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.

Joey Dunlop on a V4 Honda at the '83 TT

Fri, 28 Sep 2012

Onboard video footage doesn't get a lot better than this: Joey Dunlop during practice at the TT in 1983 onboard a factory Honda RS850R. An 859cc ultra-short stroke V4 Honda that Joey mastered around The Island, later winning the TT Formula 1. Although the 'production' race, the RS850R stretched that to the limit.
