Gold Wing or Triumph Rocket, I would guess. Don't know much about those bikes.

Gold wings have their fuel tanks under the seat. Honda Valkyrie Interstates have floorboards, and saddlebags.

Too far back for running boards.

Bag supports.

I don't think I've ever seen a Goldwing with a tank like that.

If it were a steel tank like on the early ones it was squarish.

Later models "the tank" is just body work.
