Howdy from Utah.
Got my first bike about 6 years ago. Was a Yamaha 750 "triple". Got married and ended up selling it.
Now that I'm single again, last year I purchased a 1984 Honda GL1200, and have had a smile on my face since.
Not a big time rider, but this year I have started to venture out on it some (longest ride 200 miles.)
Looks like a good forum.

Cool...did you repaint your Wing a flat black color? I want to see a bigger picture of it.

Was like that when I got it. Not black, but a dark blue. They removed everything honda from it (still says interstate on the back). Has a diamond plate lightning bolt on either side of the tank and almost looks like wings on the front also out of diamond plate.
It does need a little work on the carbs (gas milage sucks right now. but needed new tired front and back this year . . . so they will have to wait until next year.)
Biggest pic I have of it right now

Welcome to TMW.
The bike is in good shape for a 1984.

Welcome! It's good to see another Utah Rider on here. I just discovered this site a couple of weeks ago and have enjoyed getting to know the people on here and getting my questions answered.
