I just bought an 02 model in red, with 25k,it’s awsome cruising about on, lots of cool extras to add, love it, great review I might add. 🇬🇧👍
Thanks for the thumbs up Gary, glad you enjoyed. Wow, an 02 with 25K on the clock, I hope that's miles no KM's! That's only about 1300 a year, not even run in! The previous owner must have taken it around the block once a week! Probably too cold to be out riding today though? Thanks.

The previous owner hardly used that bike
Since I had my 1800 , it would be 5 years now since I had my 2006. And I love it to bits
And I often have it checked over and serviced every 2 years.
I have this bike . Absolutely love it . I’ve put 50 k miles on it in 4-1/2 Year’s . Pull a trailer on a regular basis. Handles like a dream . I’ll rate it a solid 10
Jealous! 😢
I had my 1800 for nearly 5 years now. And I love it to bits. I have it checked over every 2 years. I went down to Portugal on it. And she has been very good.
Since I had mine, I have done some modifications to it. I added a MP3 player, a dash cam, a sat nav, Bluetooth, and extra lights. All good.
Thanks for the fun and informative "Rev View" as I'm looking at an '05 with less than 10k miles in a couple of days, even in the same color. The only thing I didn't care for is winding up both Hondas under zero load for no reason and banging into the rev limiter. To each his own but that's nails on a chalkboard to me and I used to race two strokes.
Thanks for the good vibes, the REV VIEW bike is a Honda RVF400 and they are as tough as nails, completely over engineered. I raced one for years and the only time people ever blew them up were when they tried to hot them up. I get where you are coming from but they are an electronic rev limiter so it's not valve bouncing. Enjoy the Goldwing my mate still loves it. Ride safe and Subscribe 👍
I am falling in love with this bike!
Love makes us do crazy things! Go get one! 😂✌ Ride safe and subscribe.
Had 3 wings in my time.loved them all. Best street bike for long dest. Rides.❤
And don't have one now? That needs to change! Thanks for the watch. 👍
I work on many GL1800's and I can't say enough good things about them. Best of the best in my opinion. I actually know of one GL with over 800k and it's still a runner.
Thanks for the watch. I couldn't even imagine one of these with a chair on the side! 800K WOW, How cool would it be to see it clock over the mill! That would be a video moment! Stay safe and Subscribe!
I just bought my 1st gold wing
Back in 2002 I bought a brand new GL1800. Illusion Blue like the one in the video. I’ve owned motorcycles my whole life. I’ve been on the street for 38 years and had 10 years riding before that. I’ve had many many motorcycles and the 02GL1800 was the best bike I’ve ever owned. The motorcycle you look at is not the motorcycle you ride. It feels way lighter than it is. Feels super stable at all speeds, it does everything you ask of it and it does it well. I drove mine daily like car until there was snow on the ground and the bike really does a good job of it, very practical with all the storage.
The guy that designed that bike is the guy that used to design the 500cc 2 stroke Super Bikes back in the 90’s. Compared to previous Generations of GoldWings, that Gen changed the game. I think it was from 01 to 17. Up until 10, they were built in Ohio.
Good video
Thanks mate, great history lesson for people just getting into these bikes. I agree I rides so well you wouldn't know it was that heavy! Ride safe and Subscribe 👍
Pure beauty!!! Will love to have one like this. Hope I will have a luck to find one.
Keep looking, you will love it! Ride safe and subscribe!
It's the bike that every other road bike tries to be 👏
Well I just put a very nice stud in my stable, He is a 2004 wing, one owner, With all the add ons available, The owner was a dealer,, So its well set up!! Have yet to take it in trips,, still getting gear together,, BUT I STOKED on the adventures it will provide for me,, CJ. Point Roberts Wa,,
Lucky bastard! Get out and enjoy it, I'm jealous! Ride safe and Subscribe! ✌
I have an 05, great bike, cruises so smooth.
I agree 100%. You don't have to have the latest model to live the dream!
i have the exact same bike for the last 17 years. nice bike for sure. transmission is a bit clunky but it is strong
I just bought the 2005 anniversary model. No CD and poor sound, but few miles and seems to be a great bike. Right turns after yield, on country roads, are a bit more challenging than my 1200A, but I'll learn. So far, a wonderful upgrade to my latest Deauville 650. Of course - 5 times the price :-)
Lucky Bastard! Eat those miles up! Ride Safe and Subscribe!
