These NEW Aluminum cylinder sleeves (Excess Heat and friction are not ideal for aluminum including aircraft grade aluminum) Is this Hondas way to shorten the life of a Goldwing to just 125,000 miles so that they can be rebuilt with new sleeves or maybe sell more Goldwings?

I think Honda is going after a different market with the choices they have made. How many sport riders put 6 figures on the odometer before they are onto their next scoot?

I am interested in seeing it in person, but have no desire to be part of their test market. I should be good for another 4 or 5 years.
