It's a naked goldwing. What else makes it naked?
I'm being honest here. What makes it naked??
Maybe I am misusing the term. Windshield, bags?

I thought so too.
Riding position was strange ... even after risers and off-sets on the bars.
Weren't prone nor sitting ...
The motor was unbelievably pipey. But with that braun came a lot of noise and buzz transmitted to my ass and hands.
The fairing/windshield was useless.
It was top heavy on the street and just plain heavy on dirt roads.
They are nice, reliable & pricey. Exactly the same features and dependability you get with the asian market with only a 20% larger price tag.No recommendations for the BMW bikes? I've never been on one; just curious about opinions. Seems like they are nice touring bikes.
Have you priced Valkyries and Gold Wings? The BMWs seem a little cheaper miles for miles. I'm talking used of course.They are nice, reliable & pricey. Exactly the same features and dependability you get with the asian market with only a 20% larger price tag.

I was wondering what it meant. To me, I was thinking the bike is bobbed or had all the flaring removed. I enjoy motorcycles but some of the lingo escapes me.
I while back many years ago, crusing old sale ads for bikes. Saw late 70's gold wing that had been stripped down to just the frame, motor, controls I thought it was dam sexy without all that stuff on it.
check this easy to find example of what I'm talking about.

The GF watches a house for a friend. The friends husband is an overseas contractor.
He has three similar bikes. I believe they're CB750's? Two of them are cherry. Ones for parts. Next time we check the house, Ill pay attention to the badging on the bikes. Seem awful big for 750. Unless they made them 4cylinders with 4 carbs.

Yep — at least since '78been a while since I was on a CB750 but I thought they were inline 4's with 4 carbs. loved jap air cooled inline 4's. moved on to kraut boxers.
I own a DL1000, closest to a UJM these days.
All the CB750's were air cooled inline fours with four carbs, the first year sand cast models fetch a big buck
With a $4k budget i hope he has a truck to get it home.Get ready Mitch...lol Im a buy American kinda guy.
