I will take that dilemma off your hands...always wanted naked wing. What do they tip the scales at with a full sump and without fuel.

About 600-650 lbs I believe. But with the opposed engine and the tank under the seat it's all held pretty low. Wings are surprisingly agile.

It is probably a 79 since it has the comstars as I think the 78 had wire or was that later? Don't know the wings very well, make that very much about them. CV carbs can be a pain if not cleaned very very very well.
Just checked Motorera... 78-79 has the Comstars whereas 75-77 had wire wheels.

Oh yeah, the seat goes! Needs front turns, valve cover gaskets and carburetor work. Not sure about the rims. Either dirt or refinish. I'm sure a lot more.

65K on the clock. Bought new by his Grandfather with all service records. I have to get into it cheap as $375.00 in shipping.

Will see. It is the right color for a Wang.




Right color but wrong bike. 65K miles....no way.   Just my opinion...

65K is nothing on a Wing.

May be, but I wouldnt buy a bike with 65K. And I'm sure a lot of other potential buyers feel the same. Different story if it's a keeper....

No, doesn't go that far East. Several in the Portland area last I looked. Talking with a guy on a CB77 however.

The last bike is very complete. Corky was just passing through there. Might of been worth looking at. Very rare Blue also. Pretty cool.

Are repro exhausts available for the old models John?  If so, most any other problem can be handled...Larry

Not that I have seen. Honda made so many changes to the mufflers. I ran into this on the CA78. CA95 builds are for someone with a lot of patience.

I probably should have looked at this one a little closer. Corky has several parts bikes. It is very complete.

Wow, Portland is loaded, I would have thought they would be left coast expensive.

That blue '59 is really cool and appears to be a good deal.  I don't think I have the patience for one of those......yet.

Prolly could have got it for $500 and says he has the title.   Good investment.  Too late?

Pretty sure Corky is back in Idaho. Was in the area New Years Day.

Chain guard hard to find but best to do one with a parts bike. Cool bike.
