I had the 1976. It died with 400,000 kilometres on it. Owned it for 14 years and rode it most days. Awesome bike

[@umarff9153]

400,000 kms 💀

[@Driponsauce0]

Like damn we’re u Iive I wish I can ride that much

[@Shubham69590]

When did that die

[@davidmcfaull3162]

@@Shubham69590 at least 15 years ago

[@kennethsouthard6042]

Whoever put this video together obviously didn't know much about Goldwings.

[@defco9]

How do you mean?

[@suchet25]

​@@defco9 because it has nothing to do with performance...it's a simple cafe/scrambler build... Just look at suspension,,,its a restored junk brought back to life by some kid.cool bike

[@defco9]

@@suchet25 Ok? I didn't say any of that...

[@stevejones1318]

Its not stripped down, it's a Gen 1 model with paint and fancy inlets.

That 77 gold wing looks amazing stripped down and Lightened

[@johnhughes3796]

That's like saying you can lighten an Abrams.

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

​@@johnhughes3796 yeah okay

[@davidleonard8369]

Actually that’s pretty much how the early ones came. Well, maybe not the Webber idf carbs. Back then if you wanted a fairing the Vetter Wind Jammer was the ticket.

[@djustinvanweerde1129]

Do you know what kind of weber carbs and intake manifolds? And air intake pipes/mesh?

[@Giitzerland]

My father used to buy and sell Goldwings, he had pretty much every year, but his favorites were the stripped down early one's like this. He even had one named "Goldie"(not this one), it had gold accents, with burgundy paint, tons of head work, and internals, with a custom exhaust, it sounded mean af. 24k gold pin striping btw, it was a beauty, I'll never forget it.

[@SuccessShared]

Would like to have seen the whole bike!

[@sana-cm7oc]

Love these GW conversions. Flat 4 us so well balanced and sounds wicked with straight pipes.

[@enochpowel3030]

I had a 1977 goldwing about 10 years ago I had it for a couple of years. I love the old bikes.

[@jakevipond3938]

I’d be interested in this sort of carb setup for my 83

[@fadingbeleifs]

I've heard of people installing them, but I've had it on good authority from numerous sources that it's generally not a good idea on the GL1100 or the GL 1200...

[@Johnclark300]

I just bought a 1986 Honda gold wing interstate, fully loaded, it needs a complete carburator rebuild, it's running on two cylinders, it has 28,040 original miles, it's been sitting in a garage most of its life, I will fix it up and keep it forever, Honda is the best motorcycle manufacturer in the world.

[@bennyboogenheimer4553]

My Honda dealer Chuck, in Ephrata, Pa. in 1984 ran a 1,000 cc Gold Wing in the 1ST Iron Butt Races around America. 15,000 miles in 10 days. His only costs, gas/oil/3 sets of Dunlap tires. NO breakdowns! Dirt bike strait bars, and duct tape for a throttle lock. lol!

[@19boris57]

Goldwing with a Weber carb conversion. Weber carbs are a big improvement.

[@sekoivu]

Cool Goldie in golden color. Nice!

[@vicO1323]

I bought a new 1978 Wing with a color matched Windjammer. Cruise all day at 80.

[@JoseGutierrez-ms9jc]

What Is the name of those carburetors?

[@nbowling10trio]

I like this one too. I had a cb900 custom years ago looked real similar to this except inline4 and it was blue. Wasn't fast but loved to ride it

[@richardstump4582]

Fantastic!!

[@spectre776]

Also known as a lead wing, put a 4 into1 straight-out on one and they sound amazing

[@app1mxh]

Looks brand new

[@demented_cycles]

GL1000. that’s how most Goldwings looked in the first generation. It wasn’t till the end of the first generation, that they started putting fairings on them.

[@gaspuppygarage3782]

Original goldwings were street bruisers. Then vetter made a fairing for them then all of a sudden they turnedcinto tourers

[@toddclark332]

I like it too ❤

[@matalacras23]

Tengo una 97 Me las tomo la rodilla, y valió la pena 😊 hermosa moto

Man that radiator needs a guard

[@phoenixarizona8441]

Gotta love a naked gold wing I miss my 83 GL1100 cafe racer she was a beast she would walk off on dad's 83 gs750

[@frankfurther3828]

"Who knows what this is", anybody but the producer.

[@powamoto]

It’s a Honda bro😮

[@hondaryder3779]

I want to ride it 😮

[@fadingbeleifs]

That's not a stripped down Goldwing... That is a GL1000 (with Weber carburetors installed)... They came from the factory that way. These bikes weigh something like 600 lb, maybe... I think the curb weight was like 585 lb... A fully dressed 1980 to 1983 GL 1100 weighs 685 lbs.

[@daletucker453]

Nice

[@ricksmith4742]

The naked GL 1000 Honda goldwing . They first came out in 1975 and they ran like a striped ass ape. I'm in the process of rebuilding one for a friend and it's a wiring nightmare.

[@ablesandoval4904]

The moter gives it away That never changed

[@suchet25]

Its not easy to remove all that trash from that rear end....nice work done on wiring.

[@frankenstein9325]

I fucking love it 😳

[@samborambobo]

Never been a goldwing fan. . . . For real?

[@christophermikrowelle7093]

I hadn''t a 77 Goldwing and didn't drive it.

[@GPgundude]

I Love It!!!

Synchronising the 2 Webers might be a tad difficult..

[@aggravatedprogressive7443]

Wings are strippable in one motion of the three fingers

[@crf250lguy]

Looks like VW bug Weber carbs 48idf

[@juniorcopeland9082]

Weakest thing on goldwings were the cam belts !!

[@vicO1323]

the drive shaft, the radiator, and suspension was soft.

[@pipes9878]

That's as bad as when I watched a vid where a moto journalist talked about "Hondas version of the monkey bike" 😂😂😂 dude had no idea blabbering about Chinese manidacturing inspired honda to take them on 😂😂😂😂😂

[@user-fp9yi4dn1m]

Gl1000

[@bennyboogenheimer4553]

They were literally a copy of a R75 BMW from the cylinder heads back. Wider 4.25 Dunlop tires, gave it a better ride.

[@drebuckakadjgzy1470]

[@johnhughes3796]

If it weighs a ton and won't go around corners it must be a Gold Wing 😅

[@fadingbeleifs]

You've obviously never been on a Goldwing... Try one sometime before you open your mouth again.

[@donniebrookins6215]

Only weighs 1200 lbs now

[@fadingbeleifs]

These were about 584 lb... This is a GL1000.. They came from the factory like this, this bike has not been stripped. Aftermarket fairings like the Vetter Wind Jammer were available...

[@m.n.8957]

Nothing special about it really. The carbs and exhaust, so what. The paintjob looks stock and the handlebar, cockpit and headlight looks bad.
