I've never liked it when people turned these into bobbers or bikes along those lines but you did an incredible job on this one. It really looks great. Well done man. I'd be proud to ride that bike.
So glad you have rebuilt it respecting the legacy, not adding some stupid large chrome wheels! Those old school gauges - beautiful. Running engine sounds really smooth. Wishing you miles and miles on it!
Thank you everybody for the public comments I really do appreciate the kudos hopefully I can get this bike sold and do another one in a reasonable amount of time thanks again!
I could notice at certain angles the pearl in the black you mentioned. Sweet! I've been wanting a custom goldwing but I don't want to use my 82 interstate or 85 aspencade so I'll find a standard 1100 and go from there. Man, your ride is 'smokin!' NOW THAT WAS A "SHOW AND TELL"!
This bike looks absolutely fantastic ! I love the blacked out look and how you took all of the unnecessary stuff off. As you said, Honda should've made them like this ! :D
@@joerigillissen9324 i dont think my opinion matters to a massive company like honda. Im just stating that it was unnecessary to make the goldwing more sporty when the whole point was to make it the most comfortable ride for long distances. They have sport bikes and adventure bikes for those people. People CAN make their own decisions now but honda seems to want to make the goldwing just like any other motorcycle.
@@ConservativeCalifornian1032 - Can't help it, I have to say this... These bikes DID NOT start out to be a " most comfortable long distance bike"! They actually came out naked, and there was a great deal of chatter around the local Honda dealership of how great they would be *Supercharged", as the liquid cooling, and 'shaft drive' would help in that vein. Honda had their 750 cc bike, and it was 'over the hill' at 6 yrars old, and getting creamed by the other 'Yakaduki' bikes, in shear out acceleration. Durability was being surpassed by the other big 'hot rod cruisers ' of the day. The bike was big, STRONG , and appealing to - SURPRISE... touring types. Who bolted all kinds of, what we called, " garbage" on them, which changed the direction of the bike forever . A lot of us simply lost interest at that point, and turned our attention to other avenues. I mean who wanted a "garbage wagon" with a ton of crap on them ? We wanted 'slick & fast, and we wanted it to LOOK FAST, too. Fortunately, for Honda, there were a hell of a lot of people that did not share the interest of myself & our friends, at least as far as the GL was concerned. And the rest is history. But the direction of the big GL's was determined by how 'people customized' them, not by the original factory offering. I considered one myself, at the time. I could just see that big blower sitting atop the motor, and I wondered if I could tune it to ' surge' like the blown V-8 cars. What a fantasy, I was enjoying, untill the " touring crowd" got hold of them with Craig Vetters help and ruined it all ! Oh well, life goes on.
Okay you win. I like that bike a lot. I've been thinking of picking one of those up and attempting something like that. They are out there for cheap and using your build as proof they can look very cool. Thanks for the inspiration.
What a nice modernization of a fine time piece, your work and results are well done! Appreciate you sharing with us, Thank you Just picked up a decent shape low mileage 83 GL1100 standard. Ride On
Killer build going to snake that rear end for my next wing. I was looking at the jerky windjammer on a 76 i inherited. Dig the customization going to have to try that.
Kevin, bang up job on this. And thanks for not cutting it up into another "cafe racer". You got good taste, and you dont see goldwings like this everyday. 👍👍
12K miles... hardly broken in. My '84A has 112K, my '86 reads 75K, love 'em both. Thought about modding but after riding a couple years have great respect for Japanese engineering for American riders. Classic bikes.
Really love what you do with the old wings, currently trying to get one myself, it's good to see such superb work coming out of a place so close to me, I live in southeast Missouri
It's nice to hear from you I appreciate all of the kudos on my work. Feel free to reach out to me on the email address and phone number on my website: grubbsgarage.com
I am working on a 86 GL1200 Interstate currently an I am looking to do something close to your front end... Just wanted to say you have done an amazing Job bro.!.
Nicest modified Goldwing I've seen!
I've never liked it when people turned these into bobbers or bikes along those lines but you did an incredible job on this one. It really looks great. Well done man. I'd be proud to ride that bike.
100%👍
I usually hate custom builds but holy moly this thing is incredibly well done fantastic job mate
So glad you have rebuilt it respecting the legacy, not adding some stupid large chrome wheels! Those old school gauges - beautiful. Running engine sounds really smooth. Wishing you miles and miles on it!
Thank you!
Hey dude Awesome bike good job!
but what gauge did you use? is it a GPS? How did you hook up the tach and speedometer?
One of the best custom goldwings, I have ever seen.
Palpatine .... It gives me more Lord Helmet vibes from Spaceballs with that front fairing! ^^
We got a comedian! Not everythhing is for everyone.
