This is not your fathers Goldwing,.. I do one bike build a year, and this year I chose a 1986 Goldwing aspencade. In my opinion, one of the ugliest bikes ever made, so I wanted the challenge of making it cool looking. Here are the details First, the (not very) badThe bike sat for a year or two prior to me purchasing it. I have ran a little sea foam through it, and continuing to do so to clean it all out inside. The bike runs great, but is still a little sluggish at top speed but it will clear out with continued use of seafoam or a good carb cleaning. I am not very mechanical, and 1 carb scares me,.. much less 4. The bike is cold blooded, but if you start it with the choke and let it get to temperature it runs great. The tires have around 30-40 tread life left. This bike has no turn signals installed, but the wiring is still intact if you wish to add some yourself. There are no mirrors on the bike, I felt it took away from the looks of the bike and left them off for the buyer to choose what style they would like to add. Also, one time I tried to start the bike and the starter did not catch. This only happened once, so I don't believe its an issue but wanted to mention it.Now for the good!!!This bike is a tire burning bandit! If you want to do burn outs, this is your bike. It will smoke the tire in every gear. Remember, this bike was built to carry around an extra 300 pounds before I put her on a diet! It has new timing belts installed, new plugs, fresh oil change, new fork seals and wipers, and new pulse generators. The headlights are new and very bright. The tail lights are custom dynamics knight riders,.. they flash 3 times when you hit the brake then hold steady. The airbox/fuel tank cover has been modified and the speedometer/tachometer has been moved inside it. I built side covers to make it complete, and added screens on the front to allow more air to the airbox. The seat is hard mounted to a hand pounded and metal finished seat pan. The rear fender is a spare tire cover off a 32' Ford. This bike is a hard tail in the rear. The front forks were just redone and work great. When I hard tailed it, it dropped the bike overall about 4" to give it that sleek low slung look. Paint is Custom Shop Chop Top Silver Metallic, with a flat black accent down the tank. This bike has a clear texas title, I never registered or titled it in my name since I only bought it, to build it and sell. Bike is available for pickup here in SW Kansas. Shipping is your responsibility but I will assist in any way I can.Below is a walkaround video I did of the highlights.http://youtu.be/-sM3WXrRiGY If you have any questions please ask before hitting the buy it now button. **Added 4-18-14**I forgot to explain the mileage. The original odometer read 77,000 miles, however the title states exceeds mechanical limits. The bike was serviced regularly by its previous owner and comes with some extra seals, the old belts and a few misc. parts the owner gave to me when I purchased the bike. The odometer is no longer on the bike, so from here on out there is no way to track the mileage. In the video I said that the headlights stopped working,.. that was incorrect. I forgot that I wired them to work on the low beam only, and on high beam it turns them off (for stealth mode running from the cops.. lol) Brainfart on my part, and the switch was just flipped to high beam so everything is/was working correctly. The last thing I failed to mention was that the speedometer isn't working, it stays at 0. The fuel, temp gauge, gear selector and tachometer all work, but I never dug into why the speedo isn't registering as Im not the most mechanical person and I watch my tach more then a speedo anyhow. Besides,.. with a bike that runs like this,.. who is looking at the speed? :)
