[QUOTE="Lowrider Bud, post: 220443, member: 5806"] From the title you can determine I know nothing about Goldwings, but do know my way around a motorcycle. Restored a '74 CB750-K and a '78 CB750-F. Both were more complete when I got them home than the Wing. Both were very desirable bikes when finished (if you ever actually finish a bike restoration). Both were sold for less than I had invested in them, and the new owners love their new bikes. So, I'll create a plan for the Wing and report on the progress or set-backs as I can. Here's the add that caught my attention: [b]1975 GL1000 Project[/b], [i]Replaced water pump, Timing belts, coils, head gaskets. front brakes calibers rebuilt and many other things. Owner has lost interest so its taking room up in my shop, I don't have time or interest to continue to restore/store it. Have been ask to sale it. Clear Texas title.[/i] [ATTACH type="full" alt="1975 GL1000.jpg"]21217._xfImport[/ATTACH] As she appeared before loading her in my pickup for the 230 mile trip home. It rained on the way home and for three days after. Since the bike had NO brakes and things were wet, I let her stay in the back of the truck tell it quit raining and a couple of younger stronger friends could help me unload her. She was still a handful, but now sets on my lift in the garage. I'll come back after Christmas with my plan and some more pictures. Happy Holidays, Bud... [/QUOTE]
