This by far the most comfortable, enjoyable and reliable bike I’ve owned in the last 55 years. It has never been in any accidents, it was garage kept and babied. It was purchased after I turned 62 (new in Feb 2006) and never ridden hard or fast. It has a clear Arizona title. I am only selling it as I’m into my 70’s and health does not allow me to ride often. The bike has 73,378 miles all put on by me. All major service was completed by the dealer and I only did a few minor items myself. New front and rear tires plus front brakes were done by the Honda dealer at 73,084 miles (so almost new). New battery was installed in April 2013 and the front fork seals were replaced by the dealer. I have added many chrome pieces, the rear spoiler with brake light, ipod connection, tire sensors plus a few other small options. I am including the owner’s manuals, the service manual ($100), my low profile jack, 2 bottles of oil, rear brake pads, a helmet with the connection cord and plus all the misc. items that go with the bike.

Low, forward engine placement and solid engine-mounting produce excellent road handling characteristics and impressive low-speed maneuverability. High-pressure-formed, sintered iron Nickalloy™ 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 Silent-type camshaft chains with automatic adjusters provide reliable, maintenance-free operation. 6.9-liter airbox supplies a large volume of cool, clean air Two 40mm-diameter throttle bodies deliver air to six specially designed Keihin® 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. 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. Reverse Chassis/Suspension Inherently smooth flat-six-cylinder Gold Wing® 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 with air adjustments. 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 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. Adjustable and closeable windshield vent routes fresh air to the riders face or chest built in. The Gold Wing trunk provides 61 liters of storage capacity. 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. 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. 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™ 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. Options include a trunk-mounted six-disc CD changer, 15-watt-rated rear speakers and a 40-channel CB radio. 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, 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.
