1975 Honda Gold Wing

GL10001011849

Clear

A beautiful original first year Gold Wing, bodywork, seat, and exhaust are in outstanding condition, no rips or tears in the seat and the bodywork and chrome is absolutely pristine. The tires were replaced in 2015 with new Shinko Tour Master tires and have just a few hundred miles on them. This bike is ridden rarely and is stored inside a heated shop during the winter months. The engine is the only weak spot on this bike as it burns some oil when started for the first time after it has been sitting but disappears once it has had a chance to warm up. Checked the compression and it is good, 170, 172, 160, 165 so hopefully it just needs new valve stem seals. Starts fine, even after sitting, but occasionally the starter clutch slips. I have done all the regular maintenance service but I am not a mechanic so I have shied away from attempting this work.

No problem helping load the bike if it is transported but shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. Please contact the seller with any questions or if you need more information.
