My wife went to a sewing thing this weekend and all the ladies there are about her age and older, let's say 50 +. Somehow the subject of my Goldwing came up...don't know how, and three of the ladies there said their husband's bought a Goldwing and it was just too big for them to handle. I can't hardly imagine that. It took me a couple of weeks but now it's not any worse than riding any other bike, handling wise.
My question, Do you think these guys were never riders to start with and got the big Wings on a whim? I just can't imagine buying one then say it's too big to handle. Or have Goldwing's pretty much maxed out their weight capabilities. How many guys bypass Goldwing's in favor of smaller, quicker, bikes? (not a question, just random thought).
NOT selling mine, NEVER.
