Who built this one? GL custom in Oklahoma
I keep an eye on the custom builds on here, but if this one has a build thread I must have missed it. Lots o' rake and a single leaf spring rear suspension:

Re: Who built this one? CL custom in Oklahoma
Yes, the leaf spring seems familiar but don't think it was on this bike. But this is very original.
Bikes at present:
80 GL1100 Interstate: Now a Cafe Racer called DRAGON WING.
81 GL1100 collecting dust with about 300,000 miles, known as BLACK BEAUTY
2008 (I think) GL1800 Nice bike but as exciting as the family sedan!
76 GL1100 yes, 1100 with 1000 heads and cams, being customized
A fleet of parts bikes awaiting resuscitation or customization or abandonment

Re: Who built this one? GL custom in Oklahoma
that is certainly an interesting way to strap a bike down on a trailer.
Giving bad advice is worse than just saying "I don't know."

You are correct and thanks! The other Goldwings here out-voted me on this bike.
This is likely going to be a long-term project. Should be fun!

I agree. If that was delivered by a transport company I would not be pleased with the way that was tied down.
