My father passed away 18 months ago, and he left me with his 1976 Honda Goldwing 1000. He bought it brand new in England and brought it over to Canada in 1980. Its red, no fairing or luggage bags, and had custom Marshall exhaust. Its in pieces right now for my father was doing some repairs and never got to finish it. So until I find someone interested on taking this off my hands it just sits collecting dust. Id take on the job myself if I knew more about bikes and had money to do it. I would love to see this bike restored some day and Im sure my mother would also. My mum and dad went everywhere on that thing! Miss you dad!
I am so sorry to hear this. Chin up good sir. Your old man is in the midst of God's in heaven and enjoying his second innings in grandeur. Sending positive vibes and lots of love to you.
I've worked in home healthcare for 20+ years and one of my patients was a Goldwing rider. He was in his mid-80s the last time we rode together (just a few months before he died) and he STILL rode like an absolute hellion! Zipping in and out of traffic with a cigar dangling out of his mouth he scared the bejesus out of me! ;-) RC had been not just a fighter pilot but the original leader of The Thunderbirds aerial acrobatics squadron and one hell of a decent dude. He would have absolutely loved this thing... and terrorized traffic with it! ;-) Cheers.
Reimagined and a new life to old bikes is a great passion. Too bad there are not more people that can do this. Your dad obviously has skills. Thanks Kase for sharing his talents. :)
This is actually an extremely common trend, there are entire shops that strictly turn old/ugly bikes into cool cafe racers. There are some super cool builds on instagram.
@@slamboy66 if you have better or have seen better on YT…put up and show it or lead us to it….but this build here is gonna take some beating….i’ve seen hundreds on YT and in the flesh…but this is thee best yet…IMO
@@russellking9762 Look up the origins of the CAFE Racer. They don't have mag wheels and shaft drive. In high school I had a Yellow CB400 FOUR Super Sport CF.
Honda the corporation should hire your dad to work for them! This is a nice piece of machines married together. The look is fantastic. Kudos! Ride Fast!
Nice job! ( bit of an understatement, I think ) One of the best looking 'Goldwing's" that I've seen. Must have been a lot of fun to build this up. Thanks for showing this TFLbike / Kase.
I roadraced motorcycles in the 70s.. there was a gold wing entered in a five hour endurance race. I think it was a 1975 Goldwing.This was at Summit point Road race track in West Virginia. They have a 3500 foot straight away on the track. If your machine is ever going to reach TopSpeed it is definitely going to reach it there,, this Goldwing took the lead on the third lap and ran away with that race against Honda CB 750s, Kawasaki Z1900s. RDs, Kawasaki triples of all sizes, a couple Ducati’s, Just to name a few. I remember how silently it breezed down the front straightaway lap after lap.. it won the race overall with ease.. I remember the name of one of the racers, his name was Taylor, I forget his teammates name.. this was back when nobody knew with the gold one was supposed to be, before they invented the interstate with fairing and bags standard. we didn’t know if it was supposed to be a super bike, a sport bike, a standard, what was it? A friend of mine bought a 1975 Honda Gold wing. I had a 1977 Honda CB 750 F and I bought new. we ran them off on the interstate several times, and that gold wing just pulled away from my CB 750.. it was not a slouch back in the day.
Thats why my dad bought his 76 gw. it was the most badass street bike at the time. Blew away all his biker buddies ripping around the streets of Southern England lol
Pretty badass Wing, really clean build. Building up that rear-end and getting it to work properly is pretty impressive. Having the open timing belt cover is cool.
That is the best looking bike I’ve ever seen. And for me, that includes all the futuristic prototypes that are out there. This is the pinnacle for me. Thanks for sharing with us all of your hard work and skill.
What a cool freakin bike. I love that he used a Goldwing, such understated brute force to move a cafe racer. That motor barely has to even try to get that thing to MOVE. I hate screamer engines in my middle age. A bike needs to add to the tranquility of a ride, not ruin it like sound of a blender going off when your sleeping in a hammock. Your dad has style, love the build.
People shit on the goldwing as a rich man's bike or a old man's bike. Then there is yellow wolf. I don't know if he is still at deals gap. But that man would kick the dick off super bikes with his goldwing running that loop. As far as I know he still has the record for the most loops in a day and nobody's come close.
Purple one arrives tomorrow runner. Have 300 lbs of luggage and mounts to throw out first. Looking at different ideas again this is a fun bike to modify
I know I'm a little late, but stumbled across your video and had to watch it... what an amazing build, love it, I have completed a few quite easy custom builds in the past several years, just completed a 1994 BMW R1100R, kind of streetfighter ish :) I couldn't actually imagine a classic gold wing as a donor for a build like this, I can really appreciate the work that went into this, it's awesome guys, a real credit to your Dad ! I just love it, thanks for sharing this with us, take care, Jim, Bonnie Scotland.
I have been wanting to do something similar to this for years with a newer 6 cylinder Goldwing and this makes me believe it will work and incredibly well.
There not fans but yeah that’s what first got my attention there pulleys or gears probably the timing but not to smart to cut them out get a rock in there and he’s screwed but with the limited custom mods he could do guess that’s one
Great looking build. I know I bought one long ago to do a similar, but it was stolen. Never did get another. Nice to see a good one doing that idea justice. Nice interview and review
Apart from a really appealing bike project I'd like to point out that I do very much like how respectfully you both interact with each other. That isn't a given anymore in our day and age. Safe rides 👍🏍🙏 And God bless
Just happened to run across your video this morning and I am floored. I've always like the Honda Goldwing and finding myself a fan of the Cafe style bikes. Your dad did some great work and I would definitely like to learn from him seeing that we both are in GA.
