GOLDWINGS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN KNOWN FOR RELIABILITY AND LONGEVITY. MANY GL1500'S ARE STILL GOING STRONG WITH 300K, 400K, OR MORE MILES, NO OVERHAUL (NO YOUR V-TWIN WON'T DO THAT) GOLDWING CHANGED THE "WHOLE BALLGAME" IN TOURING MOTORCYCLES WITH THE FIRST ONE IN 1975 AND THE GL1500 WAS A QUANTUM LEAP FROM THE PREVIOUS 3 MODELS. THE 1500 WAS THE FIRST WITH: +++++LEGENDARY GOLDWING REVERSE ++ ---6-CYLINDER "BOXER" STYLE ENGINE. REDLINES AT ONLY 5500 RPM, PART OF WHY THEY LAST SO LONG. (MANY STILL GOING STRONG WITH 300K, 400K, OR MORE MILES WITHOUT OVERHAUL ---FACTORY AM/FM/CASSETTE WITH INTEGRATED INTERCOM SYSTEM ---ELECTRONIC CRUISE CONTROL WITH ACCELL/DECEL/RESUME (WORKS JUST LIKE YOUR CAR'S CRUISE) ---ON-BOARD AIR COMPRESSOR FOR REAR SHOCK ADJUSTMENT AND EXTERNAL AIR SOURCE. (YES, CAN AIR UP YOUR OWN OR YOUR BUDDY'S TIRES) SOME EVEN PREFER THE GL1500 TO THE NEWER GL1800. (I'M ONE OF THOSE) THE 1500 HAS MORE STORAGE CAPACITY, A HIGHER RATED LOAD CAPACITY, AND HAS A SLIGHTLY MORE "CUSH" RIDE THAN THE 1800. (NOT TO MENTION LOTS LESS COST) THE '98 MODEL WAS THE FIRST OF THE "LAST 3" (YEARS OF THE GL1500) AND INCLUDED LOTS OF CHANGES FROM THE EARLIER MODELS: ---UPGRADED TRANSMISSION (SAME AS VALKYRIE XMSN) ---TWO-TONE (GRAY AND BLACK) SEAT AND PASSENGER BACKREST ---WHITE INSTRUMENTS WITH RECESSED REFLECTOR PLATE (INSTRUMENT BEZEL) ---MORE MODERN STREAMLINED "GOLDWING" SCRIPT AND BADGES ---IMPROVED SUSPENSION AND SOME CHANGES IN ENGINE BEARINGS FOR EVEN MORE LONGEVITY. ---NEW STYLE VALVE COVERS, ENGINE GUARDS, AND COOLING FAN EXIT GRILLS.

(GOOD SAFETY FEATURE) ---CHROME LUGGAGE RACK AND FAIRING SIDE STRIPS ---CHROME SIDE PANELS (BRAND NEW) ---GEL BATTERY (EXTRA POWER AND LONGER LIFE) COLOR IS OFFICIALLY CALLED "PEARL CHAPARREL BEIGE" (HONDA PAINT CODE X191P). PHOTOS DON'T REALLY SHOW COLOR WELL AT ALL. LOOKS MORE LIKE A LIGHT GREEN IN THE PICS BUT IS A REALLY PRETTY METALLIC BEIGE. UNFORTUNATELY, HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO GET PICS THAT SHOW THE COLOR WELL. PROBABLY HELPS IF YOU'VE SEEN ONE. REALLY A GOOD LOOKING COLOR COMBINATION WITH THE PANELS. FRONT TIRE HAS ABOUT 75% TREAD REMAINING. REAR TIRE IS BRAND NEW.
