Hi from Southeastern Pennsylvania. I do not currently own a Goldwing, am planning on purchasing a 1200 at some point, saving up. My last touring bike was a Moto Guzzi 850. Due to economic necessity I am riding a Suzuki GZ250 as my primary vehicle. It is a good bike for commuting and errands. 75mpg, 320 lbs wet, simple and inexpensive to maintain, cruises 65-70 all day if need be. Not in comfort though. That's why I'm saving for a Wing. I would like to travel and see the country some more. I am glad there are great forums like this one to help me learn more about the Goldwing.

Thank to all for the welcome! You all made my day today. A big reason the Goldwing is a great bike to ride is the great support and fellowship of all you Goldwing riders. Thanks again!