I had a 79 goldwing I bought as a basket case and I rebuilt it. I always wondered how to change it up as the goldwing is an awesome platform but what you've done sir is just amazing.
Youre pop is an OG. Dude is super chill, builds and fabricates his own Frankenstein bike and judging by that neighborhood hes clearly a very successful man with good taste.
They are cam sprockets. This bike has two timing belts, one for each bank. All he did was cut a hole in the timing covers to expose the sprockets. It is a nice touch. Cool look.
I love these build dude toke one of the most unwanted bikes and spent countless hours and time and fabrication turning it in to one of the most unwanted bikes of all time good for you mate you deserve a beer
Man give some cred to that old man. He deserves it. And when you say that your dad built this... Trust me more people are gonna watch it. And to the old man who built this... Mad Respect for you sir....1000%🙏🏼❤🔥
Honestly ive always thought those goldwings had potential and mod props to your dad for using newer cbr parts. handling must be pretty good. Curious to know the final weight of the bike.
I need to weigh her, shaved about 150lbs off but that was for aesthetics which helps performance and she sits lower. Cornering is limited by steering angle and motor clearance.
So absolutely sick and tired of the Cafe Racer craze. This however is the exception. Great job, really impressive styling. While many and most tend to ruin a bikes image and style with the yet another cafe racer quest and pseudo-craftsman skills, Dad, however, made something (much) better than it was.
The most abused term in custom motorcycle building is "cafe racer" this looks more like a street fighter build to my eyes. The best custom goldwing build I've seen without a doubt.
This has body lines of a Bonneville/Norton which makes it more Cafe. A streetfighter in my eyes is a sportbike without fairings Mt09 kind of style..Just my opinion either way this is badass
I built a 1975 GL1000 cafe, single seat 20+ years ago, straight pipes, Corbin seat, electronic ignition,removed mechanical fuel pump installed electric fuel pump, Dakota Digital speedometer, led lights, Triumph wind deflector, even retimed the cams!
a 40 year old engine acting like a teenager. Best looking Gold Wing I've ever seen. The thinking that went into that bike is as valuable as many a college degree. Looks like it just drove off a racetrack a minute ago, looks like it's being stolen. She's a LOOKER, and I love her, cause I owned the 1st prototype in a silent auction in New York Mills NY just beyond the Utica Club Brewery in April 1974, some 4 months before the 1975 introductory price in August was $2695. I bid $3500 and drove the only GOLD WING in the USA for 4 months. Back then My dream bike was having a RAJAY TURBO on a CBX as that $2,000 modification was 2/3 the $3,000 MSRP and made the inline 6 a 9 second bike at nearly 150MPH in the late 70's. My prototype was faster than any Gold Wing sold to the public. If I had imagined back in 1975 to put twin turbo's on my 75 gold wing, and a fairing in the front with inverted forks, my bike could do 250 MPH easy with the right tire of course, having a blowout at over 200 MPH cannot be an option. I wonder what it must've been like for the real Burt who brought his Indian to Bonneville salt Flats from Australia. That's what this build reminds me of. Burt Monro and the worlds fastest Indian. complete dedication to detail. relentless pursuit of perfection. Thanks for sharing it! and i left the best for last, this build is a tribute to a courageous life lived in front of the builder, so this bike has a soul like no store bought bike knows.
My dad has an Old school gold wing he's had since I was like 8 yrs old. I'm 42 now. Wish he would let me build something like this out of it. From a fellow custom bike builder , excellent build you got here.
I remember when the Gold Wing came out. In 1975, I was at a magazine stand looking for the latest Cycle mag. I had no idea Honda was going to do this. My jaw was on the floor. I remember reading how easy it would be to customize and make a real fast interesting bike out of it, and I waited for this to happen. It never happened. Till now. Looks beautiful. BTW, I remember Ruffian and when she broke her leg. Also in 1975. Cool name and tribute to her.
Wow, this guy really knows what he is doing., So cool to custom your own bike or anything else custom. And after he finished the whole custom bike, it works and looks like a charm. That's a plus.👌
So pleased I found this video. This is outstanding! So many stylish inventions. This is a build to be very proud of. I just love the idea of old bike/new bike. Well done. I wish you many wonderful ride outs together.
A serious question. Do these always sound like they are running on 3 cylinders? They have such a strange firing order you can't tell if the engine is misfiring.
Incredible! I’d like to point out that USD forks need a front fender that also protects the fork tubes since they are no longer protected by the upper body. It’s why modern sport bike front fenders looks so different from sportbikes of the ‘80s. I think it’s be really cool to see what he could come up with for the same function with cafe-styling.
Kudos to your dad, He did an amazing job. One of the best old-school custom Goldwings I have ever seen!
Far from old school
@@innouniversedoineedthis It’s a four-cylinder Goldwing made into a café style, that is pretty old-school.
This bike is absolutely gorgeous, I’ve never been a huge fan of the cafe looking bikes but this is done beautifully, props pops
I think what does it for me is the thicker look it has compared to other cafe racer builds.
@@mikevlogs4501 yep, I agree. This is very unique and so nicely done.
I agree i agree
It even has a seat that looks very comfortable which is a grip of mine with nearly every cafe racer. Tyres are great as well. Love it.
@@c.a.marsupial.1282I said the same thing. Looks like father and son use the same company for seats
My father passed away 18 months ago, and he left me with his 1976 Honda Goldwing 1000. He bought it brand new in England and brought it over to Canada in 1980. Its red, no fairing or luggage bags, and had custom Marshall exhaust. Its in pieces right now for my father was doing some repairs and never got to finish it. So until I find someone interested on taking this off my hands it just sits collecting dust. Id take on the job myself if I knew more about bikes and had money to do it.

