1983 Honda Silver Wing, 499cc. Registration number APV 630Y. Frame number PC024000602. Engine number CX500E 2033562.
In 1981 Honda released the GL500 Silver Wing, which was a mid-sized touring bike based on the CX500 engine. The GL500 engine was similar to the CX500 engine, but used the more reliable transistorized ignition system, which meant the stator would contain only charging windings and thus would put out more power for operating the lights and other devices commonly added to touring motorcycles. The GL500 also used Honda's Pro-Link monoshock rear suspension and was available as either a naked bike or as an Interstate model with fairing. The Interstate included a large factory fairing, hard saddlebags, and a trunk. This made the Silver Wing look like a miniature Gold Wing GL1100 Interstate.
APV was owned by Paul Cropp of Bridlington, in 2013 before moving to Scunthorpe with Ian Robinson later that year. Our vendor bought it in 2017. The MOT history goes back to 2006 at 61,284, rising over the years to the last one 2015 at 75,766, today it is 75,774 miles.
Sold with the V5C, MOT history and a single seat with back rest, it will need recommissioning due to its period of storage
