Great pics.

My mom's boyfriend has 2 G(oldwings). He has one almost like the pink one, not sure what year, but I believe an 80's 1100. Looks like this...



He just bought a pristine 1994 1500, just like the maroon one that Dave posted. I actually saw it tonight for the first time. Just miles ahead of his old one. Apparently by the mid-90's Honda perfected the art of super-slab riding. She's a big beast though. I was a little intimidated to throw a leg over, being used to my bike like 500.

My wife wants something with a backrest and armrests. Shes done with sportbikes, and wont even look at the KLR. I wouldnt mind a harley dresser either, and a yamaha venture would be cool too for the right price.

He picked this 94 up for like $5500 from an older gentleman that just babied it. Sure it has miles, but its a tourer. If your wife is picky, my mom approves of the 1500. High backrest, armrests, cup holders, aftermarket heated seats.
