    Successful people build each other up. They motivate, inspire and push each other. Unsuccessful people just hate, blame and complain.

    Finally a 6 speed manual transmission

    All models come with ABS


    So the F6B is now renamed as the Goldwing for 2018

    AND the Past full Goldwing is now the Goldwing TOUR for 2018

    The video was good and very exciting to me. I can't wait to see the bike in person. I'm already talking to the Minister of Finance!

    One thing I noticed on Hondas website site I thought was odd and haven't seen before is, the engine has Aluminum Cylinder Sleeves. I'm sure the engineers at Honda know better than me but I wouldn't have guessed they'd pick Aluminum for a bike that's capable of hundreds of thousands of miles. But that's not gonna stop me from getting a new one.
