I pick up my 2005 Goldwing today at lunch...super excited to ride
I had one with over 300,00 miles on it with no major problems. I have a 2010 burgundy colored one now.they are very dependable good motorcycles.
I agree 100%. I own a 2003 in Jupiter Orange and wouldn't sell it for a new one....superbly comfortable and even at 80 it's easy to handle. Safe riding my friend

Just sold my 2009 Yamaha FJR1300 and bought me a 2009 Goldwing.
I couldn’t ride the FJR for more than 100 kilometres without back pains.
Just done our first tour and comfortably did 500 kilometres per day without any pains.
i own a 2002 fjr love it best bike i have ever owned and has 50,000 miles in the future i would love the goldwing 1800
Capable of a million according to Honda, and of course they are. Most riders won't do that much, but number of miles is never important except in your journey. Nice Bike.
Great video. I bought a nice 2004 (Challenger Brown Metallic/Titanium) about a month and a half ago. It’s a real joy to ride, all day on the highway or for trips to the grocery store. When the start and reverse buttons got sticky, after a good shot of DeoxIT, they were just fine. A beautifully engineered, extremely nimble bike, with power and torque to spare. Respect the beast and you will have countless happy miles. ✌🏻
4000 dollar... Wauw! In my country the bike sell for 10.000 Euro or more. ( Holland ) .
Beatifull colar! Very nice bike.
Enjoy every Mile on it. :-) Greets from the netherlands.
Bought myself this color yesterday.
Also 2005. :)
The goldwing really pushes the limit of "would it be better to just drive a car?"
I have a 2008 Goldwing with 95,000 miles on it. I was always told a Goldwing with a 100,000 miles is just broken in.
I have a 2004 Arctic White GW, and it's in pert near showroom condition at just under 20 years old. It handles like a dream, but I'm getting the suspension fully upgraded next spring at Traxxion Dynamics. Max and company will be doing the full monty for me! I'm anxious for that so that I can enjoy this Wing as it was meant to be enjoyed. It's too bad the Japanese engineers didn't do a very good job with the factory suspension on these machines, but even with the factory suspension, it's still a machine second to none.
Your bike is nice, but it could look spectacular if you detailed it. It's filthy. I realize that doesn't affect how it runs, but a clean bike is a pretty bike in my humble estimation!! Ride well!!
Just bought a 05 Anniversary edition with only 40k on it. This is my first goldwing. This video was extremely informative. Thank you.
How is that doing for you?? Going to look at an '05 dark Gray 12k miles Sunday..
I just bought one in illusion blue. WOW!!! What a machine.
I just bought me the 06 Goldwing last spring. Fantastic motorcycle, very comfortable, I absolutely enjoy every minute of riding this Goldwing. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on your purchase of your Goldwing. I like the blue also. Mine is the dark burgundy (cabernet red).
Thank you for the review. I enjoyed watching it
You got a SUPER deal on that Goldwing. Mileage is not an issue. Clean it up and be on your way!
Great review very descriptive helped me with my decision to buy one.
Great Video! I just picked up a Gen 5 2003 Goldwing! The one thing I do not like about my Goldwing is the driver's backrest. I will definitely be ordering a Kuryakyn Backrest! I didn't even know they had that until I saw your video! Jeff, Thank You so much for making the video. I really appreciate it!
Nice bike, iv just bought an 02 in red with 25k on it, lovely laid back riding style, adding my Crome slowly, lots of cleaning to keep tip top, I love cleaning my ride, stay safe mr, winter in uk now 😞🇬🇧
Great bike! You really couldn't have done better for $4K. I bought a '14 Audio Comfort Nav/XM model with 1,000 miles in '15. While the speakers are rather inept, I simply play music and GPS via Bluetooth from my phone into a Sena. Weather protection is amazing. With the exception of a hard rain, I remain dry while my buddies riding HD touring bikes get off with soaked pants. The heated grips & saddle also work great and permit me to ride year round. Still, I wish I had ABS though, but hey...it was priced way below market value and too good to pass up. Goldwings are truly comfortable bikes and I'm happy riding 500 mile days on the stock saddle with an upgraded Utopia backrest. Other mods I did included changing all lights to LEDs.
Overall, they're quite impressive bikes and very fast with tons of torque. Maintain them and they'll outlive their owners.
My exact bike, ‘sept mine is white, 50k miles on it. Looooooove it. Ride as often as I can.
