Seen the new Honda DN 01 with it's radical looks and push button gear change will this be the future for the Goldwing when they start rolling them out of Japan ?
They are fitting the new 5 cylinder VFR with the same transmission, and i suppose if it is good enough for ferrarri it may be the future for the wing.
I would welcome such a move what do yoou people think ?

To me my wing is just as useful as a car until winter gets in the way. I bought my wing to ride and enjoy every day possible. I did not buy it to just see how pretty it looks in my garage. Like most of the harley owners I know.

I don't get the sport cruiser/sport tour thing  , I guess it is due to the fact I have never been a sportbike fan anyway. Don't get me wrong I have had friends that rode sportbikes, I even watch the races on tv pretty regular. But there has never been a sportbike I looked at and said I like it, I always kinda felt the sport cruise/tour thing were for people that wanted a sportbike but didn't want their friends to laugh at them for looking like they were humping the gas tank  .
That thing looks like a Night Rod raped a Hayabusa.

| Don't like five cylinder engines unless they're radial types hung on the front of an airplane.

| Cool concept bike. Good for those needing automatic transmissions. If you want to know what it sounds and feels like (windwise); change your windshield out for one of the shorty, sporty aftermarket wing windshields. You feel like you're on a heavy crotch rocket and the audio is useless.
