Okay I hope someone sees this. How and what is going on with the radio deck? I would love to update mine to something like that to be able to use the speakers on the bike.

"You know"..

Had a pair (160-60 & 120-70 17’s) on my GSX750F with absolutely no issues whatsoever, mostly quick road use on twistie A roads, going to put a pair on my Bandit 12 in the next few days, wish me luck… 😂 On a serious note, probably one of the best budget tyres I’ve ever tested and more than a match for the Metzeler Z6’s they replaced… Some tyres I just wouldn’t recommend full stop, these in my opinion/experience are definitely worth a shout… Just cos it’s got X, Y or Z emblazoned on the side of it it doesn’t automatically mean it’s the best… 🙂

Had my 83 Interstate for 12 years now. Anything newer has a lot of added plumbing and sensors that I don't want to deal with.

We all know which one to go it's just that bank balance matters and habits of driving 😂

The KLR needs the 649cc from the Ninja 650.

These wings are capable of going well over 500,000 miles. Every time I change the oil I automatically change the coolant at the same time, mine is a 1986 Honda gold wing interstate.

I've got a 76 gl 1000 in my garage that my dad left me when he passed away 2 years ago come Jan 18th. as a kid, I went everywhere with my dad if he was taking the bike out. its metallic red and naked. My dad bought it 2 years old in England, and brought it over to Canada in 1980. Very good memories on this bike. its in pieces atm. My dad had started rebuilding it but never got the chance to finish it. maybe one day when funds permit, Ill be able to see this thing ridable again. Crazy fact that not a lot of people know: when the gl 1000 was released, it was one of the fastest accelerating motorcycles in the world. Made perfect sense why my dad bought it. He had to have the baddest bike out of all his buddies! lol

To me the most appealing thing of old bikes is working on them. I'd actually rather have a bike that needs work than one that doesn't.

I like the mirrors, the view seems to have very little vibration unlike the stock Gen 1 mirrors, are those the Double Take mirrors?

I met a guy at the gas station with a 1980 Goldwing with a matching sidecar. It even had Honda badges on it, though he said it made by a company here in the states. It was the coolest thing. I look for first and second gen, GL1000 and GL1100’s sometimes. The newer versions have so many appealing features but the ‘78-‘80 models look so good.

I need to do the progressive springs. I did the dash and foot pegs when I first bought my 2011 three years ago.

is 8900 good for a brand new 650 with abs?

Dude, stupid people are not buying vintage Gold Wing ever. You know why? Because they are stupid!

You know

Would you say 7000 for a used ninja 2020 krt edition with 3.5k miles is a lot?

I'm looking at a 84 GL1200 standard and the nearest shop is over an hour from me so I will be doing most maintenance myself. Does much if any of the difficulty come from the removing all the extra stuff from the interstate models?

I have a Royal continental gt 650 and i'm really thinking about having a goldwing, i know it may not be as convenient cuz of technology and safety but i'm so in love with it, thoughts and reccomendations? Would it be better to go for a cb 750f??

Put a 16th front sprocket on it, and keep it at 5k rpm. You won't burn oil.

Totally stupid video, many things completely wrong. These are easy to work on, just watch a TH-cam video first - don't listen to this fool!

That’s a beautiful bit of country you were driving through in this video what state is it?

I always use this trade Kenda, that is very nice.

I own a 2021 Ninja650-It's quick-you're up to LEGAL speed almost as quickly as the supersports and that's good enough for me.Also excellent brakes-the entire bike has Kawasaki engineers behind it so you can't go wrong.

Excellent video. I ride 2001 KLR650 in the mtns of South Central Pennsylvania. It's like the Kentucky mtns.

I had both ninja 650 and zx6r. I felt more comfortable on zx6r. Also handled much better than ninja 650

Clockwise only and after 5 it will go to 1 again,, 2 people is a full load, leave on #5

My grandpa in law just gave me his 1982 goldwing. Has historic plates and all.

Whats the fastest youve (allegedly lol) ridden with these tires?

what is the difference of having a Ninja650 2021 model to lastest version of ninja650

Should be fine at a track day event, just depends how fast of a rider you are.

I personally just love all the aspects of the Wing. I enjoy working on them because I can do my own work and I like to see if there are areas needing attention or just cleaning up. The weight is great, considering that it's a tourer machine, and the size of 1st gen's (flat 4's) is nice due to not being super huge to maneuver. The maintenance is critical but not excessive, and it will pay off after rolling the odometer over twice. It isn't a crotch rocket, but there are things, everyday Joes, can do to help it out a bit. Their price isn't overwhelming, only modest, which opens up opportunity to upgrade if desired.

What kind of mount is that? Phone or GPS?

as a previous owner of a 1982 Aspencade and over 30 thousand miles. back in the day you could take to the Honda dealer, no so much today. independent shops are hit and miss at best. glad to see so many assorted youtube repair videos they help. so be ready to do 90% of your own work if needed. suggest don't cheap out pay the price get the best vintage GW you can find. fact is if i wanted to tour the USA by motorcycle it would be a 1980s GW.

Hey guys, thinking about getting this as my first bike next summer season. Here’s my concern, I’m 6’4 300lbs. I don’t want to be a “BROTHER🦅”, will this fit and work for me?

I have a 50cc scooter since I was 17, just turned 20 so I can get my a2 license. Is the 650 a good sporty bike that’ll fit me? I’m 6’2 so I’m scared I’m a bit too tall for it. I want something a bit fast and fun that I can take to uni daily

I've got the same generation and color. I love the bike. I've got 36k miles on it, I'm considering buying a ZX-6R for something new and a bit different. Still keeping the 650, though.

I got a 86 Gl1200 love it

I have a 2024 R with manual and love it. People give it a bad rap because their to judgmental on it. It's not fast, just looks like it. I ride one because a illness prevents me from riding my 2 wheeler. I enjoy it and don't care what people think of it.

anyone in tennessee looking for a gl1000 i have a very nice bike that needs finished....

I had the KM1's on my 2004 FJR1300, they went 13,000 miles on mostly freeway, dry, straight roads. I thought they were real good. I paid $178 for the set which i thought was real cheap, im now on the Road6 GT's. I doubt the price difference will correlate with the tire mileage.

Number 3............affordability.

Make that "4" things you need to know, one of which being how to clear warning messages off the TFT!

what was that at 2:00 ?

i do the same in NJ

Where do you get your aftermarket mods? Like the radio and the speakers and stuff?

What king of handlebar do u use for your KLR65?

Just finished my second week of 55+ hours at work I’m hoping to be able to pick one up real soon, gonna make it happen

I have a 1987 everything done on it. Needs a little cosmetics for sale. 3500.00

That's not a ninja 650 2023. What year is that one?

I keep buying these for less than $300 and cleaning the carbs and tank. Usually only thing wrong.