I bought a 93 1500 with 32k miles for 4k a couple yrs ago, best long distance bike I’ve ever owned.
Drooling over this bike. At 22 years old im planning on getting a 2010 red goldwing. Looking forward to those lomg trips
Just got one today. Can’t wait but paid more lol
Awesome
Same bike in silver. 55k miles. Feels like a sport bike to me. This is my 38th bike I've owned in 48 years.
I bought my wing 1 year old 5000mi. Paid 11k.
No desire to upgrade.
I have that same year bike with 82k miles . Purrs like a kitten !! I pull a trailer on a regular basis and can’t tell that it’s there . Truly king of the road
Did you do all those miles and have you had any major issues?
I have a 2004 that I've had since 2012, with 123,000 miles. I can't think of any reason to buy another kind or even a newer wing because mines still rides so well. This is my third wing and all of them went for well over 100k miles.
I have a 1200 Aspencade. I haven't got a clue about working on it. I have a hell of a problem finding shops prepared to work on it.
The 18 is even more enclosed in bodywork - what are service costs like?
Just picked up identical bike/color. Only 9500 miles. Buttons, buttons, buttons. Even the dealership said it is a very common problem. You set everything up once and never use it again. Bluetooth helmets are the stereo work around.
Love the blue color. You stole that bike! I bought my 2008 with 55k last year for 6000 and I thought that was good. Mine had a few scratches, bad steering bearings, burned out headlight, dead battery, leaking fork seals and needed tires/full tuneup plus fluids. Hoping to put 200k on it and then buy the DCT for the same price 👍😀
Watching your channel and the experience you had in purchasing a GW and a number of others convinced me to not buy a new Harley (#7) but to keep the one I have (Electra Glide) and look for a GL1800. I found an 08 with 26k miles (Comfort / NAV /Audio) in pristine condition. Mine also came with an extra set of new tires, a Garmin Zumo GPS and a number of other bling style items that I can live with or without. I didn't get it for the smokin deal you did, but I am happy not laying out 25+k for a new bike (Harley or Honda) and picking up this bad boy. I paid 10k for mine, but had a budget of 30k so I feel I did well too. 20k to be used for something else.
You will not regret it! Terrific machine built in the good old USA!
If ever put a voltmeter on bike make sure is in green as you will see it. The red and blue color numbers washes out in the daylight
Yes, that was a good price.
amazing bike sir .. you are like a god to me sir in statics and solids if ever god decides to learn statics and solid he will watch your videos . please dont ignore your main channel
I think I would have washed and detailed my bike before I showed it to the world. Also, it looks like a bike that lives or has lived outside...
Hi does the air suspension of the gold Wing problematic?
Thanks for the video and that is a really pretty older Goldwing. I am on my third one a 2012 Airbag model. A little tip, clean the switches with some WD40 and then clean that out with some electronic cleaner to get rid of the 40. I do this once a year and will never have trouble with the buttons. On now some tips, the two top buttons you showed for the radio and cb was where you change from the headset to the outside speakers. The opening ceremonies can be programmed to say your name or anything when you turn the key and power up. My 2012 has 77K miles on it. I sold my last one at 157K miles. I subscribed to your channel and I invite you to visit my channel. Thanks and be safe out there.
What setting for air ride if u weigh 215, height 5'8, will never have a passenger, and need the softest ride due to boo boos from Iraq? Getting my buddy's 08 with 50k for 4k.
too funnyy.. too MuCh STUFF !... i HAVE 1.25 MILLION miles under me, since 1976.. Tire repair, soft cooler, thats it.. tools basic tho.. rain suit of course.
My husband just got a 2005 goldwing silverback but the radio doesn’t have a good signal! Where I can fiend the owner manual and he can ck what can be done! Any sugestión?
Join GoldWing maintenance group on Facebook. Someone will have the answer
@@engineeredchannel5649 thank you!
IMO, the GL1800 is the best bike ever built. I have logged over 400k on 5 different Wings. And many more on Harleys and other bikes. About the only thing that I don't particularly care for about the Wing is many of the riders are pricks. And the forums are the worst of any forums concerning censoring and people just being smug, holier than thou, aholes.
Use some armeral on that poor thing dam.
I have a 2004 and it looks like it just came off dealers floor. Treat her right brother.
not air ride adjustable preload adjust
nothing wrong with it? replace that rvs switch lube is a waist of time.

So outdated. So many buttons. Goofy
