For Sale is Lucy, my 1981 Honda GL1100 Goldwing Interstate. I originally purchased this bike as a barn find in 2001. I restored it then to a bright GM Torch Red and rode it out west to Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming on 3 different occasions. Then in 2005, I became very ill and the bike sat neglected for nearly a decade. Over the Christmas holidays of of 2015, the bike was brought to me by trailer from Kentucky to where I now live on the Pan Handle Gulf Coast of Florida. I just finished a complete frame up restoration. I painted the frame and associated parts with Gloss Black. I clear coated nearly every bolt and nut and then painted the body parts a GM Steel Blue. It turned out to be the BEST Paint jobb I have ever accomplished. I rebuilt nearly every part of the bike. I installed rebuilt kits or replaced the Water Pump, Front Forks, Stator and Voltage Regulator, The Power Supply for the Gauges, The Fuse Box, Both Master Cylinders, Rear Shocks, Brake Pads, Wheel Bearings, Cables, had the rear engine cover Chrome Played, replaced Starter motor and Solenoid and Battery. In the title of this listing, I mentioned that this restoration was 95% complete. The bike is ready to ride, but I know of 2 issues that still need attention. The front brake squeaks and the carbs are still not 100% correct. There is a noticeable hesitation on take off and during cruise. You can hear and see more about the bike on You Tube. Just search GL1100 I Call Her Lucy on You Tube for a video I recorded minutes before making this listing. The bike is NOT perfect. The buyer of any bike this old needs to be familiar with a wrench and tool kit. However, you will be hard pressed to find a 1981 GL1100 in better condition. The bike is in Fort Walton Beach, Florida. I would be happy to help ride it a portion of the way to meet a buyer. In short, I will do what I can to help the buyer and to answer any questions. I am in the market for a Valkyrie Interstate if you are looking to trade. God Bless and have a great day!!! I keep thinking of more to add about this listing.The rear spoiler has a brand new LED brake light. I mage this spoiler by cuttong down a spoiler from a Honda Accord from a Junk Yard. The Carbs all have rebuild kits freshly installed. - More To Come I am sure.

The first pics are of the day I found her and then sandblasting the frame, painting the frame parts, the engine restoration and then the body paint and assembly and finally the super cool spoiler I built for the trunk. That sets this bike off in my opinion.
