1. Proper glass windshield that a wiper motor can keep clean.
2. Adjustable height windshield, at the touch of a button.

I would second this. What a difference this would make to rider safety and comfort.

Cars have their windshield all surrounded with metal ,and rubber , and they still make a mess if they break... While I applaud the windshield motor ,and blade combo... I would be a little nervous about riding behind Glass, unless it was in a particularly well done glass,and film sandwich !!! Perhaps a form of almost un-scratchable lexan ?? SilverDave

There is an adjustable windshield from fire creek that makes so much sense - I bet honda could even do it better

| So has the Suzuki 650 Burgman Executive, I just bought one a couple of weeks back. It makes me wonder how I managed without one for the last 30 years of riding!

Sounds good to me. I am always raising and lowering my. I have even raised and lowered it with one hand while the cruise control was on. It would be safer with an electric one. Mother Honda please think about.....

Might as well be a photoshop print, since unless you live in Japan, Mother Honda won't sell them to you!!!

Pete, I see a gold mine. Can you say world importer?? I bet you could sell thousands of these. I know it doesn't rain much where you live , but in other parts of the world a wiper would be great.

| Gotta wonder why it's not an option in the rest of the world. If it was, you'd have the GPS model, ABS model, wiper model and then the GPS, wiper; ABS, GPS, wiper; and the ever popular ABS, airbag, GPS, and wiper.

More like you would have the Premium Audio, Comfort, Navi, ABS, Airbag, $2500-of- worthless-plastic-to-get-a-wiper (level6) version if they keep the way they did it this year. I've heard that many dealers are quite upset, and there have not been any Audio/Comfort (level 2) machines released since January.

I'll bet there are other significant differences also.

The perfect Wing...
Electric windshield, electric center stand, winshield wiper, at least one accessory sockett. That would do it.
