Nice combination. But the lines of the EML and Goldwing just don't get along. Somebody should give the EML design folks a french curve or something. Looks like they got stuck in the straight edge era.

Thanks, the 15in radial tires and leading link make it a pleasure to drive.

EML must have heard you, their newer ones have curves.

My wife and I have owned three EML rigs.  I bought two of them as kits and assembled the first one on a 1978 BMW R100S. It was a single passenger model.  The second was a 1981 BMW R100RT with a double wide sidecar.  On the EML/BMW airhead kits, you had to remove every nut, bolt and screw from the motorcycle and re-assemble the bike on the new frame that came with the kit.  They provided no instructions because they wanted you to have one of their dealers put it together for a nice, fat bunch of money.  I laid everything out on the floor and just figured out where everything was supposed to go.  The third one that we owned was a single passenger model on a BMW K100 RS.  I bought this one used from a man who paid the St. Louis dealer to paint and assemble it on his K100.  He only rode it for 2k miles and then passed away so I bought it from his widow.  The EML rigs are among the best handling sidecar rigs that have ever been made because they come with automobile wheels & tires, leading link front forks and are engineered to perform and last.
Your Honda rig looks really nice.  Someone should snatch it up quickly.
