as an original generation Gold Wing enthusiast, I'm in tears

[@Michealsarver]

When did anyone ask?

[@tunerimpala5658]

Who the Fuck cares

[@thebigmarcooch]

Man I just bought the same bike and am tearing it apart as we speak. Your video series has been unbelievably helpful. Keep up the great work, I’ll be following along. I can’t thank you enough. Cheers!!

[@HooptieDoodle]

😀 thanks dude! And best of luck on the bike build 💪

[@SurpriseMechanics]

This video is all over the place. Starting, stopping, different music everywhere. Lol

[@skipmilligan]

Bike builder...not video editor. 😉

[@jckcc]

At least it makes it feel way shorter than it is

[@Fallen608]

It was like having a seizure in video form.

[@jessemeyer3052]

I think it is a testament to your video abilities that while I'm not building a bobber, I find almost all of your videos to be very informative for GL1100 repair. Thanks for all of the effort you put into the videos.

[@HooptieDoodle]

We'll thanks for watching and thanks for the very nice comment 👍. I am glad the videos are helpful.

[@bobbybrummett7384]

Best looking gold wing I ever saw

[@baldvale5418]

Iv'e always wanted a Goldwing since i was a kid, now i want a Goldwing a whole lot more.

[@frankmorris2603]

What a top idea. Best thing for a Goldwing.

[@waiwong7996]

Now this is bloody awesome. A bike that most don't usually custom and it's finally not those drag 'carbon' builds

[@Kevscancave]

Beautiful Build! 👍👀👍

[@Viejo93]

To the ones putting their two cents in, it isn’t your style because it isn’t your bike. Awesome job dude!

[@jamesnusky6257]

so cool. love the skills my friend.

[@jch928]

I did a 1983 and it turned out wonderful, love these bikes, they pull like a freight train.

[@markd7811]

Yeah, that's a beautiful bike !!!!! Great job!!!

[@Prophiseas]

Well done, thanks for taking everyone along with...

[@HooptieDoodle]

Thanks for watching, I super appreciate it!

[@soheilhooshmandi3076]

i just love goldwing engine sound no other bike have this amazing music

[@itsnotreels]

I'm confused to see this , so brilliant idea , its so cool

[@tonyhadden4651]

So professional all the welding and electrics etc brilliant

[@marionmiroslavic3095]

Definetly

[@blogusvox]

That's sarcasm, right?

[@daniluchison]

OUTSTANDING. I'd only try to get the tank looking a bit more normal, the cut off looks odd. But all in all, amazing work.

[@jabber1425]

This made my morning!!! Awesome build.. great video, thanks for sharing. Love the "snowmobile style" springs on the exhaust! 🍻🍻

[@stevenhumphries110]

Clever chap...superb !

[@ourlifeinwashington4114]

I have a 79 Honda Goldwing GL and am turning it into a cafe racer. Thank you so much for the video

[@HooptieDoodle]

Good luck on your build 👍. There are also some detailed videos on how I built the bike and maintenance items, such as converting to a single backbone on the frame and updating the idler bearings with KIA ones. kzbin.info/aero/PLMBdFByBzwziDGCKPuhVvJ6urdGYnZSdi

[@Thrillrider10]

This thing is so wicked. It has a sort of ratrod-bobber fusion thing going for it. I dig it.

[@HooptieDoodle]

Thanks man!

[@doylehurt2014]

Good job! Love the finished product

Mad respect to ya. Love those goldwing builds.

You've just built my perfect motorcycle. I wouldn't change a thing...... Totally awesome!

My man! 👊

[@skynwalker1496]

Hell yes! Looks amazing, gonna be using many excerpts from this series to help with my 83 GL1100 build, thanks for the thorough documentation and inspiration

[@HooptieDoodle]

Thanks bro, good luck on your build! 💪👍

[@Gl-my8fw]

Had some idiot take me out and destroy my tour pack etc so if it isnt written off in going for a build this winter. Really hoping i can keep it alive.

[@flatfour7506]

Excellent, it’s mind boggling to watch in a few minutes, all your work. Light hearted video. Read a comment to change tank. That’s what makes the bike. Old goldwings never die, they just re incar Nate.

[@marcoschavez5752]

Damn! Great work! Just Freaken' great!!!

[@Jeans_and_cufflinks]

Congrats. I enjoyed watching and learning on your journey. Thanks for sharing.

This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen in my life

[@herbertthiel9287]

Meinen allergrößten Respekt für alle die sowas fertig bringen. Einfach super toll!!!!

[@willp2042]

I like the bottle, replaced by Jack when you are tired driving.

[@GiancarloFloyd]

I’ve always liked the look of the gold wing engine.

[@HooptieDoodle]

Yeah, I've got a thing for them: VW, Subaru, Goldwing 😀

[@csabaconner3396]

Awesome, awesome skooter Great work

[@dub351]

I enjoyed the heck out of this. I wish I had mechanical and fabrication skills. Nice job!

[@HooptieDoodle]

You are generous to imply that I am skilled - thank you for that 😁. But all I can say is: start working on those skills. I couldn't weld a year ago, now I can MIG weld - and it's awesome! I love it! Super fun! Wish I had done it decades ago.

[@wmcbarker4155]

@@HooptieDoodle I like paying $$$$ for it

[@daveg1208]

I've not seen many Gold Wing bobbers. You did a rather neat job of it. God bless you brother.

Thanks, my friend 👍

Way cool, I bet that thing is scary fast!

[@HooptieDoodle]

Fantastic! Glad you liked it👍. How about a full custom Grom based chopper with leaf spring front suspension? kzbin.info/www/bejne/baDTcnR9e8qDo5I

[@r-fw-bpk1109]

Great JOB !!! At 78yo a bobber wouldn't be for me BUT I love it !! Different is the only way to go ! Riding a black, you know what, that looks just like every other, you know what, is boooooring ! Great work, great job !!

[@HooptieDoodle]

Is it really not okay to say Harley 😀? Ya know I would've used a Harley if they weren't so expensive.

[@jerryvelasco1474]

Amazing build. You are truly talented. Keep up the work.😎👍

First ever bike build my ass, i have built bikes for years and i can tell you know exactly what you are doing, good job man, turned out great 👍.

[@nickchronias9546]

Skills. Respect.

[@sketchman01]

I have an 83 with a pretty similar conversion done to it. Its wild to ride.

[@KSLAMB-uz4it]

You did it alot faster then I thought was going to happen. I have an 86 Goldwing I've thought about turning into a bobber.

[@HooptieDoodle]

An '86 would be a 1200, correct? That would be a good build. It took me about eight months, but I put in 40 hours or so per week. I didn't keep track of the hours, but it was a lot. If you actually know what you are doing it would go faster 😉. Good luck!
