I worked in a Honda shop when the Wing first came out. It was a sensation. The sales guys used to start them up, balance a nickel on the cam chain cover, and rev them up to 3,000 rpm and the coin would just sit there. Try THAT with a Harley - or any bike from the 70s for that matter!

Nice. I bought a new 1978 Goldwing like this with the same color I added a color matched Windjammer fairing. The maroon seemed darker than this but hey that was 48 years ago. What an awesome ride. I rode chain drive for years and It took a little to get used to the drive shaft in corners. They said to accelerate through the corners and that will keep it from trying to fishtail.

Great job! Reminds me of taking my first 78' Wing completely apart, engine too. Still can't believe I did that, repainted the frame with "Plastic Coat", by Duplo I think. Got it back on the road, but that was decades ago. Still have that one, and after 262,000 miles, I replaced it with another 78'. Still have the second one too. Wouldn't mind of getting rid of them, they're taking up space.
