Extraordinary build sir! I've got an '83 gold wing - formerly the Aspencade variant - full dresser...ugly AF maroon/brownish whatever. Last fall I finished a cafe build of a '78 Yamaha XS400 that I'm really proud of... this goldwing is next - gonna be a full restoration down to the frame. It's a bit of a tribute build for my big brother "Moose" who was killed in a motorcycle accident 8yrs ago. This was his first bike that he bought from a family friend then sold to a different family friend when he bought the Harley that he lost his life on (typical story of an elderly lady who didn't see or hear him). That family who bought it from my brother eventually bought a much newer goldwing and, knowing my connection to this bike, asked me if I wanted it and signed over the title to me (honestly didn't have much sale value anyway as it was (and still is) in rough shape. Wish me luck...gonna be a lot of work! Cheers, - Jens

I have never been a fan of the cafe racer craze but your build is on another level. I’m old and currently am/was restoring an 82 wing.

Once again, your build is absolutely stunning, fantastic workmanship and everything blends perfectly with the flat 4 wing engine.
