I had high hopes for this video,.great to watch an old abandoned bike being saved and given a new lease of life, or so I thought. Trying to free the starter button with channel locks, using a Philips screwdriver on rusted JIS screws, jamming a flathead screwdriver into the ignition. Even the fact that you thought 20 plus year old timing belts would be ok had me wondering what you were thinking. This bike deserved better treatment and I'm sure there are several viewers of your video that would have wanted to be as lucky as you in finding such a barn find. I just think it's a real shame the way you're approaching this.
YUP, very cringe worthy... I bought a '81 GL1100 & '97 Valkyrie, no history for either so first to replace were the timing belts.
Apart from that, the video is just plain badly edited and boring...
Agree totally. Had to look away when he jammed that screwdriver into the key switch. Thumbs down on this video.
I was wondering where he bought his barn find dust from ?
I'm here all day for the Goldwing content! Very cool!
Had the same bike many years ago. Found the best way to use the center Stand, stand alongside the left side of the bike facing forward with your hands on the handlebars. With your right foot stand up on the center stand letting your weight push it down as you pull back lightly on the handlebars. The stand pivots right up slick as can be.😊
Yes I would love to watch that series of videos of you doing that
Japanese bikes do not use Philips or Posidrive screws, they are JIS heads, you need to get yourself a Vessel JIS impact screwdriver, then life will be much easier 😁
Currently restoring a 79 gl1000, bought a JIS screwdriver set but use my Phillips screwdrivers 99% of the time! You don’t need to buy anything.
@@WhySoSeriously101I've been working on Japanese motorcycles for 30 years and have only been using Phillips screwdriver and impacts too and I've never had a problem either.
What a waste leaving it to rot away some people have more money than sense
Wish it was me that had it
A tip for you to remove surface rust it works soapy brillo pads in hot water does great job
Watching bearded-mechanic gave lots of tips on how to work on bikes. Love the guy.
Barn find bikes, baby! Bring us more!!!!
There is a code on the ignition, take it out to a lock smith and he can cut a key.
Yes I would love to see,please 😊😊.
82 is the best year of wings!!!!!!! love this stuff
A bit over a decade ago I restored a 1977 GL1000 , if my starter switch should fail I just have to use the kick starter . A real fun bike to ride.
Honda gold wings are built to last forever great job putting that one back on the road
Great find, hope you get it all together
Yes PLEASE film it. I love doing that stuff as well and watching others. Everytime I watch others theres always somerhing you can learn, Thank you for the videos.
Pre reverse gear. Very nice. Wow, great find, tons of potential, I get them in my shop now and then, and they are always pretty fancy. Fun to ride!! Comfort and power.
Hi from the UK, yes, go for it, love to see these classics get a new lease of life..
Stick rings, maybe spray some oil down cylinders help it turn over smoother.
Just get an ignition switch, be amazed, and everything will probably start working. The wiring on those is nuts dude.
Wow these are my favorite bikes and you can't beat the comfort of the seat especially when you're sitting on the back.
My wife fell asleep on the back of my aspencade.
I think it has broken rings or something on the left bank of the Boxer, oh bout those Honda's deserve to be restored!
Thanks for the video!
Great Video. You guys are truly blessed to be working together and having fun.
Thanks for sharing.
Let’s keep the goldwing content coming!
Put the barn find goodies on the other bike, can't wait to see the vid. THANKS
Another episode would be fantastic can’t wait to see it all swapped over 👍
Very awesome my friend
yes would love to see you transfer everything over
Yes I would like to see that
Of course you can,it’s a Honda.
The left carb bank is flooded rich. And the air cut off valves are probably shot.
You are exactly right. That was the problem 👍
Yes do it I would watch it
Oh, that poor girl. Hope you can make her shine again!
Yes how cool then the swap is even cooler. May try some sea foam in the engine before the swap.
Would love to see the rebuild 😊
First time I’ve ever seen a bike start out of sheer fear. Fear that if it didn’t start you guys might do something else hideous to that poor bike. 😢
😂😂😂
My dad had a 1981 GL1100 in black it was my favorite bike sadly my dad was killed in a car crash do to an intoxicated driver and we had to sell the bike because my mom doesn't like motorcycles and i was only 6 years old. I wish i could find and afford one
I have revived 5 Gold Wings 4 GL1000 and 1100, at one time I had 7 Wings, One was an 1800. I still have 2 Wings and an Indian and currently collect cars. Always carbs brakes and fork seals love old Wings.
They are a great ride. We have it up an running great now. 👍
Hell yeah man. I would love to see it. Bike is great looking.
Make the change.
Yes would like to see you do the work.
I would definitely like to see you build the bike.
I seen a guy at road track and trail in selinsgrove Pennsylvania couldn’t have weighed a hundred pounds use one hand and walk a gold wing backwards and just like magic it went riteup on the center stand slickest thing I ever seen I had a 900 ninja of the 84 variety
“There is nothing better than a Goldwing “~S. surgeon
I have been off a motorcycle 🏍 for a long time, so if I ever got a touring bike it would be a Can Am Spyder ,it has 2 wheels in the front,would be a more stable bike,love the videos keep them coming 😊😊😊.
Never rev an engine like that after setting for years.