@@blkbtch I dont think thats a negative thing but yeah it does give Lord Helmet vibes lol
Go ride your overpriced pile of a Harley. At least the goldwing is one of a kind unlike your lookalike hells angel wannabe sportster
Thank you everybody for the public comments I really do appreciate the kudos hopefully I can get this bike sold and do another one in a reasonable amount of time thanks again!
Still hasn’t sold yet? I feel like this should have went a long time ago. Did an amazing job with it.
Beautiful bike. I’m wondering if you’ve ever done a similar style build on a six cylinder Gold Wing ?
I would very much like to discuss purchase…..
@@StellsBellz its sold
That thing is bonkers and soo clean
Incredible job my man
I own a 1984 has 120k on her. Your bike is amazing I'd take that over a Harley any day...
My father has an 84 interstate with 24k original miles. He bought it in Capitola, california in 1986 i believe. Mint and beautiful
I'd take a vespa over a Harley
Incredible craftsmanship
I could notice at certain angles the pearl in the black you mentioned. Sweet!
I've been wanting a custom goldwing but I don't want to use my 82 interstate or 85 aspencade
so I'll find a standard 1100 and go from there. Man, your ride is 'smokin!'
NOW THAT WAS A "SHOW AND TELL"!
That has to be the best looking custom Goldwing I have ever seen. Very well done. Looks like it would be a blast to ride.
agreed that looks incredible
wow man is the best customized Goldwing I ever saw !!! beautifull
Wow! This thing is slick! The fit and finish is very professional!
that is the meanest Goldwing ive ever seen- cannot believe how good that looks. I am so inspired by your build!
This bike looks absolutely fantastic ! I love the blacked out look and how you took all of the unnecessary stuff off. As you said, Honda should've made them like this ! :D
Honda has plenty of other offerings for smaller faster bikes. The goldwings are touring bikes and thats how they should stay.
@@ConservativeCalifornian1032 "Should stay" How about let everyone make their own decisions

Just incredible, and HIGHLY inspiring!
This has to be the best gl1200 build I’ve ever seen. I’ve been looking for inspiration for what to do with my 84 Aspencade.
That bike turned out sweet
Great work. You made a great bike even better!
That bike is sick man. I have a 1991 fxr. Gotta love the old bikes.
FANTASTIC motorcycle !! Well done !
I own a 1990 SE Goldwing and I am building a cruiser out of a 1982 GL1100 Golding Interstate. Great video, I love seeing these old Goldwings live on.
Beautiful bike you do great work, I always wanted to find and work on these naked goldwings , for some reason I like the look of these bikes, nice job
Outstanding work - Been looking for an '84 to build
Beautiful gl1200, great work. I have a '86 special edition, seeing the countless small custom details you put in your bike is impressive.
Thank you.
Wow! Very impressive. Gorgeous bike!
Wow, what a stunning bike!!
What a beautiful job you did the paint and everything is perfect,nice ride
Fantastic cool bike, extremely good looking! Very good work! Greetings from germany!
AWESOME job sir! looks fantastic, I would love to copy your work on my GW project!
we need a video of that thing in motion. amazing build
Okay you win. I like that bike a lot. I've been thinking of picking one of those up and attempting something like that. They are out there for cheap and using your build as proof they can look very cool. Thanks for the inspiration.
That is a labor of love, and I may imitate some of your designs into the one I was just given. That is one VERY nice bike.
You made that thing awesome looking! Great job!
Fine work, Brutha! I had 1981 GL1100 that became my first build. They're a great machine. Love the paint!
That is fantastic and pretty fond of the eighties goldwing fearing myself but that is a beautiful build
What a nice modernization of a fine time piece, your work and results are well done! Appreciate you sharing with us, Thank you Just picked up a decent shape low mileage 83 GL1100 standard. Ride On
I freaking love that thing!
Wow awesome build!
Well done. Beautiful!
This was very tastefully done. I would run the louder exhaust myself because, you know, at idle, it probably sounds just as smooth. I really dig it.
Yeah im in love with that. I would make the pipes bark just a bit more.
Beautiful machine well done
Dude..
The bike looks freaking awesome 👌...!
Nice job..!!
Ive never been a fan of Goldwings.. But man is thing thing a work of art.. Very Nice!
This is a very cool ride. This bike should give you decades of fun.
Killer build going to snake that rear end for my next wing. I was looking at the jerky windjammer on a 76 i inherited. Dig the customization going to have to try that.
Beautiful build
Kevin, bang up job on this. And thanks for not cutting it up into another "cafe racer". You got good taste, and you dont see goldwings like this everyday. 👍👍
