    Hi, I owned two Goldwings in the 1970s 1978 and 1979. Unfortunately due to a serious accident, I had crushed that motorcycle partly caused by a car that did not give me right of way. I was so in love with that Goldwingh, after my recovery I bought another new one!!! Those Honda Goldwings are such a King of Motorcycles on the road. Just listen to this barking of the boxer engines and those two grandiose exhaust systems!!!! It was a real pleasure and joy to ride that bike in those days. Thanks for sharing this valuable video my friend. Greetings,,,,, Walter 👍😎💪

      Yes, you're not the first, there are a lot of differences in the carbs and the heads between years that are not apparent on the surface.

    Nice vid thanks. I agree with the cafe racer remarks. I've seen far fewer nice ones in Goldwing guise! Are the Ltd's fetching any more money these days?

    How is the market for parts?
    Also In reference to the power have you rejetted the system to your altitude, that will destroy power output

      The market for parts is great, especially at my house. I have never rejected the systems. I don't reject many things, especially beer and women

    I may buy one this weekend but would like to remove the windjammer, do you know if the original brakets are still in your motorcycle? I am wondering if all I have to do is remove it and buy a new headling and turn signals? wiring difficult? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

    • @zosxavius

      The windjammer is just mounted to brackets . It all comes off. Usually they leave the fork ears intact so all you would need is a standard 7" Stanley headlight housing and turn signal stalks.

    I can't stand that ugly Veder fairing and that touring seat. They really take away from such a nice bike.
