[flash2002]

For sale, 1979 GL 1000 with 10000 KLM the bike was all redone, all the parts are new or rebuilt. I'm asking $3,500 or best offer. The bike is in Montreal Canada.

:shock: Dang!! You did all that resto work just to sell? :crying:

your a masterful bike craftsman ...I don't know how it runs but the look is fantastic ...of course I think 79 are the best looking stock oldwings period ....and I think yours is in top few as the best ive seen

Is that front tire mounted in the right direction? Both tread patterns are pointing in different directions. :headscratch:

Are you sure? The "V" pattern in picture #4 of the rear tire is pointing up, so is the "V" pattern on the front tire in picture #6. One of them is mounted backwards. If the tire on the rear is mounted correctly, the "V" pattern on the front would be pointing down, not up.

That or I'm losing my mind.

You're looking at the front of the front tire and the rear of the back tire. They are on the same.

 

[Omega Man]

NO!

If both tires had the tread pattern going in the same direction the back of the rear tire would be pointing up, and the front of the front tire would be pointing down.

I'm not wrong...

~O~

 

[slabghost]

I stand corrected and agree with you.

Thank you. :hi:

It's not far from your budget even though it is not a 1500 Omega Man

 

[dan filipi]

Yeah your right Randy.
Good catch!

Believe me when I say this, the 79 with a Vetter fairing has become very appealing to me lately. The fact that it already has a Dyna ignition means all I would want for this bike is that Vetter fairing. That looks like one very dependable machine which is what I'm looking for.

Many people say that they would love a new 4 cyl Goldwing if only Honda would offer them in their 2014 line. Here is a chance to own one that is close to a new model.

This bike is too far away...and not a 1500. It's going to make someone very happy though. I'm wishing a quick sale to ya Flash!

Thanks for the reply guy's, I know it's hard to sell a bike that I put a lot of work on, but I have two other bikes and out here to plate a bike is expensive. I might have a chance to try it before I sell it but right now I'm having problems adjusting the carbs. For some reason the #3 vacum wants to suck all the oil out of the home made gauge, the other carbs are normal, anybody got an idea why. Ho, and for the front tire, it's in the right direction, :good: this tire can go front or back.

 

[joedrum]

hmmmm ... this is why I like getting bike to run very well before good looking but ....im not sure on the carb thing it could be several things .....#3 carb is the one carb that has vacume for air cut off im thinking ....sheesh need to figure this out

Oh my. I think he is right the back tire is on wrong. My apolagies O

Serves me right for questioning a guy that noticed the passenger side pusher (on my bumper) was askiew (and that was from a picture). We should be calling him Hawkeye not omega
