1989 Honda Gold Wing

Clear

1989 HONDA GOLDWING GL1500, BEAUTIFUL "COMMODORE BLUE" COLOR, ONLY 26K MILES, ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING CONDITION BOTH APPEARANCE AND MECHANICAL. AS CLOSE TO A NEW GL1500 AS ANY ONE I'VE SEEN IN A LONG WHILE. PAINT ALMOST PERFECT, PLASTIC IS EXCEPTIONALLY SHARP AND CRISP. ALWAYS GARAGED AND SHOWS. LOOK AT LETTERING ON HANDLEBAR CONTROLS AND EMBLEMS. THAT'S WHERE THE "CLOSE TO NEW" REALLY SHOWS. COLOR IS CALLED "COMMODORE BLUE" BY HONDA BUT LOOKS CLOSER TO A TEAL THAT IS MORE GREEN THAN BLUE. LOOKS MORE BLUE IN BRIGHT LIGHT. ONLY YEAR FOR THIS COLOR. EXCELLENT MECHANICAL CONDITION. RUNS AND SHIFTS PERFECTLY. NOT REALLY BROKEN IN WITH ONLY 26K AS 1500'S ARE KNOWN FOR GOING 300K, 400K, OR MORE WITHOUT OVERHAUL. LOOK AT THE PHOTOS. THEY TELL THE STORY. ALL THE USUAL GOLDWING AMENITIES (++REVERSE++, ETC) ON THIS ONE AND SOME NICE EXTRAS ALSO. GOLDWING STARTED A "WHOLE NEW DAY" IN TOURING FOR QUIET, SMOOTH, AND RELIABLE WITH THE FIRST ONE IN 1975. THE GL1500 WAS A QUANTUM LEAP FROM ANYTHING EARLIER WITH: ---6-CYLINDER "BOXER" STYLE ENGINE THAT REDLINES AT ONLY 5500 RPM. (PART OF WHY THEY LAST SO LONG) THAT IS THE QUIETEST SMOOTHEST ENGINE ON TWO WHEELS. ++++LEGENDARY GOLDWING REVERSE +++++ ---ELECTRONIC CRUISE CONTROL WITH ACCEL/DECEL/RESUME - WORKS JUST LIKE YOUR CAR'S. ---ON-BOARD AIR COMPRESSOR FOR REAR SHOCK ADJUSTMENT AND EXTERNAL AIR SOURCE. ---FACTORY AM/FM/CASSETTE RADIO WITH INTEGRATED INTERCOM SYSTEM SOME EVEN PREFER THE 1500 OVER THE NEWER GL1800 AS 1500 IS QUIETER, HAS MORE STORAGE SPACE, A HIGHER RATED LOAD CAPACITY, AND A SLIGHTLY MORE "CUSH" RIDE. NICE EXTRAS ON THIS ONE INCLUDING: ---LIGHTED UPPER TRUNK SPOILER (BRAKE LIGHT, NICE SAFETY FEATURE ALSO) ---"TULSA" TYPE AFTERMARKET VENTED WINDSHIELD ---CHROME DRIVING LIGHTS. DON'T LET "SMALL" FOOL YOU. THEY PUT OUT LOTS OF EXTRA LIGHT. ---LOWER COWL TURN LIGHTS WITH THE NICER "SE" CHROME MOUNT THAT LOOKS MUCH SHARPER THAN THE USUAL RUBBER SEAL. ---NEWER STYLE ('98) CHROME ROTOR COVER WITH KURYAKYN "RING OF FIRE" LIGHTS. ---FULL CHROME FAIRING GARNISH ---CHROME TRUNK LUGGAGE RACK ---CHROME SIDE PANEL AND SADDLEBAG SCUFF PLATES. ---CHROME FAIRING SIDE TRIM AND FAN EXIT GRILLS. (TRIM IS VERY NICE KURYAKYN TYPE) ---CUSHION GRIPS ---FAIRING SIDE REFLECTORS AND SADDLEBAG REFLECTORS HAVE BEEN CHANGED TO LIGHTS. RUNS AND SHIFTS PERFECTLY AS STATED EARLIER. REALLY ABOUT AS CLOSE TO NEW AS YOU CAN FIND WITH ONLY 26K MILES. ++++EVERYTHING WORKS (INCLUDING CASSETTE)++++++ TIRES ARE DUNLOPS. FRONT OVER HALF TREAD REMAINING, REAR ABOUT HALF REMAINING. MANY 1500'S ARE STILL GOING STRONG WITH 300K, 400K, OR MORE MILES WITHOUT OVERHAUL. HAVE ACTUALLY SEEN A COUPLE OVER HALF-A-MILLION MILES, STILL GOING GREAT, NO OVERHAUL SO THIS ONE JUST GETTING BROKEN IN. ALWAYS GARAGED WHEN NOT BEING RIDDEN AND SHOWS IT. AGAIN, LOOK AT PLASTIC, HANDLEBAR CONTROL LETTERING, EMBLEMS, SCRIPT, CLEAR COAT, ETC. LOTS OF NEWER ONES DON'T LOOK THIS GOOD. CAN SHIP ALMOST ANYWHERE (LOTS OF SOUTHWEST FOR $300 OR LESS) AND EXPERIENCED IN CANADIAN EXPORT PROCEDURES. (WILL DO THE U.S. CUSTOMS PAPERWORK FOR YOU) BUT -- STILL A GREAT TIME TO FLY IN TO SALT LAKE AIRPORT AND RIDE IT HOME THROUGH SOME BEAUTIFUL ROCKY MOUNTAIN SCENERY. COLORS ARE ++MAGNIFICENT++ !! YOU GET TO THE AIRPORT, I'LL GET YOU AND BIKE TOGETHER. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO GET ON THIS BIKE AND RIDE IT ANYWHERE. DON'T KNOW OF ANYTHING IT WILL NEED EXCEPT OIL CHANGES FOR QUITE A WHILE.
