Just purchased a clean OEM '89 Honda FL400 Pilot - very original right down to the OEM date coded tires (now removed to save - new aftermarket tires installed). Also included were the optional Hondaline nerf bars (not installed), optional Hondaline dust cover, owner's manual and OEM complete tool kit. Pretty rare unit to find in good shape (especially here in Canada as they were never sold new here - produced for only 2 years). Anyone else own one?? Seems funny to be riding on 4 wheels. :lol:

Thank - you. Very, very nice FL350, Thornton. I need a FL350 Oddy to round out my collection. Again - hard to find here in Canada.

If you're in Canada you may want to take a peek on Ebay. There's a 350X with a Goki and it's a take out motor for under 4K.

The price is right and it's Canada, figured I'd let you know...

A few more pics. Once the weather gets warmer - will clean and detail to my specs. Planning on installing new polished aluminum rims (love the look on Pilots). OEM rims will be powdercoated white and put on the shelf.

Thanks, Thornton. I appreciate that. I do have a lead on a FL350 coming available in the spring time. From the same seller - same or better shape that the Pilot.

Thanks, Dirtcrasher. Much appreciated. If I remember correctly - was listed on eBay before at much high price. I guess he is giving it a second go round. Would like the Goki though.

Cheers, buddy.
