Honda GL500 parts on Ebay
Reply Quote
There is a seller on Ebay that has stripped a Honda 1982 GL500 and has a lot of parts for sale. Most of the items have starting prices of 99 cents but buy it now prices much higher than that. He has an ignition part that starts at 99 cents but the buy it now price is $99.00. There are no bids on any of his items so it looks like there may be a few bargains here. He mentions that all these parts came from a running bike. If you click on this item number – 390165272071 – it will take you to this seller. When you get to this item click on “see other items” and then search again for Honda GL500 and it will list all the parts he has. I thought I saw someone here looking for a center stand and I believe he has one listed. I am tempted to bid on one of the spark boxes, just to have a spare while traveling.

Never worry about theory as long as the machinery does what it is supposed to do.

I hope his Kawasaki H1 & H2 parts were off of "no hope" bikes.  Those things bring big money - well worth restoring.

If you want to see why there are no bids ... look at the shipping prices. $12 to ship an ignitor is more than a little high.

His shipping is high but I thought that if the high bid was only a couple of dollars it would still be worth it. Just a thought. I guess I will just watch and see what kind of bids he gets - if any. BillRod
