Honda Gold Wing description

 For sale is a 1978 Honda Gold Wing GL1000. I bought it a few months ago and just don't have time to ride it.

New maintenance-free battery, spark plugs, and rear tire. Oil change as soon as I bought it. I also replaced the aftermarket seat with the correct 1978 OEM seat. The brakes work but could probably use some fine tuning. Timing belt cover was off when I bought it. I bought a set of replacement covers but haven't had the time to install them. I'll include the cover set.

Bike starts right up and runs well. Title in hand.
Message with questions.
I'll be around all weekend but after that I won't be in Chatham for about 2 or 3 weeks.

I've added a picture of an oil tanker to give you an idea of just how long the CBX's wheelbase really is.

In order to use footage from a Dorna-sanctioned MotoGP test session — say, for marketing or promotional reasons — a team must receive approval from Dorna. The process is tedious, and even if permission is granted, there are strict limitations as to what the material may or may not be used for. So when Honda decided to conduct its own private test (which Yamaha also joined), at the Circuit of the Americas, it was free from any and all Dorna mandates.
