Hello everyone and thanks for watching!! So I’ve got a lot of comments saying this engine isn’t a v6 and it’s a flat 6 or boxer style, which I KNOW!!!!! When your on camera it’s kinda hard to think sometimes so it slipped.. forgive me.. I’m also trying to get part 2 out asap but I’ve been suffering from having the flu 😖 so bear w me, thanks guys for the love and support!!❤😊

These older barn/yard finds are a lot of fun to get going again. I've done up three early 80's Goldwing's. I did an 84 that had been literally driven into a farm machine shed, parked on a sheet of plywood and left for 19 years. Hooked up a battery and it turned over like it had been shut off an hour previous!! A bath and about 80 hours to clean, adjust, replace, blah blah blah, and it was ready for the road. Unfortunately it was too heavy and too high for my short 70+ old legs. I sold it for a reasonable profit and the new owner is on the road ever chance he gets.

I bought a 1982 Goldwing Interstate from a wrecking yard for $175.00 last year. After a bath, a couple of tires and a battery. It looks beautiful, runs great and rides fine with the rear air shocks set to my short legs. My third Goldwing. Started with a 1984 1200, then a 2000 1500. Toured for about 15 years on them. Had a great time. Knew it would run because it's a Honda. Good luck with your project.

Neat trousers, LoL. I'm 82yo and ridden British and Japanese bikes all my life since the mid 1950s including a time when i was a motorcycle Highway Cop here in New Zealand. The GoldWing was my dream bike, sadly i could never afford one. The closest i got was, i have owned at different times two 1986 Honda CB 750 F2 models complete with full fairing. I just loved those bikes, much more superior to any other bikes i had owned including British Patrol bikes i was privileged to ride during my Enforcement service.

He seems to instinctively understand what he is dealing with. Don’t forget that around this time Honda were probably the best, most innovative motive engineers in the world. Apart from the main omission of fuel injection, the Gold Wing was probably one of the most amazing machines available at the time and still stands out today.

Wow! I mean wow! At first I was very skeptical on anyone actually fixing that. You started tearing it down and I thought forsure that's how the bike will remain. Then you tore out the carbs and rebuilt them. I was apologetic in my assessment in your skills. At this point I wouldn't have been able to remember where every hose and accessory goes. Yet you keep tearing it down further. How your able to reassemble 500 parts/bolts/ and everything else is incredibly skilled. Hats off to you. I subscribed. It is crazy how much they cram behind those fairings yikes! Rats nest literally.

What a masterpiece of engineering in 1988. Woah! The Japanese were and are way way ahead of their time. They were never given credit earlier...branding them as cheap and plastic in the earlier years. My grand dad used to say. It's only now people are appreciating them. My dad and grand dad tell me Ferrari copied a lot of engineering of the Honda NSX on to their ferraris and never gave Honda the credit. Same thing with bikes too. The Italians and Germans copied a lot of the engineering and technology from bands like Honda, Maha, Zuki and Kawa.

[@TheHomePros6221]

it’s crazy!! I love these old motorcycles, atvs..ect

[@DenisKz]

Well my Dad and Grand Dad told me they didn't. You need to start researching things for yourself instead of believing everything you parents told you. I bet you still believe in Santa and the Easter Bunny.

Your subscriptions are going to skyrocket. Keep it up. You remind me of Mustie1. Maybe show a little more of the details. Keep the projects to 2 or 3 parts. Cant wait to see this bike come to life. It's gonna pull like a tractor.

Incredible transformation Darrell , many congratulations on an impressive video from the UK !.Remember riding a new GL1200 Aspencade and that was pretty awsome but then one of these in the same color appeared in the local Honda showroom for £7,750 which was a fortune back then !.The first episode made it appear a lost cause but you have worked wonders and proved the advantage of reviving ' Honda quality ' !.Enjoy the fruits of your hard graft and hope you and your wife enjoy many happy rides together - good luck mate !.

How much did you spend to fix it up? I bought a 2008 Goldwing a couple years ago and spent around $500 in parts. It was pretty neglected and hadn’t run in two years. I probably saved $3000 in labor! Now I have to figure out the problem with the reverse light blinking and the cruise control stopped working

[@TheHomePros6221]

the reverse light blinking is just the switch that is by the reverse lever you should be able to bend the tab on the lever thing so it contacts the switch fully and so it presses the switch all the way in so it doesn’t blink

[@TheHomePros6221]

cruise control is prob the switch bad on the handle bar or the vacuum solenoid or the diaphragm is bad we’re it hooks into the throttle cable
