    There is also a picture of the cockpit of the new wing. It looks pretty cool.

    Does this link work? Maybe someone could post the pic?

    Unfortunately, the link works............now I want whatever arrives. All they need to do at the factory is do a "Helibar" look-alike.

    I'd like to see the engine bumped up to 2400cc..........the recessed passenger floorboards look nice. Drool is starting to drip on the keyboard.

    Most likely a nice well-done Photoshop rendition of a "maybe" Wing and B.


    The waiting begins????

    The link above of the cockpit appears to have on the right handlebar two buttons.......D and N....looks like an automatic trans to me and no clutch fluid container on the left. They must have copied my old Guzzi-matic and also it looks like the button left of the N and D appears to be M. Looks like that could be a manual override-type paddle shifter button. Hit M at the light and take off and shift with the D ??????????

    Guess it's just me but I don't like it. Too me it's getting away from what a motorcycle looks like!

    Guess I don't get it. Doesn't look any further from "what a motorcycle looks like" than the current model.

    yes it looks nice if it's accurate, or at least 50% accurate.

    I've thought all along it would be a slight shelter design change (and colors) and updated electronics and led lighting. Same motor and frame etc...is my guess. But let's see what we get...

    Part of my worry if you like, is that the buttons and switches - if upgraded - will have shitty tactile feedback and poor finish like the CTX 1300's. That would suck.

    While still a mystery, I wonder if any of the new models of Goldwing will have a large part of their electronic switches and wiring out-sourced to China then assembled in Japan?

    I don't like the dash inlay. It looks like an aircraft cockpit. I also don't like the design of the front end to include the headlights and the turn signal housing. Like I said, this is just my opinion.