Yes it would be nice
Yes, I would like to see you video switching parts over to get a running bike. I bought an identical Aspencade as this one brand new, and had it for 10 years. Same brown color. Traded it off on a Harley in 1992. Have always regretted trading it off. Should have kept it. It was a bear riding around in city traffic, but boy was it great on the highway. I just subscribed to your channel and an looking forward to your videos on this bike. Ride safe!
Я из России.У моего знакомого точно такой байк стоит.Небольшая неисправность есть. А так вообще на ходу.Классный мотоцикл!
Same as the one I bought about 20 years ago, had 10 years with few issues, 11 th year I had to do a full strip, frame had rotted through by petrol tank and on bottem frame rail which was removable. Petrol tank had also rotted out. Did all that and then sold it as it was getting too heavy to manoeuvre. S😢till miss that bike.
Like to see you put both together and make one good looking bike so hope you video the progress 👍
Thats not smoke coming from the left side exhaust is fuel, thats why it went through 1 gallon in 3 miles had the same problem with my 76
You are exactly correct. It was a stuck float in one of the carbs on the left side
I had a Goldwing for 10 years and we had it service once a year.
My wife and I didn't drive the motor bike in the winter it gets colder in Tasmania Australia for 9 months of the year.
When we sold the bike it was the saddest day.
Absolutely swap parts have a perfect running goldwing bike
I had one I called and talked to the head of the gold wing club he said those belts can last to over 100.000.000 miles
I'd love to c the series of the bikes transfer. Hell, I love ya'lls videos period. I didnt even no u had posted. It didn't alert me. Just happened to show up on the main page when I refreshed it. Would love to c more posts from ya.
Weird note on this, but it feels good to know I'm not the only one who's taken to calling it Peanut Butter Blaster.
I am amazed that you would risk no brakes
beauty bike safe and make new life,
You should have said, "no brakes, but we have PLENTY OF BUSHES." Hitting trees to stop is pretty graphic. But hitting small bushes should be fun to stop.
Yeah, please do the swap and get one good running bike. It would be neat to see the process on video.
Sad you guys did not do your research before touching this beautiful motorcycle. The issue with the starter button is the screw underneath it that needs to be loosened a little. You also overtightened the screwed on the valve cover which will definitely leak soon. This bike requires everything to be torqued correctly. I hope you guys decide to read up on how to restore gl1100. I usually do not criticize anyone on the Internet but unfortunately gotten really sad seeing this video. I know you mean well though :)
Get over yourself bud... this bike was left to rot
Yes id like to see it
Yes let’s see it!!!!
A complete disassemble reassemble project. Nice basement project for a winter .
Yeah. . . You gotta do it - subbed hoping!!
Enjoyed this video and would definitely watch a video where you swap parts over the the donor/parts bike
A fyi , you don’t drive a motorcycle. You ride it!
yes please
100 percent yes
I've owned 11 Gold Wings still own 2, One is the first one I bought. Watch out for the timing belt there is probably stuff in there..good luck!!
I really enjoyed this vid guys awesome❤
Would love to see you restore it.
yes yes
Yeah let's watch you do it
totally wront srat working, first cover off, then sparks off looking cylinders, and take carburets off and clean all, then blaster to cylinder stay one day, then try move engine, not take battery and start,
Yep do it ill watch in england
Sounds good.
...DO IT! 🙂
Yes let’s see the process
I've got a 1983 Honda Gold Wing Aspencade with California Friendship Sidecar if you're interested.
Interesting… what area are you from?
Thanks for the offer. But we are in PA it’s a bit to far from home…
Bought a bike on online auction, front end damage. When it arrived, truck driver helped me unload it. Front wheel scraping tire so we didn't realize it was in gear until on the ground. Must have been in top gear when wrecked and no one changed, as the foot shift was bent against the frame and clutch cable broken. Engine was fine, but forks and frame by neck bent.
You guys are brill❤
Yes, do the swap!
I'll watch the reincarnation. I had a 83 Aspencade same color. Check the rivets on those comstar wheels, they sometimes get loose.
Of course go for it
Timing belts in cars are usually changed 60-75k
Be cool to see you do the swap
Yes please. I wanna see goldwing build. By the way, You sound exactly like the guy from the RobotCantina channel.
Yes!! Let us watch you swap out to the better bike!
Hey guys, just found you and subscribed, I follow bearded mechanics also and live in southern PA, ride an F6B wing, my buddy also has one too, we both retired, but would be cool if you could get a few of us to ride together this spring or summer, if you want barn find bikes, also have a 1974 Z1A I restored.
This is Tom for got to tell you that it's a 1200..cc
Found a great barn find, gave a nice opening about why he loved these bikes...then they attacked it hammers and screwdrivers. WTF! 😮😢
You bunglers don't deserve this motorcycle!
Why not give all the fasteners etc a good soaking with penetrating fluid and leave it overnight ? Not impressed with your early efforts at hitting things with pliers etc, rough as feck 😱
Good video, I would like to see how it turns out. Wouldn't it be easier to just take the good parts you need on the parts goldwing instead ? That's if you have a title for the Aspencade
It would have been easier most likely. But you are right, we don’t have a title for the aspencade . The finished product turned out amazing though 👍
Want to see the parts switch transformation
Just subscribed to your channel❤
Do it lots of us would watch it
yes, I want to see you swap all the parts over to the parts bike.
Sure we'd love to see it transform into a new beginnings
