Have it on good authority the only change to the wing until 2010 is a colour range change.

I was looking forward to a possible new 2lt restyled wing incorporating all our comments.

personally i would of bought the older valkyrie interstate if it had a reverse... for the one reason,  "it sits lower to the ground".   the new wings starting in 2010 at the change of the season should be more driver friendly when stopped at a stop sign so us short people do not have to do a balancing act holding up this 1000 pound bike  using just our tip toes.               a 6th speed tranny would be nice and put the CB radio and the CD player as a standard option like the 1500 instead of selling us that rediculous high price honda line CB and CD disk player.             i am sure there going to come out with a new 2000 CC engine just to keep up with or out due every one else thats making them huge motorcycle engines......   come on honda i have 2 bikes,  a road glide for around town and local stuff, then the wing for cross country riding.  help me narrow it down to just one bike for all......

Amen Bunkey I agree. Specially the part about having to pay for this and pay for that just to get what you want. Dont get me wrong...I love this '06 I have and my wife loves it too, but I would have liked to have a few more options but had to settle for the "stripped down" version.

How about going retro like some of te automotive companies have done?

Imagine it. A six cylinder 2000+ cc Wing with the styling and easy machanical access of the early 80's styling. Would make it really easy to bring back the Naked Wing. And it would get rid of the "bug face" of those god awful headlights.

yup,   then again,  a 2000 cc old time valkyrie interstate with a reverse would do good for me, along with all the bells and whistles

Yes, they are going to start putting 1500 trunks on since they have always worked just fine.

Possibly an early look at the next GoldWing?

But looks more like a sport version of a BMW.
