Honda GL500 SILVERWING 1982 (C) USA information

Honda GL500 SILVERWING 1982 C USA


The Honda GL500 Silver Wing was a mid-sized touring bike introduced in 1981 as a variant of the CX500 series. The GL500 engine was similar to the CX500 engine, but had a more reliable transistorised ignition system, so that the stator could contain only charging windings, and thus put out more power for operating lights and electronic devices commonly added to touring machines.

The GL500 also sported Honda's Pro-Link mono-shock rear suspension, and was available both as a naked bike, as well as an Interstate model which included a large factory fairing and hard saddlebags and top-box. This made the Silverwing look like a miniature GL1100 Goldwing.

The brand name was resurrected in 2001 with the Silver Wing scooter.
