I find the gear box whine on my Goldwing annoying. I have listened to other GL1800's and they seem to all have that whine. Too bad since the sound from the pipes is very pleasing.
So I'm cruising around the other night and heard this familiar whine coming up from behind me. My first thought, here comes a Honda. Sure enough, it was a nice new Honda crotch rocket.
What a nice bike this Goldwing is. I intend on riding it for at least three more years and then trading up to something, not sure what. That whine, however, might be enough to make me switch bikes a little sooner. Must be right in the annoying pitch range for my ears.
