Hello from Ontario Canada

#1

Post by TorontoGL »

Greetings from Ontario,

It feels good to be naked! it took me some time to get my registration work but here I am. Mostly into CBs for some time, recently (about a months ago) came across a 1978 GL1000 (with obvious vetter and hondaline stuff) was parked in someone's backyard under a tarp. Some elbow grease and another forum's help (since my registration here was not through).

I now have in my garage a 1977 GL1000 Red, 1980 GL1100 interstate Black. I shall be starting two separate threads on each bike and seek your help and experience to give these amazing bikes a second chance to live and provide joy!

Cheers,
Honda gave Wings
