[QUOTE="BigAndrew, post: 21648, member: 78"] The 84 aspencade is listed for $1300 which is a steal. He lists that it has 60,000+ miles Doesn't list any problems with it The 87 is listed for $1500 doesn't say how many miles or if its a interstate or aspencade and how many miles are on it doesn't matter too much cause he list that it needs new speedo cable and rear brake adjustment I was looking at a goldwing facts page goldwingfacts.com/goldwinghistory.htm and there it says that the 87 has the best to date plush saddle to date, well except for newer models Also it says the 86 model got an upgraded 500watt alternator, so I'm assuming the 87 does as well So even tho without looking at them the 84 seems to be in better shape and is cheaper, I think it would be better to go with the 87 for the better seat and better alternator So which do you guys think is the better choice? The 84 was listed today and won't be there long at that price and the 87 was listed 2 days ago I guess I should go ahead and call both guys and get more details and their addresses [/QUOTE]
