Honda Goldwing GL1000 1979

A stunning example in excellent condition. Gold Wing GL 1000 kicked off an entirely new, ultimately profitable genre of motorcycles in 1974. It certainly was not like anything that preceded it, from Japan or any other nation. It was a segment-buster, an aftermarket industry catalyst, and was one of a number of products that made Honda a household name in America. The 1979 Gold Wing GL 1000 doesn't look much like the Gold Wing that most people have in mind. However the Gold Wing was a wild success; according to Honda over 97,000 GL1000s were sold in the USA from 1975 through 1979. 990 cc Four stroke, opposed boxer four cylinder SOHC, 2 valve per cylinder 5 Speed Shaft Drive
