This bike comes with Fog Lights, CD Changer, Riders Backrest, and all it needs is someone to twist the throttle and point it towards the horizon. Check out my Feedback rating and comments, you will not be disappointed. The Honda Goldwing motorcycle first saw the light of day at the Cologne Motorcycle Show in October 1974, as the flat-four cylinder, 999cc GL1000 Gold Wing and was released to the world for the 1975 model year. While this first production version of the now famous Goldwing was ultimately deemed to be a success (it was after all the birth of a legend), it's place in the world of motorcycling was not entirely cast in stone at the beginning. Part of the reason for this was the fact that the GL1000 didn't really fit properly into any particular motorcycle class, even though it was officially tagged as a tourer. Weighing in at 584lbs dry, it was far too heavy to be called a sports bike and the upright sitting position also helped to kill of any such sporting pretensions. The rear coil spring suspension wasn't up to the job of handling all the weight when the rider was pushing it through heavy going, such as the winding country roads that all bikers love (at least occasionally) to tackle. The total absence of touring kit fitted as standard didn't help the official touring image either, Honda didn't make their own saddlebags and trunk available for the GL1000 until it's last year of production in 1979, in spite of promising to do so in 1975. A Honda fairing was not even an option until the GL1100 Interstate was released in 1980! Honda's claim that the GL1000 was a tourer must have rang hollow in the ears of many owners keen to have their machines fitted out for the job. It's almost like the design team had a picture of what they wanted to make, but no clear idea of where to fit it once it went into production. More than one GL1000 owner has told me that their early impressions from the press reports was that Honda seemed to be more concerned with emphasising the outright straight-line performance of the beast, and cementing it's role as a proper touring motorcycle seemed to be of secondary importance at the time. One has to bear in mind that Honda (and all the other major motorcycle manufacturers) were trying to develop many models in the 1970's, this being the biggest boom time for motorcycles ever, period. This was a time when everyone and his sons bought motorcycles and paying attention to the needs of different types of riders (cruiser types, racers, commuters, tourers etc.) must have been very difficult during those hectic days. Nevertheless and in spite of all the confusion about the Goldwings role in life, the GL1000 proved to be a very reliable motorcycle, quite capable of going very long distances without missing a beat and almost immediately the aftermarket fairing & pannier suppliers started to cater for the requests of those who wanted to use the GL1000 for more than just popping down to the shops or Sunday morning posing at the local meet. This is what finally gave the Goldwing it's place in the motorcycling world, it really became a touring motorcycle because it's owners shaped it into one and Honda, always keen to keep an ear to the ground, listened to what the customers wanted (just as well too or they might have killed the Goldwing off before long, not least because expected sales of the Goldwing in the first year of production were less than 10% of what Honda had predicted) and started planning the next incarnation of what has turned into a legend in the world of touring motorcycles. So 30 years later, here you are, the 2005 30th Anniversary Wing. We know what else is out there and so do you, there is not a better value anywhere for sale. Call me, Brian @ 888-330-5536 and let the journey begin. VEHICLE OPTIONS Options Touring Option Notes 6 DISC CHANGER FOG LIGHTS RIDERS BACKREST IPOD AUX PLUG HIGHWAY PEGS Engine/Drivetrain - The exhaustively tested 1832cc liquid-cooled horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine provides effortless power. - Low, forward engine placement and solid engine-mounting produce excellent road handling characteristics and impressive low-speed maneuverability. - High-pressure-formed, sintered iron Nickalloy(tm) crankshaft bearing caps provide quiet operation throughout the engine's operating temperature range. - Parallel two-valve cylinder head design utilizes direct shim-under-bucket valve actuation and requires no 600-mile service; the first valve clearance inspection is at 32,000 miles. - Silent-type camshaft chains with automatic adjusters provide reliable, maintenance-free operation. - 6.9-liter airbox supplies a large volume of cool, clean air to the engine. - Two 40mm-diameter throttle bodies deliver air to six specially designed Keihin(r) 50-psi