Does anyone want the first, or rather second, GoldWing?

Maybe ~O~ can stop by and buy it for you as a late Christmas present from a loved one if you do...

 

[AApple]

Yeah..it prolly won't go much over $500... :good: :hihihi:

 

[slabghost]

While it would be nice. I'll pass.

 

[Omega Man]

Yeah, no. That exhaust looks wrong, my 75 had black exhaust with that chrome guard only. Nice bike though it should get a lot as there are still some very deep pockets here.

~O~

 

[slabghost]

Yes there are a lot at these auctions who have more money than sense.

 

[Steve83]

You mean more dollare than cents...

 

[dan filipi]

Not for me, I'm not the type to buy something like this.
It needs to be properly stored in a museum.
If it's not original it should be restored original.

 

[Steve83]

+1!

 

[K7TKA]

The mufflers are wrong.

Tim that 75 is kewl,,,. those black pipes w/chrome covers remind me of the new cl125 we had,, idk what yr. was red,, 73? put a lot of hours on that bike.. dad had a cl175, twin, that had the higher pipes,, was a lil older , dark blue,, 70? was kinda heavy for trail riding, but was screamin fast on the road,, would do 80 anyday, (with a windshield)and I've had it much faster. lil off topic,, woops

+1 :yes:

 

[Trak]

I read the auction description,, about the history of the bike, and how it was a gift, and Honda came looking for the bike,, ya , right

 

[sledge]

hmmmmmmm , I have heard some of the storys . hard to say about that kind of stuff.

 

[oldmopars]

I want a bike I can ride, I would not want to spent the money on that thing and have to leave it in a shop to look pretty. I will take mine with its little scratches and signs of love, and I will ride it with no regrets till I can no longer keep it going.

[brianinpa]

I think I read somewhere where this bike did not reach the reserve (whatever it was set at). Why own a bike just to look at? Just ride!

 

[joedrum]

beats me brian ... I cant figure this desire at all ...and would not have any part in it ...

 

[AApple]

I would certainly ride it sparingly....in good, dry weather. You can always disconnect the speedo to keep the miles down.... :smilie_happy:
Then again, it should be in a museum, for historic purposes. Even those get fired up and ridden to keep them limber. opcorn:
