Wanting to trade: GL1500SE for Adventure tour bike

Post by Britwanders »



Hi all. Due to the pandemic, my lifestyle has changed dramatically. Now the Goldwing, as stunning as it is, isn't the correct bike for my new lifestyle. I'm now going to be living in a van and hauling my bike, which will continue to be my primary form of transportation. So, I need a more versatile bike as well as one that is much lighter-weight. My bike is simply gorgeous - the multi-hued red. It has a few minor cosmetic issues, but one doesn't notice them unless looking for them. It only has 75000 miles on it and runs like a new bike. It was a rich man's toy, garaged with only 30k miles on it when I got it. I'm the 4th owner.

At this moment, it needs a new rear tire which will likely be replaced by the time I get a response. I would like at least a 650 tour as I fully expect to be riding distance at some point. And since it's not looking like I'm going to get much of a boost in my finances any time soon, it needs to be in very good shape. I'm presently in Las Vegas. I'll add pictures as soon as I figure out how. Or pm me and I'll send you pictures.

Yes, based on his profile and his post I assume that was the bike he was referring too.

Would love to, but can't find an "edit" option. It's a 1995.

Thanks for the link.
