Villopoto had a strong start, taking the holeshot and leading the first eight laps, just like the Kawasaki rider had done so often the last few seasons.

2014 Honda CTX700 and CTX700N Revealed, the First in a New Series Focused on Comfort, Technology and Experience

Honda pulled the covers off a new streetbike series aimed at younger, shorter riders.

2012 Honda Gold Wing Tour: Part 4

Fri, 20 May 2011

Yesterday aboard the 2012 Honda Gold Wing was quite an eye opener. I had shared my impressions of some of the upgrades to the new Wing in blog posts earlier in the week (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3), but these focused mostly on some comfort and convenience updates and the bike’s ability to eat up open stretches of pavement. But on this day we put the Wing to a completely different test: the Tail of the Dragon, US 129 in North Carolina.
