If you click on the link and then go to "colors and 360" click on 360 spin, you will see all the angles you need. Enlarge fist, really does show the whole bike very well.

You know how he likes to stand out from the crowd, especially "those" sport-tourers.
Love all wings. I could take that 6 cylinders and put it in a car and I would love it.

But I need the trunk. I confuse everyone.... and I like it that way. July 2014 will be my next wing. Let the count down begin.

Dan was never worried about the wing when I had it. He had the bazonies to ask me if he could ride it the first time he saw it. I had to really think about that one, but once he said I could ride his Vic, I gave in.

An extra 1k for a center stand, self cancelling signals, and heated grips? Wings always had a center stand. Now they're going to be an option.

Yep, also no mention of ABS, cruise control, what the instrumentation is or isn't installed or available, availability of reverse, etc. etc.

Still an interesting concept, though. Playing catch-up with the Road Glide and the Vulcan Vaquero.

I am kinda liking it, A guy I ride with on a regular basis has an 84 naked GW and that ol' bike runs fast and hard and it's a 1200, I like the Idea that Honda is putting out a large displacement bagger. I am sure that someone (if not Honda) will make an optional removable trunk.

Love the new look. Actually told my girl a couple of days ago that at some point I will get a big ol' Gold Wing.... Will I be able to maneuver such a heavy bike? That's a whole other story! And the price is a little high... But really nice! But when I get one, I think I'll go for an older one with the couch behind me so my girl can be comfortable on our long rides...
