1989 Honda Gold Wing

1989 HONDA GOLDWING GL1500, BEAUTIFUL WINEBERRY (DEEP MAROON) METALLIC, LOADED WITH USUAL GOLDWING AMENITIES AND LOTS MORE. EXCELLENT MECHANICAL AND APPEARANCE. REALLY SHARP LOOKING BIKE! FABRIC SEAT AND PASSENGER BACKREST, NEW TALL WINDSHIELD, CHROME LIGHT BAR AND LOTS MORE PLUS USUAL GOLDWING ++++REVERSE+++ AND JUST GETTING BROKEN IN WITH ONLY 64K MILES. VERY DETAILED MAINTENANCE RECORDS SHOWING EXCELLENT CARE MAKE IT EVEN BETTER. GOLDWING SET A NEW STANDARD FOR QUIET SMOOTH TOURING WITH THE FIRST GL1000 IN 1975 AND THE GL1500 WAS A QUANTUM LEAP FROM ANYTHING PREVIOUS. 6-CYLINDERS, WATER COOLED, SHAFT DRIVE, AND THE QUIETEST SMOOTHEST RIDE YET PUT THE 1500 IN A CLASS OF ITS' OWN. SOME EVEN PREFER THE 1500 TO THE NEWER GL1800 (SUPER BIKE FOR SURE) AS THE 1500 HAS SLIGHTLY MORE STORAGE SPACE, A HIGHER RATED TOTAL LOAD CAPACITY, AND A LITTLE SOFTER RIDE. GOLDWINGS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN KNOWN FOR RELIABILITY AND LONGEVITY AND THE 1500 RAISED THE BAR HERE EVEN HIGHER. MANY STILL GOING STRONG WITH 300K, 400K, OR MORE MILES. HAVE ACTUALLY SEEN A COUPLE OVER HALF A MILLION MILES, STILL GOING STRONG WITH NO OVERHAUL. STANDARD FEATURES ON THE 1989 MODEL INCLUDE: ---FACTORY AM/FM/CASSETTE RADIO WITH INTEGRATED INTERCOM SYSTEM ---ON-BOARD AIR COMPRESSOR FOR REAR SHOCK ADJUSTMENT AND EXTERNAL AIR SOURCE (YES, YOU CAN AIR UP YOUR OWN OR YOU HARLEY BUDDY'S TIRES) ---ELECTRONIC CRUISE CONTROL WITH INC/DECREASE AND RESUME JUST LIKE YOU CAR'S ++++LEGENDARY GOLDWING REVERSE++++++ MANY MANY EXTRAS ON THIS ONE. MOST SHOW IN PHOTOS: ---FABRIC SEATING AREA AND PASSENGER BACKREST ---RIDE OFF CENTER STAND (ALSO CALLED "POWER PARK" AS CAN PUT ON CENTER STAND WHILE STILL ON BIKE USING REVERSE) ---AIR WINGS - LOOK ALMOST NEW ---AFTERMARKET MUFFLERS THAT GIVE IT A LITTLE CHARACTER WITHOUT BEING OBNOXIOUS ---LOWER COWL TURN LIGHTS ---LED LIGHT TURN SIGNALS ON BOTTOM OF MIRRORS ---TAIL LIGHT MODULATOR (FLASHES LIGHTS WITH APPLICATION OF BRAKES - GREAT SAFETY FEATURE) ---CHROME PLATFORM TRAILER HITCH AND LIGHTED MUDFLAP LOTS AND LOTS OF CHROME INCLUDING: ---CHROME SADDLEBAG LIGHT BAR (ABOUT $400 NEW LONG TIME AGO) ---CHROME ROTOR COVERS WITH RING OF FIRE LIGHTS AND QUEEN LIGHTS ---ALL REFLECTORS (FAIRING, SADDLEBAGS, TRUNK) HAVE BEEN CHANGED TO LIGHTS SO REALLY LIGHTS UP AT NIGHT.

RUNS AND SHIFTS PERFECTLY AS STATED EARLIER AND WOULD NOT HESITATE TO TAKE IT ANYWHERE YOU CAN RIDE FROM HERE. EVEN WITH ALL THE EXTRA LIGHTS, EVERYTHING WORKS INCLUDING COMPRESSOR AND CRUISE CONTROL (FORGOT TO CHECK CASSETTE DECK BUT BET IT WORKS TOO) DOES HAVE A LITTLE FADING (VERY SLIGHT) ON THE LEFT SADDLEBAG LID (IT'S USUALLY THE RIGHT ??), AND THE TRUNK. TRUNK ALSO HAS A COUPLE OF NOTICABLE SCRATCHES. BUT -- NOTHING THAT TAKES AWAY FROM OVERALL SHARP LOOK OF BIKE. PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A ++++NO RESERVE+++ AUCTION. I WON'T RUN OR BID ON A RESERVE AUCTION BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO IDEA AT WHAT PRICE THE THING IS REALLY FOR SALE. THIS BIKE IS FOR SALE.