high-pressure programmed fuel injectors (PGM-FI). Fuel is delivered through four nozzle tips in each injector, producing an atomized fuel mixture that is highly combustible for optimum efficiency and power. - Electronic control unit (ECU) provides two digital 3-D fuel injection maps for each cylinder and one digital 3-D ignition map for each cylinder, creating ideal fuel mixture and spark advance settings for superb rideability. Unique knock-control sensors monitor ignition advance to improve performance throughout the entire rpm range. - ECU-controlled closed-loop emission control system utilizes two oxygen sensors to constantly deliver a precise air/fuel mixture, while two exhaust catalyzers further reduce emissions of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides. - Rotary Air Control Valve (RACV) provides auto-choke function and maintains precise idle control under widely varying engine loads and operating temperatures. - Compact water pump is mounted behind the engine and is driven directly by the crankshaft, contributing to quicker engine warm-up. - Engine cooling system features a series-flow coolant flow pattern that offers cold-start rideability and provides rapid engine warm-up. - Two side-mounted radiators enhance cooling efficiency and use low-air-pressure areas created by side cowls to draw cooling air through the radiators and around the rider at highway speeds. Below 15 mph, thermostat-controlled fans pull cooling air across the radiators into the fairing, keeping hot air away from the rider. - Sturdy eight-plate clutch with maintenance-free hydraulic-assist. - Efficient stainless steel six-into-two exhaust system produces a pleasing, powerful sound. - Powerful, 1100-watt alternator uses a dual-damper system to minimize alternator noise. - Precise-shifting five-speed transmission includes overdrive fifth. Chassis/Suspension - The innovative aluminum frame is specifically engineered for optimum rigidity with tuned flex. This combination of rigidity and flexibility produces excellent handling, superb riding comfort and wonderful road feel. - Inherently smooth flat-six-cylinder Gold Wing(r) engine also serves as a tuned stressed frame member. The solid engine-mounting system utilizes specially designed hangers and carefully matched mounting bolts to provide both excellent road feel and minimal engine vibration. - The Gold Wing's rigid Pro Arm single-side cast aluminum swingarm provides simplified servicing of the rear wheel and tire, while assuring optimum handling. - Dual full-floating 296mm front discs with Linked Braking System (LBS) three-piston calipers and a single ventilated 316mm rear disc with one LBS three-piston caliper provide excellent braking power. - Honda's LBS features a second master cylinder and a three-stage proportional control valve (PCV) to couple the three-piston calipers of the dual-front and single-rear brake discs. Using the front brake lever activates the outer two pistons of the front right-side caliper and the center piston of the front left-side caliper and, acting through the secondary master cylinder and an inline proportioning valve, the outer two pistons of the rear caliper. The rear brake pedal operates the center piston of the rear brake caliper, the center piston of the front right-side brake caliper and the outer two pistons of the front left-side caliper. A delay valve sensitive to the rider's pedal pressure smooths front brake engagement. - Massive, 45mm front fork houses a cartridge damper in the right leg with 5.5 inches of travel for a smooth yet superb ride in all road conditions. - Anti-dive system minimizes front fork dive when braking. The system utilizes brake fluid pressure generated in the secondary LBS master cylinder mounted on the left fork leg and is activated by input from either the front brake lever or the rear brake pedal. This application of anti-dive and LBS produces enhanced stability when maneuvering at both low speeds and highway speeds. - Pro-Link-mounted rear shock provides 4.1 inches of plush travel for relaxed touring or sport riding. - Computer-controlled adjustable hydraulic rear suspension preload is easily set by the rider with push-button controls and features a two-position memory. - Unique driveshaft-damping system utilizes a double-pipe structure, with a rubber-bonded coating applied to the inner pipe to absorb road shock and engine torque. The long-life design simplifies rear wheel maintenance. - Final gearcase assembly design in the Pro Arm eliminates wheel alignment splines and assures accurate alignment of the rear wheel after servicing. - Cast aluminum 18 x 3.5-inch front wheel and 16 x 5.0-inch rear wheel are lightweight and strong. Radial touring tires are specifically engineered for the Gold Wing, providing a combination of