I just bought my second Goldwing today. My first was a 1978 that I bought back in about 1990. I sold it about a year later due to wife/kids/alternator issues but have been wanting another since.

I took up sailing shortly thereafter and was quite content with that but after moving and losing my pier slip that meant that the boat had to go. While I am still passionate about sailing and do it every chance I can, I knew that it was time to get another bike and I knew that it had to be another Wing.

I just bought a 1980 Wing stripped down, just the way that I like them. It has blown fork seals that I need to get fixed before getting it on the road, I can't wait to get that done and get riding.

Anyway, I look forward to being part of the GoldWing community again.

Welcome home again. We sure could use some more mid- Atlantic riders around here. I live on the other side of the Capitol Beltway and Annapolis is always on my way to the shore.

Welcome from the soon to be frozen North. Never realized wife/kids could have alternator issues, but sounds like it's all good now

Wives and kids can have issues that one never would have thought of. Take my 14 year old daughter for instance, once I got past the alternator issue her attitude control box went completely bonkers and I can't find a replacement anywhere. She's only a 1995 model, you would have thought that I wouldn't be having these issues already. I should have stuck with the Wing...
