1976 Goldwing Cold Start

Cold Start of a recent purchase, a 1976 Goldwing GL1000 Limited Edition Bicentennial. Only 2000 made for the 200th Anniversary of the United States. It's been said that Honda make these in honoring of the U.S.A. turning 200 and gave one to every main Honda Dealer.

40 years. 57k miles and no leaks I remember when Harleys had a cardboard under them when brand new in the showroom so they to protect the floor from oil stains

[@mcfuller5020]

By the way I graduated in 76 and have ridden nothing but Honda's, including a 1978 Goldwing I rode for sixteen years. I am now 62 riding a 2000 Honda Valkyrie Interstate with 70,000 miles on it.

[@zhack3d]

MC Fuller Wow Amazing

[@0xsergy]

@Malik Sturm ok original commenter

[@chiraggurjar0047]

You are genuine

[@octaviobustillos6968]

What a bad ass

[@bobbyfranklin3734]

I graduated 1978. I have owned a 1976 gl1000. I have owned a 1982 GL 1100. I've owned a 1997 GL 1500. I currently write a 2000 Honda Valkyrie with 40,000 miles on it. I'm 60 years old. So I guess we have something in common

[@BillyWalkAway]

how could its look like brand new after many years ?

[@kino266]

it must have been cleaned and/or restored

[@daangamer8527]

No brain boy low Miles and good care

[@09hahug]

4:15 when you finally get to take a piss

[@aruntm2496]

Looking very nice

[@travelinben1966]

Really nice bike.Looks great with the fairing off👍

[@jonesjonz1]

Like that gold treatment they put on the wheels.

[@Cupat1]

Lovely old bike but take the spare key off or you'll have plenty of scratches on that nice tank.

[@motocyklowywagabunda7038]

Those are not aftermarket pipes it is from goldwing 1000 K3 version and I need those badly to my goldwing from 1978, beautiful bike. LTD is really rare and very expensive in pristine condition.

[@TrippyMooner]

Nice bike! I have 2 naked old wings. A 1976 I purchased new and a 1981. Not to be picky but I noticed a few things. You are missing (1) the reflectors on each side of the headlight bucket (2) The four black caps that cover the handle riser screws (3) the rubber cover on the right side of the swingarm (4) you have only part of the aftermarket cruise control on the throttle grip (5) You need to replace the neutral safety switch to eliminate the neutral warning light, Otherwise you have a stunning example of a very rare and desirable Goldwing.

Cool bike......bloody coooool

[@7erFamily]

All of you that are looking at this from EBAY, let me know what you think, good and bad... TY!

[@Buddycoop1]

He never replies to anybody so he must have sold it.

[@ifrit35]

It's a really good looking bike. It's funny how modern goldwings look like space jetskis and it used to look like a normal motorcycle.

[@Mike_S_Swift]

I had a 76’ in 77’. Excellent bike had a similar fairing backrack and removable suitcase bags. I installed electronic ignition and got away from the dual points. The early bikes were mom & pop bikes

[@jimmywalker6820]

I own a 1976 winger, needed timing belt when I bought it. I changed both timing belts and discovered that the starter needed to be taken care of, you know, taken off, apart, cleaned out. I pull started it with a vehicle and it fired right up. I kill the motor cause I'm getting oil all over my boots, haven't put the belt covers back on, and I put it back together and it just won't start. I will keep trying to get it figured out because I really do like the style of this bike. It's has lots of potential and "grrr" written all over it. A BEAST!!!

[@derrickwoods2803]

What? The first ones 75 and 76 had hot cams and were meant to compete with the kz of that era they grandpawed them in 79

[@Mike_S_Swift]

@@derrickwoods2803 under 5k were normal(mom & pop cruising) . Above 5K to redline better be hanging on.

[@TMKNWA]

Clean old bike

[@asproman66]

Old is gold

Fine condition！ Very pleased to feel that you love Japanese product as a Japanese！

[@upcyclegarage7685]

IF you want to sell it .. ? I have shipped two LTD GL 1000 back to Japan ... FYI . i have see two others in museums the build quality of the foundry second to none.

[@tysonkonken6184]

The Holy Grail of GL's. Yours is really nice bud.

[@BeingDengineer]

What's the price?

[@slingshot360diecastracing6]

Never gets old! Love that low grumble.

[@jymebale5545]

I had a 76 back in 84 but it had a faring and windshield, it ran great, start every time the first time after I adjusted the points and plugs, it was fantastic.

[@iDONTdoFacebook]

@Jyme Bale This guy’s ‘76 Centennial LTD has fairing and bags. He showed them late in the video. They’d been removed from the bike as he wanted it back to stock condition/appearance. With the exception of the ‘79 GL1100, all 70’s GoldWings came undressed/naked from Honda. No fairings or bags. In ‘79 Honda produced SOME GL1100’s with saddlebags and trunks but no fairings yet. Dealers or purchasers could add aftermarket fairing and/or bags if they wanted to spend the extra bucks to dress ‘em up. So your ‘76 GL1000 GoldWing’s dress parts weren’t Honda but were added later as aftermarket parts.

[@JohnSmith-uy7sv]

Do you still have this bike? The fairing mounts are missing.

[@davidevelyn530]

The pipes are OEM but for the 78/9 Gl 1000 Gold Wing.

[@angelomedi]

cool video love the bike i would like to ride a goldwing one day with my lovely wife and cat

[@MrSudanPresident]

You do know that 9 lives crap is a Myth right...

[@keemez]

that baby did in fact start dang well and idles smooth as can be for not being up to operating temp. Honda knows motors- ain't no mistaking that

[@brydonott9019]

Brown Sharpie = no scratch

[@Brunoxtr]

What a gem

[@emptywindexbottle97]

I would like to see it with the acessories because i feel like the goldwing is supposed to be big and comfortable now it just looks like a moped not gonna lie

[@relate97]

I just rode a Honda dirt bike from the 50’s was nuts first gear was up and you shift 2nd and third down

[@samucerezo9388]

i lot of love in the machine!! great bike conditions, the motor sounds really amazing, love it, thakns for sharing

[@flibbertigibbet6200]

Take that other key off or you're going to scratch your tank etc, and not advisable to put fairing and chrome on concrete. Just makes me cringe as like to keep things like new especially on a lovely old bike like that.

[@davidevelyn530]

There is also a knob around the choke and if you tighten it clockwise a bit it will stay in place wherever you like.

[@fztedemir]

very good condition after many years.

That’s cool They put where it was bought on the keys when I rode a 50’s Honda they had a little plaque welded on the frame on which dealership assembled and sold it was neat

Nice bike.Hope you fixed the neutral light then back in 2014.Easier to leave the bike with the engine om if you know it aint in some gear.😀

The valves need doing and it has a consistent misfire

[@erikpaaske1069]

Not after market pipes, exhaust from 78 or 79 gold wing. Sweet limited, love brown, cant believe you where right in town here. Long live the "Shaw"

Beautiful, much much nicer than the modern ones.

[@John_Ridley]

Haha if I had to ride cross country on a bike, I think I'd pick a modern one. Though maybe a 2016ish one; the latest ones have worse seats than a year or three back.

[@lolly166541]

@@John_Ridley I prefer the 1987 style or the early 1990s ones. I'm actually thinking of buying but but I don't have the space for one. My garage is full of restoration projects of post-/war racing bikes :C

I love metric bikes and I love the fact that they made HD a better bike by virtue of competition. But, I don't understand why a Japanese bike company would produce a bike for the American bicentennial....
