- This is my 1981 Honda Silverwing GL500. Bought it off the second owner who had it 15 years. Fixed the leaks, electrical problems, fork seals, radiator impeller and it now flies! Air suspension, 5 speed, all original with 64000 miles.....This is a test of my new settings got the GoPro4

20 years ago I had a 1983 honda GL650 silverwing interstate, full hard baggage, passenger seat. NEVER should have sold that bike. Now I'm looking for another, probably never find the same style. Great bike, I learned on it.
I used to have an '82 Silver Wing... ex-girlfriend was very upset when I traded it in for a BMW R65 LS... Very comfortable ride for rider & passenger; took to the freeways well; one of the bikes I've had that I should've kept... Whenever I hear the sound of a CX500, I think of the"GL" I had, and sigh...The transverse V engine.. the sound of it... the way it handled the road... (Yeah; 20-20 hindsight kickin' in...)
Started out on a '78 CX500 in '86, had a CX500D and a GL500. I moved on over time, but they were fun bikes for their days.
LOVE these bikes! I have a '81 GL500 that is absolutely among my favorite bikes that I've ever owned. Great little machine!
Beautiful motorcycle. You would never need more bike than that.
Second owner of a CX500 , only transportation for years ,finally got a car and only used it for grocery store runs and driving to work on rainy days. Tires ,oil and gas was only thing you had to spend money on. Unbelievable dependably
Love this bike, now we're spoiled with so many high horsepower cruisers. Friend of mine rode a 50-55 HP bike to different states with no issues. I'm spoiled I drive a '99 Valkyrie.
Really cherry bike. My little bro had one back in the ‘80s and I would totally ride this now👍
I recently bought a '81' gl500 and absolutely love it! Its so much fun to ride and it keeps up with my riding buddies Harleys; yeah man! Currently buying parts to modify into partial cafe racer style.
Don't F it up. Leave it stock.
It really is a touring bike. For a cafe racer, get a CX500.
sounds sweet man, lovely bike......
"Don't mind the goat" thumbs up just for that! Awesome bike though.
A good hyper reliable touring bike, moderate weight, low seat height.. and about the best weather protection I have ever found in a motorcycle. Well engineered bags, and fairing. Put the best tires you can find on it.. and don't over inflate the suspension. Luckily the rear has an over pressure relief valve.. which saved my bacon.. but really.. don't blow it up !
There is one of these forsale cheap near me, in considering snatching it up
Damn that thing is stupid clean
You should see my 1982.
Cool 🏍 bike
Hmm, Crest! nice
I really want to own same bike
Kept waiting for the twisties, but they never came.
Those original bars are awful! I swapped mine with Goldwing bars and absolutely love them, so much better! They are great bikes.
What mirrors and windshield do you have?
What mirrors are those? I'm looking for a better fairing mirror than the emgo.
Not sure. Sold the bike for a better GL500 - and mine now are chrome
They are nice bikes but with the Interstate name you'd think they would have geared them for actual interstate use, that poor engine screams at 70 mph.
Passes the semis fine at 80 mph :-) The 1983 650cc version is supposed to have slightly better ratios. I think I had mine nudging up to 90mph (it was just like this one). Terrific bike. PS: I can confirm that the GL650I has better ratios... 4th gear is like the 5th gear on the 500, and 5th gear is good.
MAGA
bad bad bad sound
You think THOSE are twisties !!! rofl...
They are twisties for cruisers and touring bikes.
Call them twistys ??? You need to come over to the U.K. then you will see some real twistys !!!!! L.O.L........
