I have been trying to purchase a Goldwing with little success. Here is my question. I just looked at one last night. 1984 Goldwing Aspencade, 78,000 miles for $2195.00. The bike was in pretty good shape with normal wear signs. We start off with the owner thought it needs a tune up because after riding at 55 when you slow down it sputters a little. I thought no big deal. Then a problem with the adjustable air pressure in front and back he says I was able to get this to before and eventually does. I am still thinking no big deal. When I put the bike in first (by the way started right up no problem) I could not get it out. Owner stated that it was difficult to get into neutral. I was thinking more like impossible and never did get it back to neutral. I was unable to ride the bike as it was raining outside. Am I looking at good deal or was I right to not purchase?
I am I being too picky? Is it reasonable to expect to pay this amount of money or a little more and get a bike that actually is reasonably solid? I don't have a ton of money to spend on repairs right away. Any help would be appreciated.
