1500 Goldwing isn't that bad try a BMW K1200LT.

I had a 1984 Goldwing. I bought it in 1990 withabout 50,000 km on it. In 2014, I wanted a new bike, so I sold it for $500, with a dead stator. I rolled that odometer over twice... 270,000 kilometers and the bike looked almost new. Finish cleaning up that bike and it'll be something you'll be proud to ride for another twenty years.

Amazing accomplishment!

Wow, you have both skills and patience to treat an old lady like Gl1500, this was a joy to watch! I own '89 GL1500 and it had many similar problems and then some, fuel petcock valve, accelerator pump, shoddy wiring just like yours, non working air horn using garden hoses etc. I removed and restored everything. I should have made a video of it all! It is still far from perfect but the ride quality is such that I happily work with this bike. I'd like to remind you some of the important safety issues: Brakes: Foot brake is split between rear and front rotors and right hand brake works only with the right side front brake. Make sure you have them working and practise hard braking, because GL1500 is heavy and the brakes are nowhere near the performance of modern bikes. Windshield: buy a new one immediately, your current one will blind you when it gets dark, all you see is a white radiant screen of opposite traffic headlights. Cruise control: it is laggy, so it will take couple of seconds to engage. If it does not work check right hand brake wiring first, because that is the one which corrodes worst. On my bike previous owner had it detached and naturally that was the last thing I checked. You can get new LCD screen for $80 or so from ebay, it is worth changing so you will get more information what the bike wants to tell you. 3 ohm speakers are hard to find and 4 ohm work but are quiet, I guess they are easier to find in the USA. Last thing: check that the anti-dive mechanism and fork seals work, since otherwise you will bottom out and that will cause damage or even a loss of control. That's all, I wish you happy journeys with your Gold Wing!

Great video Darrell. As usual. I'm not sure but, I think when you tried to pull out for the first ride, the reason it didn't go is because the kickstand was down. I know there are some bikes that are set up that way as a safety precaution. Just be careful out on the road. Keep an eye behind you when approaching a stop sign or traffic signal in case someone behind you is reading or sending a text. They might not see that you are stopped. It happened to me. I always make sure to point my bike to the right of a vehicle stopped in front of me so that if that happens and someone hits me in the rear, it will shoot me beside that vehicle instead of crushing me between the two vehicles. I might still get hurt, but at least I won't be taken away in a shoe box. LOL. Good luck and enjoy the open road. It can be a ton of fun.

You make me want to buy a bike and learn to ride. I'm 70, maybe it's too late. It was a pleasure watching your videos of this bike. Be careful out there!

Thank you so much Donald I really appreciate it!!🙂🙂

My uncle had the GL1800 and he loved it,he would even ride it in the winter bc it had a electric heater on it. Eventually he turned it into a trike. He took it from riner V8 to San Francisco California and back. He passed away and now his son has it sitting in his garage for the last 11 years still in great condition.

And we are back! Great to see you put it back together. Was waiting for this one😁

Awesome! what a journey, thanks for bring me along - I suspect the edit makes it look WAY simpler than it was, cant help thinking that it needed a hella lot of figuring out where all the bits whent!

Being that old the Honda is attractive luxury cruiser of a bike. You have brought it back to great condition!

Dang Darrell I didn't expect it to come out that nice, but for 200 bucks and some elbow grease you just got your self tons of future enjoyment on the open road. I've had a Honda CBR 1000, it was fast but not nearly as smooth as I would imagine that being. I hope to get a ride on it soon or drive it ;) ....anyway good job brother....great build.

Thank you very much. It was definitely a tough job but well worth it.

That bike is extremely lucky that you found it and brought it back to life after years of neglect. A job very well done and a great video.

Thanks for the very enjoyable videos. I'm a long time Goldwing fan, with my first being a 1988 much like this one when I was 22 years old. It was a great feeling seeing this bike come back to life. 👍

Excellent job young man! I don't think I could ever have the patience to take on such a task. I even bought a Guzzi for the ease of maintenance and accessibility of the engine. I'd still like a Gold Wing someday though.

Well done. I can’t fathom how Honda designed and produced these full dressers. Quite an undertaking to restore it.

Very nicely done - I reconditioned an 1100 Goldwing a few years ago - and drove it 12,000 miles before passing it on. That bike will take you anywhere in the country on any road you choose - - take a trip this summer.

That’s awesome Dave thank you for your wonderful comment

1 year later. I am about to enter into your world. I have an '86 to be delivered next week. Not quite as neglected as yours, but will take a prayer and some luck. Your video is going to be heaven sent. I have restored an ' 86 Virago, so we will see. If my Goldwing is saveable, I will buy you a beer my friend. Thankyou. DG from Canada eh?
