1977 Honda Goldwing

Offering on behalf of a friend who's moving to Tahiti soon.

A machine of this caliber would clearly be wasted in French Polynesia so he's selling his pride and joy.

Obviously it's in fantastic condition for a thirty two year old classic and would suit anyone wanting to rack some huge milages in comfort.

Recently fitted with a new rear tyre and head gaskets.

Pretty sure he open to realistic offers so let me know if you're keen and I can put you in touch.

Cheers

Omigod! It's an original. Those things are classics.

'77 Wing was a GL1000, not 1200.
(Unless it's got the later (1984 onwards) engine fitted?)

I used to have a poster of one of those on my wall when I was a teenager. It may look funny now, but it was a BIG deal at the time: it was watercooled, it was shaft driven, it had triple disk brakes, it was 1000cc, it was a flat four, it was water-cooled, and the 'fuel tank' was a dummy one (real one was under the seat).

Perfect bike for the Trashman, he's gay, it's a Honda, a match made in heaven

I don't know why but that bike looks fucking awesome, I'm fairly ignorant, I had no idea they used to look like that.

Good luck to your friend for the sale, I wish I had the money!

Thanks for the clarification Viffer. Pretty sure it wont have been re powered so yeah, 1000cc is more likely.
