    08 GL1800

    I honestly don't expect there to be any interest in this here, but whatever...
    For sale is a 2008 Honda Goldwing “Premium Audio” (GL18P). So you don’t have to check, here’s a link to the KBB trade in value: https://www.kbb.com/motorcycles/hond...etype=trade-in
    The “Premium Audio” version is the “base level” bike for 2008. It’s not ABS. It’s not Airbagged. It doesn’t have heated seats or controls.
    I’m the second owner of this bike. I purchased it in ~2011 with 7200 miles.It currently has ~69K miles on it, but is being ridden so the mileage could be different when you see it.
    All bikes of this type have been customized. I’m going to try to start at the front and work my way back.

    • Black powder coated front rim.
    • CBR F4 “Gold” Brake rotors.
    • “Heavy” front springs from Racetech (1.1 kg/mm) installed.
    • Traxxion Fork Brace
    • Truck “bed spray” black front cowl
    • Honda “factory” Fog lights
    • Baggershield front window
    • 12V adapter “hidden” install with USB output in left front bag.
    • Audio input aux jack in left front bag.
    • RAM dual ball mounts both left and right hand grips
    • Chrome “intake” inserts.
    • Chrome “shark gill” inserts.
    • “Custom” Belly pan (made from diamond plate aluminum).
    • High friction foot pegs (these are very non goldwingy, but under any reasonable circumstances your feet won’t slip off).
    • Kuryakyn Goldwing Passenger armrests with built in Cup Holder.
    • Kuryakyn Luggage Rack, powder coated in black.
    • Honda “factory” whale tail
    • Honda “factory” whale tail integrated brake light
    • Hitch hardware for Bushtech hitch.


    Installed in the last month:

    • Avon Cobra AV71 130-70HR18 Front Tire
    • Avon Cobra AV72 180-60HR16 Rear Tire
    • Front Brake Pads
    • Yuasa YUAM620BH YTX20HL-BS Battery


    Title is in my name and in my possession.
    If you want to test ride it show up with cash.
    NESR Price is $5800

    I’m sure 10 seconds sitting in the passenger portion of this La-Z-Boy will make her forget all about the looks of the ST...

    My wife literally falls asleep on the back seat sometimes.
    I usually only figure it out when she "jumps" because she realizes she's been asleep.

    My wife read a book on the back of one of these when we rode it around Florida.

    she has caught herself doing this on the ST. She then remembers to turn on the Cardo starts belting out songs.

    Nice Jason, did you need to show the new owner the method for solo picking that beast up after intentionally resting it on its side?

    At least the new beast will be 100lbs easier for that trick. Congrats on the new wheels, looks awesome.

    Lol. I did not.
    In my experience most people don't appreciate me tossing their bike on its side, even if it's a fun little parlor trick.
