Honda Gold Wing description

Up for auction is my 1975 Honda GL 1000 Goldwing with just 7,162 Miles!  I purchased this bike from the second owner in 2005.  The second owner purchased it in 1976 so he was effectively the first owner.  Upon purchasing the bike I replaced the fuel pump, tires and rebuilt the carbs with  Randakk carb rebuild kit.  I put less than one thousand miles on it and stored it away occasionally going into storage and starting and running it.  I kept Stab-il additive in the fuel at all times.  I recently sold my storage facility and am now selling my bikes and one of my automobiles. 

This is an unmolested survivor with very few miles.  Currently it is running but could use a good carb cleaning as it idles rough.  The bike pulls good running through the gears.  I suspect the idle circuit needs to be cleaned but frankly I haven't the time or inclination anymore to go through it.   The horn, lights and turn signals all work as they should including the slightly annoying turn indicator buzzer.  Cosmetically it is very clean except for a small half dollar size spot where the paint is rubbed off on the left side of the "tank" which is visible in one of the pictures.  The tool kit is in the bike and I have the original owners manual.  The exhaust is complete however there are some small holes in the underside.

You can certainly find a better running bike but nothing a good tune up shouldn't cure.  However will be hard to find one with fewer miles and all original condition.

If you thought the license test was hard in America…

Thu, 28 Apr 2011

I’ll be the first to admit that the procedure to get a motorcycle endorsement (and a car license for that matter) in this country is incredibly easy. If you’re smart, you sit in a classroom for a few hours, answer some basic questions, learn all the controls, perform a simple riding test, and you’re off to the races.  Look at what the Japanese have to do to get their certification!

2010-2011 Honda Shadow VT750 Recall

Mon, 13 Jun 2011

Honda has initiated a recall campaign for certain 2010-2011 Shadow series cruisers due to a problem with their bank angle sensors. According to documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the bank angle sensors may incorrectly read that the motorcycle is leaning. The bank sensor uses a weighted pendulum that swings into a motorcycle’s lean.

Honda CBR250R Sticking Around for 2014, Getting Facelift to Match New CBR300R

Mon, 28 Oct 2013

Earlier this month, Honda unveiled a new CBR300R model at the CIMAMotor show in Chongqing, China. The assumption was the 286cc CBR300R would replace the CBR250R as Honda’s entry-level sportbike. The CBR250R isn’t completely disappearing however, as Honda announced the 2014 version will be appearing at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show, Nov.
