Here is my beloved 1976 Honda Goldwing. 32. 000 miles from new ?ˆ“ fresh MOT. Rides superbly. very smooth and is not as lardy as at looks. Reliable. dependable and a sure fire classic machine. Much admired.
This is a really. really nice machine ?ˆ“ not quite a 1st prize show winner but it?ˆ™s still looking very. very good for its 36 year age. It was valued by a club member at £4. 00 and I am sure ones as original as this. if you can find one. will continue to climb up.
In 2011. as I rode to work. a small rattle started which I noticed as I pulled up and parked. coming from the left hand side. Not loud. but easily discernible as not being right. I parked it up in the garage. with a cover on and now 3 years later. I have just had it fixed at a classic bike shop locally in Hockliffe.
The problem was a bolt on one cam pulley which had come a fraction loose and the pulley was moving back and forth creating a slight rattle. Wish I had got it fixed two years before. Anyhow it?ˆ™s now. serviced. oil changed. has a new battery and its ready to cruise away on.
It is a truly great machine to ride ?ˆ“ comfortable and stylish without all the clobber that later Goldwing?ˆ™s come with. So with that in mind - it?ˆ™s easily worth (£4000-£5. 00). Some people are asking over £6. 00 for similar condition machines. This is ideal for a serious hunter of classic machines ?ˆ“ please do come and view. don?ˆ™t just bid.
Reason for sale ?ˆ“ new house means toy collection is getting a trim ?ˆ“ something has to go.
Thank you
