1998 HONDA GOLDWING GL1500 ASPENCADE, BEAUTIFUL CANDY SPECTRA RED, ONLY 34K MILES, LOADED WITH USUAL GOLDWING AMENITIES, ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT CONDITION BOTH APPEARANCE AND MECHANICAL. BIKE LOOKS AS GOOD AS THE PHOTOS. PAINT HAS NO FADING WHATSOEVER. RUNS AND SHIFTS PERFECTLY AND IS GOOD TO GO ANYWHERE YOU WANT TO TAKE IT. MOST GOLDWINGS ARE SHARP BUT SOME ARE SHARPER AND THIS IS ONE OF THOSE! ---AND --- EVERYTHING WORKS! ---- HONDA STARTED A "WHOLE NEW BALLGAME" IN TOURING QUIET AND SMOOTH WITH THE FIRST GOLDWING IN 1975 AND THE GL1500 WAS A QUANTUM LEAP FROM EARLIER MODELS. ---6-CYLINDER "BOXER" ENGINE THAT REDLINES AT ONLY 5500 RPM ---FACTORY AM/FM/CASSETTE RADIO WITH INTEGRATED INTERCOM SYSTEM ---ELECTRONIC CRUISE CONTROL WITH ACCEL/DECEL/RESUME JUST LIKE YOUR CAR'S ---ON-BOARD AIR COMPRESSOR FOR REAR SHOCK ADJUSTMENT AND EXTERNAL AIR SOURCE.

I DETEST RESERVE AUCTIONS BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO GUESS THE PRICE AT WHICH THE THING IS REALLY FOR SALE. THIS WILL SELL TO THE HIGH BIDDER WHETHER THERE BE ONE BID OR MANY.
