    Price isn't bad. The only names that come to mind are Triwing and Triking brand conversions. Will they let you take a test ride? The 1998 had the transmission of a Valkyrie and its better. Is this it?

    This one has a Roadsmith conversion.

    This is just my opinion, if it were a Champion, Roadsmith, Lehman, Hannigan, CSC or Motortrike it would be worth the price. An offbrand not so much. The Triwing is a solid axle and the Roadsmith I posted is an independent suspension long wheelbase trike. Look at them both, you may like the second one better. JMHO. YMMV. A little more food for thought, here's a 2000 GL1500 with a Motortrike. https://www.barnettharley.com/index....test/15635U/0/

    That's what I read in the ad and that's a really good price, especially for a Roadsmith. You may want to look at that one too.

    $4000 less and a year newer I think the Roadsmith that Trike Lady referenced would be the one I would be looking at.

    That's a screaming deal for a trike.

    I can show you an ad where the dealer needs to rethink the price, a 1988 for $16,994. This will sit on the lot a very long time as you can get a GL1800 early model for that price. https://schroaders.com/Motorcycles-H...f-7eb21bb9cbe8 I'd not want an early GL1500 for the reason of the carb control unit being hard to find, if the off idle stumble recall had been done and if not there are no new parts available to do the recall. Early ECMs will be fun to find and the wiring harness is different. The best thing to have done with a bike that old is to sell it for around $2500.00 and let it go and not to invest in making it a trike. The seller needs to stop smoking a left handed cigarette, as I can get newer for a little bit more: https://www.niehauscycle.com/invento...2056-10214637i

    The 1998 has no recalls. The 1988 for almost $17000.00 may, different technology between the two wing models.

    The 1998 is good to go. If I were to buy the 1988 I would have a rough time with electronic parts, as it is a first year and had issues.

    The Triwing conversion is one that the average citizen can buy and install on their motorcycle it is one of the few that is sold to a non trained installer. Most conversion manufacturers require you to attend their program to be an authorized dealer. I found their kits worth it for older GL's especially the 1200 as they were the only ones making a conversion for them. If you were going to keep your 1200 I suggested it, but if not there was the Voyager kit and that could be transferred to another bike.

    If it's solid axle, be sure and give it a test ride, it could ride like a logging truck. Surely this is not a HD TriGlide, that's a solid axle trike, you mentioned a triflyde, or something like that in your original post, not sure who's confused. Just be sure what you're buying, you do not want a money pit. nor do you want a logging truck ride. If you have a friend that knows trikes, take him with you for advice.

    I'd be kind of leery since the salesperson doesn't know the brand of conversion is on the Wing and second why would a Honda dealer that does trike conversions be using a conversion that a DIYer would use? A dealership would have a trained installer from a major conversion manufacturer, unless its a trade in and was done by an individual. It could also be a home made conversion. Just some thoughts I've had on this.

    I just traded in a 1997 wing with a Roadsmith kit because Honda doesn't make many of the repair parts anymore. In my case I was told it needed a new water pump but that was a misdiagnosis. Either way, Honda doesn't sell them anymore. That goes for most of the body parts as well as after market parts. Most of the parts are available on Ebay or Amazon but I don't know how long that will be the case. As for the price, the dealer I traded it to listed it on his website for $10,000 and it was gone in a week. It had 53000 miles and in great shape. That should give you an idea what is a legitimate price for a GL1500A. Good luck.

    I know but nobody around here wanted to work on it or take the time to find the parts. I'd been wanting an 1800 for a couple of years now so the lack of parts gave me an excuse to buy one. (at least that's what I told my wife. LOL) Seriously, mechanics around here wanted nothing to do with it. I now drive an hour and 20 minutes to go to a dealer I feel I can trust. Most of the mechanics at the dealerships near me are just kids.

    And to add to this, I just bought a 2010 Goldwing with Nav package and a Lehman Monarch II for $22K.. Total mileage on both units is 6000 miles total. Take your time, there are some bargains out there especially this time of year.