excellent traction, cornering grip and long tire life. Touring Features - The parallel two-valve cylinder head design, together with side-mounted radiators, allows optimum ergonomics, with excellent rider foot room and a large passenger cockpit. - Slow-speed electric reverse system is engaged with the simple push of the thumb controls on the right handlebar. - Lightweight electronic cruise control system utilizes a 16-bit ECU-controlled, motor-actuated throttle mechanism. - The Gold Wing's aerodynamic bodywork is functional as well as beautiful, providing excellent rider wind protection while reducing the aerodynamic drag coefficient. - A simple yet ingenious ratcheting windshield-adjustment system provides six settings over nearly 4 inches of travel. Operated manually, the mechanism eliminates the weight and complexity of electric motors. - Adjustable and closeable windshield vent routes fresh air to the riders face or chest. - The Gold Wing trunk provides 61 liters of storage capacity with an additional 5 liters of storage available. Two full-face helmets fit easily in the trunk. The saddlebags provide 40-plus liters of storage each, resulting in a total of 147 liters of storage space. - The saddlebag lids feature hydraulic dampers for smooth operation. - Specially designed luggage features a remote-control key-lock, permitting pop-open rear trunk operation; a remote lock/unlock feature for the trunk and the saddlebags; and a horn-actuated bike locator. If remote locking is attempted while a lid is open, the emergency lights flash to alert the rider. - Storage pockets located in the fairing and rear trunk feature oil-damped doors for smooth operation. - Soft-touch plastic elastomer provides a luxurious feel to the front console, front- and rear-pocket covers and the passenger armrests. - Wind-tunnel-tested flow-through fairing ventilation system. - Ergonomically designed saddle with a low, 29.1-inch seat height has a plush passenger seat with integral backrest and side support for all-day riding comfort. - Panasonic(tm) state-of-the-art audio system features two enclosed 24-watt-rated stereo speakers for full-spectrum music reproduction with superb bass. Features include 12 FM and six AM preset stations, weather band radio, station auto-select, headset-ready intercom, auxiliary adapter, ambient audio enhancement, auto volume control and audio mute. Intuitively designed console-mounted controls provide all setup functions while ergonomically designed controls mounted on the left handlebar make rider-activated audio selection a simple process. A hooded, high-resolution LCD display is easy to read in all riding conditions. - Instrument cluster includes white-on-black analog displays for speedometer, tachometer, coolant temperature and fuel level, and features adjustable backlighting and high-luminescence red pointers. An LCD clock is located in the speedometer face. A high-resolution 110 x 254 dpi LCD, housed in a separate module, is legible in all lighting conditions and displays the odometer, A/B tripmeter, ambient temperature, audio modes, CB, rear suspension setting and trunk- and saddlebag-open indicators. Indicator/warning lights are provided for reverse, neutral, overdrive, oil pressure, fuel injection, high beam, sidestand, cruise on, cruise set and low fuel. - Motorized headlight aiming system is operated by a dial switch located on the left fairing panel and provides 2.5 degrees of adjustment from level. - Large, 6.6-gallon fuel tank houses the PGM-FI fuel pump and provides excellent long-distance cruising range. Additional Features - Headlight system features two 55W H7 low-beam and two 55W H7 high-beam bulbs with computer-designed multi-reflectors. In high-beam operation, all four bulbs produce a distinctive front lighting signature. - Engine and saddlebag guards help protect the Gold Wing's bodywork in case of a tipover. - Silver powder-coated finish helps ensure the Gold Wing's aluminum frame will remain beautiful for years to come. - Maintenance-free features include: automatic choke, RACV automatic idle, programmed fuel injection, automatic cam-chain adjusters, sealed battery, electronic cruise control and computer-controlled hydraulic rear spring preload adjustment. - Handsome two-piece aluminum handlebars are lightweight and strong. - Adjustable brake and clutch levers. - Self-canceling turn signals. - Fully illuminated handlebar and radio switches. - Handlebar switches and controls use internationally approved graphic symbols. - Dual electric spiral horns trumpet a distinctive note. - 20-amp YTX maintenance-free battery. - Fold-down antenna for easy storage. - Padded passenger handrails. - Easy-to-use centerstand. - Convenient ignition switch/fork lock for added security. - Assembled in Marysville, Ohio.
