1983, did the same thing to my 1979 Goldwing. After stripping, & modifying the exhaust, made it a Hard Tail. Square Bar Steel, heated, twisted, then upper / lower tabs welded, then chromed. I really miss that bike...

I love how you dive right into it and just go for it. I always liked the original naked Goldwings from the mid to late 1970s. One thing from a personal protection angle, whenever you're sanding or cutting anything that makes fine particles, especially fiberglass, please wear a breathing mask of some kind. It'll save you a lot of grief later on in life with your lungs.

Love that you did this, “on the cheap”. Re-using the existing seat and exhaust saves hundreds and still looks and functions well. Old Goldwings are a steal IMO. You get a full liter, or more, engine. Soft but sturdy suspension that can easily handle long rides or unmaintained city roads and spare parts are readily available since they made thousands of them. Good project, informative video.

I like your style dude. A few years ago I stripped a vintage BMW naked similarly to how you did this project and made a sort of street scrambler out of it. I made more money selling the parts I stripped from it than I paid for the bike. It's so much more satisfying spending time doing the work than to just pay for bolt on stuff. What you have done here exemplifies the beauty of the relationship between man and machine.

Good job on the cheap, Brutha! I did something like that with a GL1100, though I went further and chopped the tail end to drop the seat height down. Of course, I had to move the fuel tank above the motor. Mine looked like a bulldog. I never had a workshop or tools like you do, though. I'm kinda jealous about that. I used up a lot of elbow grease along the way and then became disabled before it was done. I had to sell it. Now it's hangin' on the new owner's shop wall as a conversation piece. Not all was lost, I guess. I gained a lot of experience. Enjoy yer ride, Bro! The Gold Wings are an awesome machine.

I ride an '87 and have thought about stripping it down. Problem is I ride long distances and the luggage and weather protection helps. Last year I rode through snow in early April. Hot summer days I wish the fairing was gone. I have a small aftermarket speedometer. Idiot lights (neutral, oil, high gear and low fuel) can go in the little panel over the handlebar clamp. I have had a tractor seat on it for a few years. Hard to put my feet down but I can ride all day. I have a hard time getting much done because when I get back to the US I want to ride every day and the Wing is my only bike. I like what you did with the instrument cluster. Cut down to a reasonable size.

Slick build -- seems like a spiritual successor to the old 79 Wings before they added all the fairings. Was scrubbing the video after my first watch, not sure if you ever resolved the hyperflashing but in my experience with LED converting old metric bikes, tossing in an LED rated flasher relay vs wiring up resistors usually solves the problem. I know some bikes use 2 relays, my 80 KZ750 had one for the signals and a separate one for the 4 way hazard
@SmokeyFromThe715
@SmokeyFromThe715 8 месяцев назад
Thanks for watching boss! Appreciate the compliment and the advice. In the vid I did end up fixing the fast blinker. 4 years of engineering school finally came in handy and I was able to calculate and order the right resistors to get a better flash rate with the LEDs.😂 appreciate having guys like you always willing to help.

I like what you did here.. I had a 1983 GL1100 Aspencade that I chopped into a cafe style bike too.. I managed to to retro fit a set of analog gauges and ditched the digital dash that my bike came with. I had to go through every single wire in the front harness to see what it did and how to make them work with the analog gauges LOL .. Wish I still had that turd of a bike :)

Great work, nice result! I'd have gone for a more café racer humpback seat personally (I was doing a similar build i.e. a black café racer with a 1990's Triumph Bonneville but the weather over here just killed the project and my garage). You have access to a brilliant shop!! A walk in powder coating oven?! That must be for professional use surely!

@@shovelchop81bikeralex52 haha! Thanks for the feedback. The seat could definitely be better, but for my first time doing a custom seat I’m happy with it. I used to powder coating for customers but haven’t for a while since I started a new job. Good luck with future projects!

Great job I'd 1000% buy that's bike if it were for sale, would be cool to see a newer goldwing motor swapped into it. Also use some Mothers aluminum/magnesium polish on the forks and any other parts you didn't powder coat to make them shine

Superb video and astonishing build! But brother, pleaseee, look after yourself! Easy to forget being young and feeling indestructible, thats exactly how i feel myself! Breathing in fiber glass is bad, bondo even worse! Paint is no good too... only got one pair of lungs! Anyway loved the music, loved everything in this video, many thanks!

I bet it handles nice because they're pretty good stock except for the side clearance. I'm curious as to how much weight you were able to take off the bike😊
@SmokeyFromThe715
@SmokeyFromThe715 Месяц назад
@@ahbalone I definitely need to weight it some time. I’m actually pretty stoked on how it handles. Super smooth with the flat 4, and goes straight like it’s on rails. In the turns, I definitely struggle more than my buddies on lighter more aggressive bikes, but I’m feeling good on an all day ride while they are standing up cause they are bouncing around on a hard seat.

I can agree with that. If you look up cafe racer gl1200 seat on eBay there is one for sale that i really like. The only problem being that it is $310 with shipping which is more than 50% of what I have into the bike. So for the price of the $15 leather that I bought I’m kinda stoked with how it turned out. Plus when was the last time you saw a gator skin seat??😂
