New Bike in the Garage

Yesterday, I picked up an immaculate 2012 Honda GL1800 down in Texas. The previous owner bought it after he learned of life threatening and non operable health issues. He wanted to ride one last time before he couldn't do it anymore.

Specs:
1800 miles (2379 now after 24 hours of pure enjoyment)
ABS
3 Year Unlimited Mileage Warranty
CB Radio
Audio Comfort Navi Package 3 w/XM

I was told I was the youngest (28) person to buy a Goldwing at the dealership. Go figure. It's been such a treat to ride. I finally had the opportunity to buy one and it's definitely the best large purchase I've made.

Very nice, congrats!

Great looking GL. I would have to guess it may take a while to become familiar with the functions of all those push buttons

Sweet ride... I miss my Wing.

Congrats. I had one just like it. They are a great machine. It many ways I miss it. oh well ride safe and enjoy

Always liked that blue. Congrats.

What is that bottle (sculpture) in the background?

Nice color bike.

Congrats! Since I wouldn't buy a GoldWing to take the wife on trips with, she made me buy her a Rav4 today! Maybe I should have bought that GoldWing!

Looks great! Enjoy that new ride!

Nice Bike! (Bob Donaldson Blue)

Nice bike, congrats. I had a GW loaner for a week that was that color. Keep thinking I might want one.

Great color! Enjoy that new ride!!!

I thought of that yesterday when we were riding. Was that the one he got hit on?
Congrats Cory! You found a very nice bike! I guess I'll have to slow way down on the ST and the Tiger so I can keep you in sight now. Lol

He got hit on the Red/Silver 2012. The Blue and Silver was the 2013... the last one he had.

Great color and figure I'll get one, one of these days down the road.

Omg same here! Mine got a RAV4 and I can buy anything I want for the fleet - as soon as she gets her pink slip! But that is a great buy and color!

Really nice add and find!

Nice bike Cory. You just might be the youngest GW owner In the country! Maybe we'll see it at ArkanSTOC?

If your wife wants you to buy a bike ,you buy a bike no matter what and ask the question later, or never. You can never have to many. Right.