Wow! I have never seen such beautiful modification of an old bike ...
Duude, that’s an art piece! I really like his build. Congratulations
I've worked in home healthcare for 20+ years and one of my patients was a Goldwing rider. He was in his mid-80s the last time we rode together (just a few months before he died) and he STILL rode like an absolute hellion! Zipping in and out of traffic with a cigar dangling out of his mouth he scared the bejesus out of me! ;-) RC had been not just a fighter pilot but the original leader of The Thunderbirds aerial acrobatics squadron and one hell of a decent dude. He would have absolutely loved this thing... and terrorized traffic with it! ;-) Cheers.

Could have done this to a bike that wasnt a well maintained survivor.
@@Full_Otto_Bismarck then we would have had to dump at least $1k more into the engine. He did it right

Talent. Your dad’s styling and nod to a champion racehorse is very classy and appropriate for a café racer. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Your Dad must be a legend because this bike is the most amazing piece of work I have seen yet.
Sounds good? SOUNDS GREAT!!! and man, to have a dad that can create that thing would be super cool! You are a lucky dude!
That fabwork is flawless, this bike is awesome
That's beauty! I don't ride anymore, but still love looking at them. My first bike was a '77 CB550.
Incredible, amazing build. Ultimate bragging rights at the Cafe.
Not even close.

Pops did a great job. That ride is beautiful.
Its cool to see these last couple of videos from you. Really shows where you got your roots from. I miss my Dad.
This might be the coolest bike I have ever seen in my life
Your dad is a friggin legend, that thing is savage, fair play to him. All the best from Ireland.

The work around the rear of the frame and the swingarm is amazing, the underseat shocks are really clean.
Do that to a 6-cyl. A Valkyrie cafe racer.
I have a 2021 Goldwing. I didn't expect it to sound so awesome. I ride around in Sport mode just to listen.

That’s the single reason I picked this bike. It’s all about the engine.
Your dad’s build is very well imagined and executed. Lot of fabrication skill and planning too. Impressive.
Purple one arrives tomorrow runner. Have 300 lbs of luggage and mounts to throw out first. Looking at different ideas again this is a fun bike to modify
It looks more like a Bobber than a cafe racer. Such a top job by your dad, it looks awesome.
Always appreciate a person who can modify and fabricate parts to meet a certain goal.....cheers!
It takes an amazing man to build such an amazing motorcycle, your dad is a genius 👍
what a dad you have, pretty wild and still pretty humble.
The bike is awsome
Beautiful build. I love the shaft drive, as it's so quiet.
I watch this video whenever youtube recommends it, this was my third time. This bike is a work of art!

Stunning, absolutely STUNNING! beautiful build, well done. Thank you for sharing.
Very nice! Too many folks think a cafe bike is any bike with a board for a seat.
Awesome comment! So right.
How many other folks watched the whole video waiting to hear about the fans in the timing cover?
Yes
I saw that at the beginning and my first thought was "is that shit turbo'd"
I don’t think they are fans he just cut round holes in the timing cover so you can see the pulleys for the timing belt spinning
@@claytonbergyep!
There not fans but yeah that’s what first got my attention there pulleys or gears probably the timing but not to smart to cut them out get a rock in there and he’s screwed but with the limited custom mods he could do guess that’s one