Nice. I'm getting a 2010 delivered soon. Buying it at Peter Stevens Adilade and they are shipping it to Geelong for me cause I'm at Wyndham Vale . Noted your Wall to Wall stickers, not done it however I'm in the Blue Knights club. See you around mate..
3:34 "2 metres 635 cm" - wow that is a long bike 😂🏍🏍🏍 😂 just kidding with you. Very nice videos and reviews sir. Keep up the good work -subscribed 👍
Thanks mate.
I bought this same bike, same color in 2005. My first Goldwing and I still have it in my garage with low miles. I agree its about as good a big bike as one can get and I've owned touring bikes from BMW, Harley and Yamaha. Wing is the best of them overall. I got the 6th gen a few months ago, a lightly used 2018 just to have another Wing in the garage. No time to ride it yet so be interesting to see and feel the differences.
Hey Keith, 2 Wings now that's just being greedy!! You gotter get on it and ride though. You're a long time dead! Ride Safe and Subscribe!!
@@CompleteRider Yep time to get out there. Work and family life from 2005 until recently was in the way of riding big time. I am now retired and looking forward to being on 2 wheels a lot more! Time to get that cross country trip in too.
Enjoy 😉
Just bought my first goldwing, it's a 2008 totally standard, one owner with only 4,050 genuine miles, absolutely stunning... Its going to remain totally standard.. Hopefully with a lot more miles on it... 😁
😮Wow, 4050 original miles! That's like 300 miles a year. It's a museum piece! That's awesome! But I'd be checking the tires, if they are the original ones they'd be ready to fall apart! Stay safe and Subscribe! 😉
@@CompleteRider lucky for me, the guy that owned it was well off and a stickler for details, before he sold it to me, he had it serviced, valeted and brand new Bridgestone tyres put on, it's stunning, there is a RUclips video of the bike when he had it for sale, but I'm not sure how to add it, you can Google/RUclips, Harvey bowden, he is an amazing man, cheers, * sorry 4,570miles, I got carried away... 😁
@@chriscurrie5597 Bargin, I'll look it up, Thanks and enjoy.
@@CompleteRider thanks for the reply, keep safe,
Checked it out on RUclips Chris, it looks real nice. Well done. I just figured you were in the US, no wonder it's got such low miles, you need to bring it to Australia where you can do huge miles in the middle of nowhere all day every day!
hi john here test drove a goldwing last year will be my next bike
Hi John, two words, Lucky Bastard! The miles I could clock up in Australia on one of these! Enjoy and stay safe.
I took off the tall antenna off and put a short chrome bolt in the hole. I like to kick my leg over when getting on and off the scooter
I have an '11 Concours 14 w/ 15k miles now and am going to look at this '05 Goldwing in Dark gray sunday from original owner with 12k miles... I might have to get this damn thing now😢😅
That's just being greedy! 🤣 Ride safe and Subscribe ✌️
Just bought this today. Pick it up in 2 days
Lucky bastard! Enjoy it for me.
It's a Burger with the lot 😎🏍
My happy abandon just got this 2005 goldwing in silver color, but we can find information about the radio antenna issues, no even to download an owner manual to see if he can fixed.
Do you know where we can fiend the manual?
Best place to start would be one of the Gold Wing Owners Clubs on Facebook. Someone there will be able to answer your questions easy. Thanks for watching, Ride Safe and Subscribe!
@@CompleteRider thank you!!!
Great bike . I’m trying to find a half helmet that same color I have that bike
👌 Probably have to get one sprayed to match! Awesome color that's for shore! Stay safe. 🤤
The six cylinder Goldwing was not introduced until 1988. 1987 was still the GL1200
The GL1500 came out in 1988
I own an 08. Love it. Pics on my channel banner
Very nice bike and I love your channel name!
@@CompleteRider …. thank you!
Hi
Thanks for the sub mate.
Any chance of reviewing a BMW k1600❤️
I'm on it!
Am I missing something? It's Jan 29, 2021 on your post and you are reviewing a 2005 Goldwing!? All Goldwings are great, but there are many changes since this model.
That's the idea of the channel, we will look at new bikes but also have a look back at older bikes as well. Great if you are in the market for a seconhand one or just seeing how far bikes have come over the years. I love two wheels and an engine, old or new, fast or slow. I don't need the latest greatest to be happy. Hope this helps you to understand the channel. Thanks for the interest.
Great review on first gen Goldwing Gl1800, much appreciated. Some say these are the best riding wings of the bunch…comfortable easy maintenance, lots of accessories available you just can’t beat the reliability of the Gen one 1800 Wing!
I sure love my black 06 great bike
