I like the windshield wiper on the Goldwing and the 3 wheeler :cheers:

That 3 wheeler is straight out of a Transformers movie! And putting a windshield wiper on a Wing is about as idiotic as putting an airbag on one IMHO. No, I'm not opinionated. :icon_razz:

Which bike show is this? I thought the Tokyo IMCS was later in the year, same with Yokohama...

I like that three wheeler. Very sharp!

Couldn't they get a larger wiper for the wing? Looked like a 747 wiper. RainX. Thanks Tony, nice 3'Lr.

At the end of the video I thought I saw a 2015 date.

Ahh, I didn't watch the whole video. No sound here at work so videos rapidly become pointless. I'll watch it at home. :icon_lol:

I was under the impression that lawsuits were the reason production of three wheeled vehicles was halted. Personally I love my two wheel drive F6B.

Those were trikes... these are inverted trikes which seem to have better control and stability. Especially with the tilting factor built in. I'd wager that they are more stable and sure footed than a two wheeled motorcycle.

I'd really like to try a tilting type inverted trike. Especially in the corners.

https://youtu.be/QGwv7azZhSsThere is a motorcycle wiper called PEER CLEAR.com,,I had one on my 2002 Goldwing,,They work great IF you use a TALL Shield for your PASS.,,When the pass. wants a TALL Shield for help with the BUFFETING,,the wiper worked for 5 years, without a scratch,,Just clean the screen every time you stop for gas,,that helps keep the marking of the shield to a MIN.

I had a tall windshield on my full wing. I don't like the look of the wiper (or the tall shield for that matter), but I admit, that wiper would of been real handy last year when I couldn't see jack in the pouring rain. I was trying to look around the side and/or standing up to see where I was going. Not my safest or proudest moment! :shhh:

Three wheel vehicles present the rider with a different set of handling dynamics than two. Those who ride again have mastered them.

All I saw on the video was a bunch of "prototypes" sport bikes, scooters, a goofy looking trike and a couple of older model street bikes...GoldWing is same'o , same'o with new paint....Hopefully Honda will come out later in the year with "newer" stuff that fits the "bagger/cruiser" market, but I doubt it...With Victory stopping production , sales in general down on road/street bikes, it will be interesting to see what is in Ma Honda's crystal ball.....

https://youtu.be/QGwv7azZhSsthe PEER CLEAR wiper was a cool deal,, you just tapped the touch pad on your Right master cylinder, and the wiper would make ONE pass,,
and if you wanted to leave-it on, you just flipped the switch,, you also could adjust the wiper to make a 35 degree swipe or a 45 degree swipe across the shield,,after 5 years of using-it, I did not have any scratches,, after my wife stopped riding with me, I got-rid of the tall shield,,Loved-it ,,KennyU-SEA.
