Something Heavy This Way Comes

Not Triumph related, but such a biking institution we just had to review it sooner or later...


Honda Goldwing GL 1800, Test and Review - Big Bike Mad


Motorcycling Marmite - you either love it or hate it!:biggrin:

 

With 900 lbs to push backwards its handy!

Actually its just a bit of assistance that comes from the starter motor...

The odd thing is that once you're sitting on it the weight just disappears. Its the easiest low speed bike to handle I've ever had.

Check out the review which has some video...

Thanks MonkeyJoe.

The thing about most of those buttons is that they are actually almost all for the radio and CB! I had one for a year and never touched any of those on the left hand control panel. Its a button-fetich's delight but that aspect doesn't do anything for me either. The most incredible thing about the bike was simply that it feels light and nimble when riding - and is amazingly easy at low speed. Exactly what your intuition says it won;t be. Incredible. Overdue for an update now though - even 'Wing fanatics agree.

For all the unbelievers Here's a bit of video showing how agile they can be: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nrMQ3QwyPo
