1984 Honda Goldwing GL1200A Ep01 - Luggage, Seat, and Wheel Removal | JHG

In this video, I introduce the newest project on the channel and my new motorcycle, a 1984 Honda GL1200A Goldwing Aspencade. I picked up the bike in early April, and am working to getting it in tip top shape to cover some big miles this summer. I start by removing the saddlebags and top case to gain access to the rear wheel, and remove it and the front wheel to mount new tires. Then I replace the rear brakes and reinstall the rear wheel.
This video was recorded with a GoPro Hero 5, and edited with Adobe Premiere Pro.
Recorded between 5/20 - 6/1/2021

Bought this exact bike in mint condition with 50k miles. Over a year all the plastic for the truck and side saddles because the plastic is expired, plus the saddle covers flew off. Damn shame lol

My old boss must have reassembled it! He was a big fan of "a different bolt for each hole"...lol!

Plus I have a van that I am working on without any cover to work out my plans for my own garage , plus my own bike trailer

[@CharlesDRay-wf1jk]

That's for sure because I really need hands-on being able to learn more about my bike as well as to help someone else

Great job on the video!! I have an 86 which is kinda similar on many things. the tire guy you have..FIRE HIM!! he should have caught the wheel needing cleaned.

I bought this exact bike, same color, last march with 28K miles. It was sitting in a garage since 2003, its a Ca bike, like new. Great bike.

good instructional video.....sorry you didn't say anything about checking wheel bearings

[@williamgibbs9672]

Great video! I have that bike also. I won't get rid of it. I just finished up on a 98 GL1500 and also have the 06 GL1800. They all great motorcycles. I like it when I see people restoring them. Seems that there is a lot of that going on lately.

Great video. I would never use the place that mounted your tires again if they ignored the corrosion the first time round. Cow-------BOYS!
