    I've owned this Honda Gold Wing for the last 14 or so years. My wife and I have toured all over country on it. I'll have to say it has been one of the most enjoyable motorcycles that I have ever owned since I started riding 47 years ago.

    Nothing darkside about it, just a bunch of custom accessories.

    I've been an avid motorcyclist since I got my license at 14. I did a lot of drag racing on them during my teen years and moved over into dirt track racing in my early 20's. I also built several custom Harleys and British bikes. Over the years that I've been riding, I've owned over 60 different bikes. If I only had a few of them back!!!

    I've got a lot of old bike pictures I'd like to post on the site as soon as I figure out where I should put them.

    Andrew, just put them under the brand indicated. If there is not a place to put them let me know and I'll make the place.

    My Current Ride Empty bike photos

    Ya Andrew

    For sure I'd like to see your bike photos too. I haven't had a bike since the late 70's.
    I had a few bikes--nothing like all your experience, but I still enjoy seeing them
    and we've gots tons of bikers in my area. My last bike was a really cool early 70 Sportster
    pretty tricked out with a custom frame/hard tail,springer front etc. It was a pro
    built bike that i bought second hand, and it was a beauty. It would probably be uncomfortable
    for me today--I'm a tad older than then. I sold it in 1980. But boy that thing was a dream to ride.
    One set really low and it just seemed to corner and handle effortlessly. I just road it around the
    nearby county. The sporty tank was angled upwards pretty severly and looked totally cool,
    but as it still had the OEM filler lacation it couldn't even hold the factory 2.5gals? or ?
    Anyway not much gas-couldn't go to far.
