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"!
That's an INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL BUILD you did!! You're right, Honda should have designed the Goldwing this way to begin with! Thanks for sharing this with us, hope you have an amazing week!
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.
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.
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
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. 👍👍
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.!.
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.
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.
I bought one in Phoenix for two thousand dollars. Used it a few years and sold it for two thousand dollars!!!You can probably do all kinds of things to these great Honda Motorcycles!!!
I appreciate everything that you've said and hope that you'll check out my website if you haven't already to look at other builds I've done if you do need any inspiration or ideas please let me know your project I'll be happy to help
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%👍
Nicest modified Goldwing I've 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
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?
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
One of the best custom goldwings, I have ever seen.
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"!
Ok this thing is so dope! My favorite bike on CZcams!
Excellent job sir.
Wow! Thanks man!
That's an INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL BUILD you did!! You're right, Honda should have designed the Goldwing this way to begin with! Thanks for sharing this with us, hope you have an amazing week!
Incredible craftsmanship
That bike is sick man. I have a 1991 fxr. Gotta love the old bikes.
Just incredible, and HIGHLY inspiring!
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!
Wow. I know this bike is in magazines? I'm a harley guy but I'm on this all day!
Great work. You made a great bike even better!
AWESOME job sir! looks fantastic, I would love to copy your work on my GW project!
Outstanding work - Been looking for an '84 to build
Yeah im in love with that. I would make the pipes bark just a bit more.
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.
What a beautiful job you did the paint and everything is perfect,nice ride
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
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.
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.
That is fantastic and pretty fond of the eighties goldwing fearing myself but that is a beautiful 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

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.
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.
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
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!
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. 👍👍
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
we need a video of that thing in motion. amazing build
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

Incredible job my man

Ive never been a fan of Goldwings.. But man is thing thing a work of art.. Very Nice!
Absolutely beautiful bike, I love her ❤...
I freaking love that thing!
that's pretty sick bike! wish we had more factory bikes like that!
Dude!!!! That bike looks amazing!!! Congrats ✌🏽
Seriously...amazing job!
That is an amazing build!!!
This is a very cool ride. This bike should give you decades of fun.
Fantastic cool bike, extremely good looking! Very good work! Greetings from germany!
FANTASTIC motorcycle !! Well done !
Wow, what a stunning bike!!
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.!.
Love the seat and fender. Gonna mock up something kinda similar this week
Also where did you find the brake lights?
Amazing bike. I would love to own this.
Well done. Beautiful!
Fantastic video love all about bikes looks like a Honda road glide LOL
Great job. That looks really cool.
Such a sexy looking bike, amazing job love seeing these old gold wings brought back
Wow awesome build!
It's like an early F6B. Gorgeous build!
That is a gorgeous motorcycle... WoW
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.
Dude thay is a sweet build. Great job.
This is a very cool build. Thanks.
Beautiful machine well done
This looks amazing u did what Honda should of did back in the day
That is incredible!
I knew of a Goldwing cut down to bobby, pure bobby without anything else but Motogadget dash. But this takes the cake!
Omg you friggin killed it dude!!!!!! Amazing 👏
Amazing you are a creative wizard !!!!
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.
That's very cool. That fairing looks really good. I wouldn't buy a Goldwing, but I would buy that.
I love this. I really want to do something similar with my '87 would really love to see how you made that seat pan!
Nice bike dude. I built 2 of then already man.
I have 1984 Honda Gold Wing too it’s all original. You sure know how to build custom wing motorcycles 👍
Thank you, I really appreciate the kudos!!
Thanks a lot….now I’m buying one because of you 😅
wow man is the best customized Goldwing I ever saw !!! beautifull
this bike looks really really nice...greetz from germany

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.
This is looking banging!!
Outstanding! Really nice. Love it.
Thank you for the kudos

Damn, guys it turned out awesome. I want one...
Beautiful build
makes me wish I still lived in Fenton, Mo.
Dude you are a pro bike builder mate. This bad boy looks like it just came out of a professional shop.
