The speedo is Honda, so anyone contemplating purchase of this beauty, it may have more than 21,000 miles :laugh:
Speaking of Honda, what's the consenses of this new goldwing someone "painted to their liking". I still will keep my repaint ought to be outlawed stand. Can you believe a $22K motorcycle someone does this?

When I saw that picture it immediately brought to mind a red and white 1958 Oldsmobile station wagon I once owned. NOW I understand why everyone called it the "Circus Wagon." :laugh:

I think you nailed it Nate, my old neighbor had a tractor just like that one only not in that kind of shape.

Call me crazy but I don't think that wing looks all that bad. I've seen factories produce worse looking color combos. The titty pink 76 KZ400 S with the painted gray fenders comes to mind.
