Would you rock it? 2013 Gold Wing F6B

[Casper]

[Casper]

I would.

[The Punisher]

Link fail!

[Helmutt]

Wow, new age Streetglide by Honduhhh? Different

[Casper]

Link fail!

Works for me.

[The Punisher]

Works for me.

Weird! Still no work for me.

I'd rock it with some crazy loud mufflers, just to piss off all the other GL guys. I love the look of it, almost same kinda look as the Victory Vision 8 ball. chopped w/s, no trunk and all blacked out as any good bike should be!

[vw151]

I think he meant to post a pic of this.

[Tpoppa]

Seems like a second gen Valkyrie to me. I would like to demo one even though it'll be years before I consider buying another cruiser.

[Pokey]

The Wing I have been waiting for.

[RHill]

How much $?

I like it, but need more pics.

Edit: after watching an advertisement on YouTube, nope. It has curb appeal, but once a rider is on it, it is lost. Plus it doesn't have the utility of a normal wing.

Is rock it. Around $20,000 I'll wait till the price drops. yeah throw some crazy loud pipes and blare some loud rock music. The colors will match my gear too.

i prefer the all black.. but.. no i wouldnt buy one

[Bad324]

I'd buy the all black one in a heartbeat once it hits the used market. It is actually making me debate not going through with a VTX bagger project I like it so much. Granted this is just by the looks and specs, could be a whole nother ballgame after demo'ing one

[Bad324]

None of the ammenities of a real Goldwing' date=' but all of the ugly. No, thanks.[/quote']

What is it missing from a regular goldwing other than obvious top box/recliner? Serious question as I've never even looked into what all the Goldwing has amenity wise

[Bad324]

actually the more I look at the pictures, the more and more I'm digging the red

[Hailwood]

Not my cup of tea, but it's a pretty neat idea.

I do like the screen, though. Maybe they should figure out how to incorporate that into the touring platform. You need a tall screen, but not all of the time. That front end looks way better with the chopped windshield.[/quote']

Power windscreen, moves based on rain and temp

[mello dude]

I like the all black version except for the huge mirrors.

Give it a couple months and you'll own one. Your style of riding changes semiannually.

I am sure it rides and handles really well considering how rotund it is, but I just can't get past certain aspects of the goldwing...

- cost. It's $20k. I can buy a civic for less than that, and carry a ton more stuff, all while getting comparable (if not better) mileage in the car

- weight. I don't care if it handles well while riding, it's still 900 lbs. Motorcycles should not need a reverse gear.

- stereo. Again, there are certain things motorcycles just should not need. A radio is one of them. I understand the desire to have tunes on long-ass highway hauls, but helmet speakers for such occassions seems less... I don't know... less pussy-douche-couch.

I completely understand why some people adore the goldwing, and it is certainly great for touring - I just can't get over the fact that it has crushed (what I think of as) the soul of motorcycling. There is supposed to be a little noise, a little wind, and a little discomfort. Those are the trades you make for the thrill of riding. It's kind of like owning an older convertible: They flex in turns, the top leaks when it rains, they're noisy on the highway, etc. - but then every so often, there's that one perfect 77 degree day, when the sun is out, and you just love your convertible. That's how I feel 90% of the time I'm on a motorcycle, in spite of all the sacrifices.

The goldwing is too polished for me. Almost numb. Like a player-piano. Technically correct, but no soul.

[Kent2406]

No!

[NinjaNick]

No, I'd buy a car instead for the price.
